New information is included in the Class of 2024 section below.
Parking Lot Dismissal - Week 2 of trials
As we shared last week, parking lot dismissal (both timing and safety) were top concerns of our students and parents (as was shared in the district survey given earlier this year). To find the most efficient and safest plan, we have been collecting data on a few different options/scenarios. Our next week's plan is the following:
- All RHS parents must turn right
- All students exiting out of north exit must turn right
- All students exiting out of south exit must turn left
- All 9GA parents must turn left
- See picture below
This scenario will drastically reduce "cross traffic" and should be a safer method of dismissal. We appreciate your support in helping us to find the safest and fastest method of dismissal.
Reminders
AP Testing
AP testing begins next week! If you missed the information video in class, please watch that HERE. All information needed for testing is included in the video. For a recap, view the slides HERE, as well as the Parent Letter. If you have any questions, please reach out to Mrs. Zelmanski.
2024 SAT/PSAT Results
SAT/PSAT results become available sometime in early/mid May. Many students have already been contacted by CollegeBoard that their scores were available (if they chose this option when setting up their account). Regardless if students chose to be notified or not, they will be able to access their scores through their CollegeBoard account. The letter below provides further directions. If your student's scores are not available yet, they should be soon.
