Every Day Counts!
Our Attendance Rate for August was 93%
We need you here every day Students!
IN AUGUST:
WHO MISSED MORE THAN 10% OF THE ENROLLED DAYS IN AUGUST
22% OF OUR 9TH GRADE
22.5% OF OUR 10TH GRADE
24.4% OF OUR 11TH GRADE
28.3% OF OUR 12TH GRADE
Absenteeism in the first month of school can predict poor attendance throughout the school year. Half the students who miss 2-4 days in September go on to miss nearly a month of school
Research shows that missing 10 percent of the school, or about 18 days in most school districts, negatively affects a student’s academic performance. That’s just two days a month and that’s known as chronic absence

Hands for Humanity
We are Hands for Humanity, a long-standing community of students at Locust Grove High School. We encourage educational rights and raise awareness on behalf of underprivileged students.
Over the last 6 years, we have collected hundreds of new toys and new clothes for homeless kids throughout Henry County. Our goal is to provide kindness through giving.
Our goal is to collect 700 New Toys.
The deadline to provide us with toys is December 12th. Please deliver the toys to Ms. Davidson. (Room. 127)
From our ESE Department: IEP and Accommodations
If your student has an IEP and is in 10th grade, please return the Consent form for Accommodations Request that you received in the mail so that they will be able to receive accommodations on the PSAT that is coming up in October.
We would love for our parents to join the Special Education Parent Advisory Committee (SEPAC). This is a group of parents that meet with ESE staff from our District Office and have your voice heard.
