Finals are upon us! You must be here on the final days--there are no early finals. If you must be absent on the final day, a parent must call in to excuse you. Then, the teacher will issue a failing grade and post. When we come back January 7th--you have 2 weeks from that time to speak with your teacher and schedule the make-up exam. It is imperative that you do not wait for the teacher to speak with you as they have posted and are moving on to the semester 2 curriculum. Study the review packets well that you will receive from the teachers, go in for additional tutoring as needed. Quarter 1 percentage is 40%, quarter 2 percentage is 40%, and the final is 20%. Your transcript will be posted before January 7th--check it out in your portal to make sure you agree with all the grades posted. We wish you great success!

Are you aware that your student may qualify for a diploma seal? These applications begin in the freshman year so please go to the CUSD website: Teaching and Learning: Curriculum and Instruction: Diploma Seals. As of now, there are 4 seals a student may earn for their diploma. Each seal has its own requirements, so please read carefully.

Quarter 1 grade reports are now in the parental portal in Infinite Campus. Please contact the individual teacher with questions and concerns.
Parents, even though your student is growing and looking older, we ask that you monitor the weekly grades and email teachers with any concerns. Ask your student if they turned in the assignment late or took a test late and then follow up with the teacher to inquire when the late work will be graded. Please understand that teachers budget their time, so late work may take a backseat while they are keeping up with their own timelines. We ask you to monitor grades weekly until the day they graduate. This is the best way to launch them on to a successful path after high school. Email teachers directly with any concerns or questions; the counselor can only see the same grade report you see. If a student fails a class, it is expected the parent and student will confer with the counselor to set up summer school the following summer. While summer school is online for the most part, the finals are in person, so families must adjust any summer travel to the summer timeline. Counselors will have summer information in late January.
Time to make sure you have accepted your counselor's invite to Google Classroom. If you are brand new and do not see an invitation, please email your counselor at their @cusd80.com email to request you be added.
Look at this every week so you know what your counselor is doing with you!!!
Settle in with your classes. Get to know your teachers by going in for tutoring, even if you don't need it. Sometimes it is great to do your homework in your teacher's classroom after school...then if you get stuck the teacher is right there! Classes are more exciting when you develop a relationship with your teachers.
As we get more tutoring schedules from the departments, we will post it on this site under Tutoring. There are already some departments with their times listed. Plus, our own Link Crew offers tutoring every Monday and Wednesday with peers in room F103. Just go and do your homework and a peer will be there to assist.
Wed Aug 7 and Thurs Aug 8 was our Club Fair Days on the campus during all 3 lunches! Click Activities on the main website for dates and times clubs meet to get involved!
NOTICE: Any classes taken at a charter or online school that is not within the CUSD school system must have prior approval from the counselor and a contract signed. CUSD does not accept core classes from non-accredited and non-in-person exam schools, so please work with a counselor prior to registering students.
