Fort Students and Parents:
The final day of Term 1 is Friday, January 28th. For any student currently on quarantine and/or completing critical assignments to earn course credit, please communicate with your teachers about work your trying to complete. We are committed to supporting students through these difficult times, but students are responsible for the work and communicating with teachers.
Edgenuity, our online curriculum where students are retaking classes, making up NX courses, or seniors with Health class or electives, will have until 2pm on Monday, January 31st to continue working. The system will close at 2pm on 1/31.
Positive covid cases continue to drop with approximately 73 students still on quarantine. Thank you for continuing to report a positive case to Mr. Holke, AP of Security I.A. A new policy reducing the mandated quarantine period will go into effect next week.
Please note the REVISED BELL SCHEDULE for Term 2 that takes effect Wednesday, February 2, 2022. The adjustment is a reduction of the passing period from 6 minutes to 5 minutes and an additional minute of instruction each period.
