Principal's Perspective

By Carole C. Goodman

Dec. 2008/Jan. 2009

This has been an exciting fall with an incredible interest by our students in the presidential election.  The Board of Education voted to close schools on January 20, 2009, Inauguration Day; so we have modified our exam schedule. (It is posted on-line.) We will work to be as flexible as possible but please be aware with the condensed time-line to give the same number of exams and grade them by the end of the marking period, make-up exams will need to be by appointment, with the exception of the one scheduled make-up exam period. Students will be receiving a letter detailing exam information following the winter break.
