8TH GRADE PROMOTION ACTIVITIES – HELP YOUR STUDENT PREPARE!
As we head into the final quarter, we want to share important information about our 8th Grade Promotion activities. This is an exciting milestone for your student, and there are a couple of eligibility requirements to be aware of.
To participate in 8th Grade Promotion activities, students need:
- A CTL score of 2.5 or higher for the 4th Quarter
- No suspensions in the 4th Quarter
CTL scores are updated weekly and viewable in PowerSchool, so you can monitor your student's progress. CTL scores measure classroom participation and commitment to learning – they're separate from academic grades. These scores build throughout the entire school year, which means there's still time to make an impact! Even if your student is currently below the 2.5 minimum, the fourth quarter is the perfect opportunity to focus on commitment to learning and boost that score before the quarter ends at the end of the month.
TRACK & FIELD PLEDGE FUNDRAISER
Our Track & Field athletes are hosting their Run, Jump, Throw for the Finish Pledge Fundraiser on Thursday, April 2nd, at 3:30 PM at the KHS track. Support our athletes with a pledge per lap, jump, or throw—or make a flat donation here.
DRESS CODE REMINDER
As the weather warms up, please remind your student about our dress code expectations: shorts at least 10 inches from the waistband, shirts that touch the waistband with arms at the sides, and pants at the proper waistline. If clothing doesn't meet code, we'll ask for a change. See our complete dress code policy here.
