Fort Students and Families, March 6, 2021
March blew in with the opportunity to reoccupy our building and begin reorganization of spaces damaged in the flood. While high schools remain fully remote, we anticipate the return to in-person learning in SY202-21 and will be ready for all blended staff and students to return.
A reminder that any Blended student without consent for covid testing was moved to Remote learning at the end of February. We delayed making this change to offer families time to complete the consent form, but there will be no return to blended for the remainder of SY2020-21. We now have a fixed number of blended students and will assess our ability to add an additional in-person day when high schools reopen for students.
Term 1 Grade Change Request:
Families have the option to request that a passing numeric grade from Term 1 can be converted to CR (credit). The grade of CR does not impact GPA. Families can request some or all passing grades be changed to CR by completing the form here no later than April 30, 2021. This does not apply to grades of NX.
