Latin Honors for Graduation
Board policy 3080 was adopted on January 14, 2020. This policy allows our school to recognize a larger number of students who have demonstrated high academic achievement. Beginning in 2023-24, high school principals shall designate the following senior honors:

1. Students with a 3.75 – 3.99 weighted grade point average shall receive the distinction of cum laude

2. Students with a 4.0 – 4.249 weighted grade point average shall receive the distinction of magna cum laude

3. Students with a 4.25 or higher weighted grade point average shall receive the distinction of summa cum laude

Each student who achieves this recognition will receive a medal indicating the honor level and each medal will be accompanied by a white ribbon.

The student earning the highest cumulative weighted grade point average in the graduating class each year shall be named as Valedictorian. This determination shall be made during the senior year at the end of the final grading period for the year.

The student earning the second highest cumulative weighted grade point average in the graduating class each year shall be named as Salutatorian. The determination shall be made during the senior year at the end of the final grading period for the year.

If you have any questions as always, please contact Mrs. Simpson.

Senior Chromebook & Charger Return
Seniors, Please plan to return your ABSS chromebook and charger per the guidelines below:

Please remember, all school related items (books, devices, etc.) must be returned and any outstanding fine/fees paid before you can pick up graduation tickets.

Who?
Seniors with no exams may begin turning in chromebooks and chargers on Thursday, May 30th any time between 8:30am and 3:45pm. They can also turn in their devices any school day after that through Wednesday, June 5th.

Where?
Where do I turn in my chromebook and charger? On and after May 30th, return your chromebook and charger to the EAHS library.

What?
What do I do in the library? Have your chromebook open and turned on, and your charger cords neatly wrapped, but in such a way that we can still see the barcode. Provide the person there with your student ID number. Show them that your screen is not broken and that no keys are missing. Hand both the chromebook and charger to the person and they will scan them into the system. Walk away and have a great summer!

Devices Lost or Broken?
What if my charger is missing, my chromebook is missing keys, and/or my screen is broken?

You will be billed at some point for any damaged or missing devices. You will not be expected to pay at the time of turn in. However, unpaid fees will prevent you from getting your graduation tickets.

The costs are as follows:
Entire chromebook lost/stolen: $250
Charger lost/stolen: $23
Screen broken: $52
Keyboard missing keys: $59 - for G6 models only.

The Line is Too Long!
Please be patient as we work through the turn in process. We’ve done our best to make it simple, easy, and fast, but there may be some crowded moments. If it's busy, you can choose to come on another day 8:30am to 3:45pm through Wednesday, June 5th.
