ACADEMCIS
We are trying something new in campus today – automatic notification of missing assignments.  Hopefully the gremlins stay away and campus will generate an e-mail to the parents of students with missing assignments.  It would be nice to get some parent feedback on how this works on your end.   If you have any problems or questions, feel free to contact Mary at mary.ackman@k12.sd.us

Tomorrow is our extra help day – students with missing assignments or on “the list” need to be here at 8:00am tomorrow morning!  Parent notifications will begin at 1:00 today.  Teachers – make sure your grade book is up to date!

Awards night is quickly approaching – May 9th.  Seniors will bring Desserts, Juniors Salads, Sophomores Main Dish, Freshman Main dish, 8th grade Salads, 7th grade Desserts, and 6th grade Main Dishes.  Staff may bring a salad or dessert.
