Important Message to Seniors & Senior Families

[The following message has been sent to all seniors and their families.]

Seniors and Senior Families:

Here we are in what could easily be classified as crunch time for graduation. We are very concerned that if a senior was exposed to COVID after Sunday and had to quarantine from a close contact at school, that senior would be excluded from graduation on the 13th.  We would like to give you, as senior parents and students, the option over the next seven school days to keep your student at home for online classes to prevent the potential exposure and quarantine. We still plan on having all the in-person events for seniors and no student who chooses not to come to school in the next few days would be excluded from those events. 

Each family can make the choice of whether or not to send their senior.  No seniors’ grades will be negatively impacted by choosing the remote option.  However, those students that are working to improve a grade will be given every opportunity to do so.  There is no need to contact us to let us know which option you have chosen, but once that decision is made, it needs to be final. 

Making sure our seniors get to participate in all senior activities is a priority for us and with how this year has gone, we feel this is the best option to make that happen. Thank you for all of your patience, flexibility and understanding as we have navigated this strange year.
