Winter Break Information

Finals are scheduled for this Wednesday through Friday, December 17-19. Below are basic guidelines for finals. If you are unsure whether or not you have to take finals, please reach out to your teachers.
1. Students enrolled in a 9-Week course MUST take the final exam. There are no exemptions for 9-Week courses.
2. For non-EOC courses, students must have 3 or fewer attendance-related events AND at least an 80 average in the course to be exempt from taking a final.
3. Students taking finals are only required to be at school during the block which their final is given. Students must remain in the classroom after finishing their exam until the bell rings for that block to be over. Attendance will not count against a student on these days if they DO NOT have to take finals.

The Tiger Marketing Departing has brought back their custom shirt business that they operated pre-Covid and has re-branded it as Tiger Outfitters. They will be doing custom and bulk orders for the community as well as selling Tiger Merchandise at school events. Stop by and see them at tomorrow night's home basketball game against Bolivar where the students will be making print-on-demand shirts.
