Gran Domingo. Familia GHS. Espero que todos hayan disfrutado del fin de semana. Por favor vea los articulos listados abajo.
Política de Exención de Exámenes Hechos por Maestros
Como recordatorio, por favor no le digan a los estudiantes que no vengan a la escuela en estos días. Estos días todavía se consideran días de instrucción. Los estudiantes de secundaria pueden ser exentos de un examen final que no es requerido por el estado si el estudiante cumple con los criterios a continuación.
Una calificación de «A» y no más de cinco (5) ausencias durante el semestre
Una calificación de «B» y no más de cuatro (4) ausencias durante el semestre
Una calificación de «C» y no más de tres (3) ausencias durante el semestre
Todas las ausencias (legales o ilegales) cuentan para el límite de exención de examen, excepto las excursiones patrocinadas por la escuela, las actividades aprobadas por la escuela, las fiestas religiosas y las exenciones por dificultades médicas aprobadas por el distrito. Todos los alumnos tendrán la oportunidad de presentarse al examen, incluso si reúnen los requisitos para la exención de examen. Si un alumno decide presentarse al examen, la nota del examen contará como el 20% de su nota final del curso.
Los estudiantes exentos que decidan no presentarse al examen determinarán su nota final del curso haciendo la media de sus dos notas trimestrales por igual. Para poder adherirnos a esta política del distrito, todas las tareas que deban ser calificadas, tienen que ser entregadas antes del 24 de mayo. Los maestros deben usar la calificación F1. La fecha límite de asistencia será el 28 de mayo. Las ausencias después del 28 de mayo no afectarán los criterios para la exención de TME.

✨38 Days, 38 Schools - Graham High School
For students charting their course after high school, Graham High School offers a comprehensive array of programs to prepare them for college, entrepreneurship, or direct workforce entry. Whether bound for further academics or eager to launch a career, the staff at Graham equips students with the skills and knowledge to find success.
The Pre-Collegiate Academy is a standout offering, providing an accelerated academic track for those eager to get a head start on their college journey. Not all paths lead to a four-year college or university, though! That's why we've invested in robust #ABSSCTE programs like Public Safety and Welding. These hands-on programs equip students with valuable skills and industry certifications, opening doors to rewarding careers straight out of high school.
No matter which route students choose, Graham High School creates an inclusive environment where every student feels at home. Their supportive community nurtures personal growth, maturity, and the confidence to tackle post-secondary goals head-on. We're committed to empowering the next generation of leaders, innovators, and skilled professionals – all while instilling that Red Devil pride.
