closing up FOr This year...

As we approach the end of the year some things to think about before the new year comes along:
a. Did your student AF a course, apply for an appeal and was granted it?  If so, please make sure their AF grade has been updated on their transcript.  You can contact guidance for information.   
b. Did your student qualify for Credit Recovery or Competency Recovery?  Please make sure your student discusses what needs to happen with their classroom teacher. There are deadlines that need to be met and summer work may be required.  If they have successfully completed the needed work, please make sure their grade has been updated to the appropriate letter/numerical grade.  You can contact guidance for information.
