Freshmen
Registration is now over. We are working on the schedules. Please note what you see in IC is not accurate as this is a work in progress.
The most common thing that freshmen do that leads to a rough year is they don't keep up on the HW. Do your HW, come to school daily, and all should be great in your world!
Please don't wait until you are feeling lost before you reach out. You should look at your grades every Wednesday in Infinite Campus. If you see a discrepancy, talk to your teacher immediately. Every Friday we want you to feel safe with the grade you are earning and viewing in IC.
Get involved and be your best you this year! It is a great time to be a bear!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Information that remains constantInfinite Campus Portal
Parents can view their schedule in the Infinite Campus portal and students were sent an email giving them a temporary ID. Number and password in the event they have forgotten the one they changed it to last year. We strongly recommend parents print off grades every Wednesday to share with their student and then again on Friday to ensure any missing work was made up.
Username: S+IDnumber
pw: s+IDnumber!
Helpful HintsSummer school is a great way to replace a failing grade or do grade improvement. Students may also wish to take physical education or comprehensive health to open up their schedule for more elective opportunities. Counseling strongly recommends retaking Algebra 1 for any advanced 8th graders that are not earning a solid A with out retakes so they have a smooth transition into Honors Geometry. Counseling also recommends taking 1.0 credit of physical education for students who want to participate in more than two electives their freshman year. Counseling also recommends taking comprehensive health in summer school so during the sophomore year this does not get in the way of full year elective choices. Summer school costs approximately $181 per semester with a 2 semester limit for courses.Neat Backpack!Neat bedroom!Complete all HW--the number one problem Freshmen experience is low grades due to HW!Be present! Attendance is the number one key to your success.Be on time! Your tardiness interrupts the learning of others, so please remember to be kind.If you are absent have a parent call Attendance at 480-224-2103, request missing work from teachers the next day you are present, and make up all missing work within the allotted time frame. For every consecutive day of an excused absence you have one day to make up all missing work.Go to sleep before 10 PM daily!Get involved!Do not post anything on social media that you cannot tell your parent about or that could hurt your chances of employment. For your generation social media is a permanent timestamp. Do not text or email anything you would not say in person. Always remember texts and emails have no tone of voice so be cautious how others may perceive what you are writing.
