Fort Students and Families, February 23, 2021
Welcome Back!!!! Hope your break was filled with rest and fun. Diving back in yesterday reminded me how much I love my work but also how much we need our break time more than ever.
Great news that the contractors working to restore our building after the flood are wrapping up their work. Many parts of our building will be shiny and new. High School classes and activities continue fully remote throughout NYC DOE schools, but having access to the building again is exciting.
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.
PARENT/GUARDIAN CHOICE OF GRADING SCALE for 2020 TERM 1
Students who earned an NX in Term 1 will learn about opportunities to make up the work next week. The Term 2 program on Pupilpath will reflect courses to be made up no later than March 1st, and students will receive more information via email about next steps.
Please see Term 2 Tutoring Schedule attached that includes SAT Prep opportunities in addition to support across content areas.
