If you have students or parents who approach you with substance abuse concerns, please let me know. The Lifestyles class and the Tobacco Education classes are still offered – but virtually – for students and their parents. Students do not have to have been suspended to attend these classes.
Also Student Support Services also puts out a newsletter with some information that may be useful to you and your students:
When students return to in-person/face-to-face (F2F) instruction, please follow the following attendance reporting procedures in PowerSchool.
In-Person (F2F) Students:
Teachers must take attendance for in-person students daily prior to the end of the class period. Any student who is absent should be marked as an Unexcused Absence (2A) or with an Excused Absence code.
In-Person (F2F) Students should be marked as 1R- Present Off-Site on their remote days.
Quarantined In-Person (F2F) Students:
In-person (F2F) students who have been exposed to/or have a confirmed case of COVID-19 will be asked to remain home for 14 days. The school nurse will notify school staff of students who need to be quarantined based on public health data. Public health and/or school staff should notify parents if students need to be quarantined. Public health officials are the only designees who can quarantine staff or students.
If the quarantined student:
• can work remotely, student should be provided work to be completed at home and assigned a 1R- Present Off-Site.
• is too ill to work from home, the student should be assigned a 1D – Quarantine.
Unless the teacher is sick, instruction continues to be provided during quarantine. If the teacher is sick, alternate plans are made to provide instruction to students while the teacher is unavailable.
Remote or Virtual Students:
Students who are learning remotely should be assigned the 1R - Present Off-Site. Attendance for these students should be taken and updated within the 10-day reporting window.
(please also refer to the attachments from Mrs. Cline’s 3/25, 4:26PM e-mail)
GRADING
All grades need to be completed by 5pm on Friday, April 9th. Please no sooner😊
Grade changes can be submitted after printing of report cards 4/14. Within Mrs. Cline's e-mail, the grade change form that has to be filled out for all grade changes, is attachede. You will make the change in your gradebook but you have to give me the form to let me know what you have changed in order for me to store the grade in their historical marks.
You can enter INC’s for work that needs to be completed but just know that after the 10 day window the INC will need to be changed to a grade.(possibly delayed to the end of the semester)
Mrs. Cline will not be asking for copies of your spreadsheets. She will ask for them at the end of the semester.

The Application Packet includes:
o GTCC Application for Admission – Student signature required on page 2. Please do not include the social security number on the application for admission.
o Verification of Student Eligibility Form – Please make sure that you have all signatures required and that you have included the pathway.
o Year-End High School Transcript – courses must be listed by grade level, signed and dated by principal and include a cumulative unweighted GPA.
Please send a copy of your latest transcript with the admissions packet. If you attend a public high school, you may request this through cfnc.org. Please provide your High School ID # on the Verification Form. If your transcript is in a sealed envelope, you may open it and scan it.
o Copy of Home School State Registration (if applicable)
o Consent to Release Form – to be completed by the student.
o Media Release Form – to be completed by the parent.
3. Scan your application packet and email the documents as attachments using the attach
button to ccp@gtcc.edu. Do not copy and paste the documents into the body of the email.
Once you have submitted your application packet:
o Please be checking the email listed on your application. If something is missing, you will be notified. After the application is processed, the applicant will receive an email with Titan Account Activation Instructions.
o After activating your Titan account, please log into your GTCC Titan Email and check it frequently. You will receive registration instructions around March 1, 2021. Applicants who apply after March 15, will receive registration instructions after their application is processed.
o Once you have registered for classes, you will be sent an email with instructions for our mandatory online CCP Orientation.
Please keep in mind that the purpose of CCP is for eligible high school students to earn college credits towards a college degree, diploma, or certificate.
Dual credit for high school graduation requirements is a bonus, but should not be what drives course selection. Courses in the CCP transfer pathways should be selected based on the published bachelor degree plan for the major at the university the student intends to transfer to after high school.
Feel free to share Counselors information to the students.
