Weekly Community Updates - March 22, 2024
Dear Students and Families,
We have one week until Senior Exhibition Day! Our seniors are working hard to get their presentations ready for next week. If you have a senior, ask to have them practice in front of you!
As a reminder, Thursday 3/28 of next week is the last day of 2nd marking period due to Senior Exhibition Day and Interim Week. Grades will be posted by April 17th because of spring break. This is a great time to log onto ParentVUE and check current grades by clicking "Grade Book". If you have any questions, please reach out to the teacher directly.
We are working on getting the next school year set up and one piece we need all returning families to complete is registration. Please make sure you complete your registration for the upcoming 2024-25 school year. Families will need to log into their ParentVUE account and click on "Student Registration 2024-2025 is Currently Open: Check Registration 2024-2025 Status" to start the registration process. If you have any questions or concerns you can contact our registration, Criss Galea at cgalea@jeffersonunion.net.
Interim week is April 1 to April 5. If you have any questions about interim, please reach out to your student's interim teacher. They will let you know if they are meeting off campus on one or more days. Lastly, spring recess is April 8 - April 12.
I hope you all have a nice weekend.
Take care,
Maritza Torres
