Bulldog Monthly Newsletter (in plain text)
FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Bulldogs,
I hope that each of you enjoyed your Thanksgiving break with the ones that you
love the most. Although it is hard to believe, our first semester of the 2024-2025
school year is coming to an end. We have had a great deal of success to
celebrate including a record breaking number of students on honor roll and an
overall improvement rating on our South Carolina school report card. We are
very proud of our students and staff, and we anticipate that our successes will
only grow from here.
In this monthly newsletter, we will discuss a few important items to keep in mind
as we close out semester one and head into semester two. All students will have
final exams for their classes and students enrolled in English 2, Algebra
1/Intermediate Algebra, U.S. History, and Biology will have South Carolina End of
Course tests. The schedule for these assessments can be found below. Final
exams and EOCs account for a significant portion of class grades. It is
imperative that students prepare for their test by coming to school regularly,
studying content, getting adequate rest, and charging their devices for test day.
Seat time is a requirement in South Carolina. If a student is absent more than 10
times in any given class, he/she cannot get credit for that class (even if they
academically pass). Parents should look at student attendance and ensure that
students are meeting seat time requirements. NHS holds free sessions for
makeup time each Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday in the cafeteria. We do not
want any students to fail a class due to attendance issues. If you would like to
check your student's attendance, please call our main office.
I sincerely hope that all our families have a wonderful holiday season!
Sarah Harvey, Principal
