Important Information


Staff Meeting - Important information will be provided at next week's staff meeting.   We discuss the EOC exams and the security requirements of the assessment.  The entire staff is expected to attend. Please see me in advance if you have a conflict with the meeting time. Thank you.

2020 Testing Site - A new tab has been placed at the top of this newsletter entitled 2020 Testing Information.  This will be the WGHS site that contains all things AIR.  Information is already being placed on this site in preparation for next month's tests.  Please check it out as you are responsible for completing some posted items.


AIR Exams - If you teach a course with an AIR exam, please make sure you have your students experience the environment ahead of the assessment. Practice assessments are available here and include many of the released questions from prior years.

Monitor Halls - Please stand at your door between periods. Not only does this help curb negative behavior, but it is also a nice gesture to greet the students as they enter your room.
College Fair - The Kickstart College Fair is Monday, April 20th.  Please encourage all of your students to attend this fantastic opportunity that is held at the HS.

Academic Awards Reminder - If you are an advisor to a club or group, please make sure you submit and present awards for the two ceremonies. Department awards are also presented at these ceremonies. Additional information was posted in the February 3rd bulletin.

Room 110 - If you use classroom 110, please make sure students are supervised.  A number of items have either been stolen or damaged.  The room needs to be locked after use.    Thank you.
