Tips for graduating on time

• Schedule a teacher or counselor conference
  • Schedule a face-to-face conference with the teacher prior to mid-quarter.
  • Ask teachers about assignment expectations and discuss re-testing, test correction and late assignment policies. 
  • If you need to meet with multiple teachers, ask the school counselor to arrange a conference for you.

• Avoid excessive absences (10+) in any class
  • Any student with more than 10 absences in a class must attend an after-school program for absence recovery or receive an "F" in the course. It is very important to complete recovery in a timely manner.
  • If the course is required for graduation, the student will have to re-take the failed course.
  • Check with your student’s counselor about this policy.

• Ask about missing credits
  
  • Know the graduation requirements (linked on this page). Contact your student's counselor if you have questions or concerns about credits.
  • Enroll in credit recovery or other course offerings to catch up and graduate on time if needed.
  • Check Power School regularly to see if there are any missing assignments or tests.
    • PowerSchool log in.
  • Request a conference to find out if your student can turn in assignments or re-take any missed or failed tests.
  • If your student has a 504 plan, make sure the teacher and student are following the accommodations and modifications in the plan.
