Principal's Blog: 11/1/19 - 11/15/19

Greetings,

Please take a moment to read through the specific areas of importance below:

Quarter and Semester Grades

The majority of courses at Spectrum are on a semester schedule. However, there are a handful of courses that are on a quarter schedule. Those include Service Learning (all grade levels 6-12) and Life Skills (grade 6). These grades will be posted and ready to view in Infinite Campus by November 1^st. While final semester course grades will not be available until after the end of the semester on January 17, parents and students are encouraged to review student’s current progress on Infinite Campus.

Note: Spectrum’s Grading Policy can be viewed in the Family Handbook on pages 19-20. The Family Handbook can be found on the Spectrum website www.spectrumhighschool.org under the tabs: For Students > Campus Life > Student & Family Handbook.

Conferences Next Week!

Parent/Teacher/Student Conferences are quickly approaching on Thursday, November 7^th and Tuesday, November 12^th from 4:00–7:00 p.m. Conferences are walk-in, so no appointment is necessary. They will take place in the gymnasium at all 3 buildings. Our teachers always appreciate the opportunity to connect with students and their parents!

Tour Nights for Potential 2020-2021 New Students

It’s hard to believe, but Spectrum is already beginning preparations for the 2020-2021 school year! If you have children who wish to join their siblings at Spectrum (or know of others, such as friends, neighbors, relatives, co-workers, etc. interested in having their children attend) next school year (2020-2021), you and your child should plan to attend one of the upcoming Information and Tour Nights (see chart below). This is a great chance to check out the many offerings and opportunities available at Spectrum. Please register for a tour on the Spectrum website.

2020-2021 Enrollment Lottery (New Students)
