Happy New Year to everyone! I'm sure I can speak for the vast majority in wishing you a healthy and successful 2012 and hope that we can avoid any more major weather-related events. With the New Year now upon us, I want to take just a moment and remind everyone that our first semester ends with the conclusion of our two half days on January 26th and 27th. Students will complete their final exams on those two half days and then begin the new semester on Monday, January 30th. I wish all students success as they complete their current coursework while preparing for those final assessments.
In light of the current schedule I also want to announce that we will not be providing mid-term progress reports as we have in the past. I encourage all students and families to view the updated Edline reports and communicate with teachers if there are concerns or questions before the end of the semester.
And finally, I am excited to announce that beginning today Monson High School will conduct an after school Homework Helper program. This new initiative, spearheaded by Mrs. Doherty-Lind, will provide an after school opportunity for students to gather and work on homework or study for quizzes and tests. The program will meet every Monday and Wednesday in the library while food and drinks will also be available. Student tutors will be attending to assist anyone. We expect the program will run until at least 3:00pm and perhaps longer if students are actively working on assignments or studying for an upcoming assessment. I hope this opportunity is found to be beneficial and productive for our students!
Until next time, take care and good luck as we wind down the first semester and wind up the new semester!
