Weekly Memo
Some thoughts for the starting school year
Hi Everyone,
I hope you all are having a wonderful week. It has certainly been chilly, but we have made it another week without a snow day. We have one more week until Midterms. Just a reminder that students do not need to attend a study hall, but they do need to attend Academic Service blocks. If you have specific questions regarding midterms, please reach out to the classroom teacher.
Congratulations to Nathaniel Plocisnki ('27), Zander Grinnell ('28), and Declan Mcafee ('27) for being accepted into the All-State Jazz Festival. These students will be participating in the competition at Camden-Rockport High School next week. Good luck to these musicians!
As always, if you need anything or have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out to Liza or me.
Thanks,
Amanda
Inclement Weather
Tis the season for delays and school cancellations. Superintendent Doak sent out the annual school closure letter back in October, but figured it was good to remind everyone about our procedures.
- If we have a two-hour delay, we start Block 1 at 9:50 (we do not send AM SRTC) and go through our entire bell schedule. If you have late arrival in your schedule Block 2 begins at 10:25.
- If school is canceled, we skip that color day and return to school the following day (all of our blue/white days are pre-determined).
- If Superintendent Doak calls a remote learning day we will follow the schedule below.
We try to notify everyone as soon as possible when there are changes to our school schedule. Superintendent Doak works closely with the highway department, the transportation department, and fellow superintendents to make the best possible decision for school cancellations.
