Hello Knight Family:
On Monday, December 16th, our National Honor Society Students, along with Coach Wilson and Mrs. Hart, will be hosting our third annual Haircuts for the Holidays. Any students in the district are welcome to come to the east gym for a free haircut! Our local stylists are volunteering their evenings and will be providing haircuts from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. There will be activities for those waiting for a haircut and homemade cookies baked by NHS members.
On Wednesday, December 18th, we will have our annual Cookie Walk during flex to celebrate the end of the semester. We will also be taking this time to recognize our December graduates.
Final Exams are Thursday, December 19th and Friday, December 20th. Final exam days have a 2:00 p.m. dismissal. Each student’s final semester grade is determined by a ratio of 80% for semester work and 20% for the final semester exam. On the second day of exams, students who have completed all of their testing and have no outstanding lunch detentions will be allowed to leave during 8th hour. We will host bus riders in the library and play games with a movie on the screen. Shuttle buses will run at 2:00 p.m. Our first semester report cards will be posted to students’ Skyward accounts on Friday, January 10th.
