AFTER BREAK SCHEDULE UPDATES
The last day of the first semester is January 15th. So know we return to remote learning on January 4th, but it will be on an adjusted remote learning schedule. The change is to prepare students for the second semester. (see below)
ADJUSTED REMOTE LEARNING SCHEDULE STARTING JANUARY 4TH!
January 19th (Tuesday) will be the first day of in person learning for A day students. It will also be school picture day, so A day kids, dress for success! B day students will be here Jan 21 and 22. January 22nd is Picture day for the B day students! The last day of the 2nd 9 weeks is January 15th. Please encourage your student to stay up to date on their assignments
Please be looking for information from the district that will communicate whether or not your student is on A Day or B Day.
There may be changes to which day your student is assigned, so please pay attention to that information when it is sent out.
Counselor Corner

Renaissance Rewards Program: Bruins in the House!
We are starting a new program to celebrate Gold Card Students, Silver Card Students, Bronze Card Students and we are introducing the Grit Card
Gold Card Students are those who have earned all A's and are in most all of their zooms! Silver Card Students are on the A/B honor roll and again, show up and participate!Bronze Card Students might have the occasional C, but the are showing great work ethic and show up and participate! The new Grit card will be teacher nominated and will be recognizing students who have really stepped up their game. We will have weekly drawings for prizes from all four categories with the Gold Card Students having first choice of prizes, Silver next and so on. Each month we will have a larger prize drawing, (for example a $50 Amazon gift card, A Hoverboard and more!) Gold Card students will have more entries, then Silver and so on! So Show Up! Do your best on all your work, show up and participate!
Thank you to the PTSA, FRYSC and everyone who helped to support the new program!
