Team -
Thank you for being patient this past week as GCS maintenance continues to address the heating issues around parts of our building. I spoke to the Chief Operations Officer, Scott McCully Saturday morning and he is aware of SWHS and we are on his radar. If you are still having heat issues (too cold or too hot), please inform Dr. Monell even if you think I am aware.
A big thank you to everyone who came out Saturday to pitch in with EOC Bootcamps and NCFE tutorials. This opportunity always proves to be beneficial to the students when it comes to the results of the exams.
Only 6 FULL instructional days left and two of these include non state exams with blocks 1/3 non state exams on Friday January 11th followed by blocks 2/4 exams on Tuesday. This was recently changed due to the day off on January 4th. Please make sure you are communicating this to your parents and students. These two days are regular school days. Exempting the exams on these two days do not excuse any student from school on these days, however, students do not have to attend school during the five state exam days in which their class would have been scheduled. Please work with your neighbors and/or teammates if you are needing any students to be supervised while providing your exams during the Friday/Tuesday non state exam blocks. This is a perfect opportunity for students to be studying for other exams, or even making up any work if necessary. The state exam schedule, Wednesday, January 17th to Monday, January 22nd will test blocks 1-4 for all state exams, followed by make up exam day on the 23rd. Wednesday, January 24th will be the first day of the 2nd semester. The state exam days will end at 1:05 for dismissal. If you have ANY students staying after with you and need transportation, please make sure Mr. Miller knows so he can communicate with transportation. Students should be in dress code for all exams and will NOT be allowed to take their exam if out of dress code.
Any students who have GTCC classes on the day of state exams can be released ONLY after the exam is finished in the room. If he/she finishes, they must wait until the whole class is complete.
As a reminder, please make sure you are alerting the student's grade level counselor and administrator if you are nervous about a student failing your class. Additionally, please remind students of their make up time responsibilities and any work that needs to be made up.

Former SWHS students will share there very recent experiences and what they wished they would have done differently as well as take any questions. Wonderful opportunity!
As we finish these past few days exams, let's be reminded to teach bell to bell, not allow students to use the restroom in the beginning or end of instruction, remind students to use the cafeteria bathroom during lunch, do not dismiss students from any class early, do not use class time for fundraising collections, etc.
