Principal Letter – April 27, 2020

April 27, 2020/in High Schools News /by rthornburg

April 27, 2020
Dear Pendleton High School Parents,

We will be giving Pass/Incomplete final grades on June 4 when the semester ends.
 If students were not passing on March 12, they need to continue to work in order to earn a full credit.
 If students were passing as of March 12, they need to keep working until June 4 or until they complete the course in Acellus to earn full credit.
 We want students to stay engaged in meaningful learning and cover as much content as possible through the end of the semester.
 If your student has barriers to participating in distance learning, contact the administration immediately.

These are some strategies for staying aware of your students’ progress:
 Look at their grades in Home Access.
 For Math, Science, Social Studies, and Health 1 look at their Acellus account (we emailed user names and passwords on April 8).
 Email teachers or counselors.
 See our PHS website for teacher contact information and information about classes.
 Call the administration at 541-966-3804 for usernames and passwords and any other questions.

Information to follow about Senior Drive Through Check-Out on May 4. Grades 9-11 drive through locker pick-up on May 5.

Take care of yourself and your family. Do not hesitate to call us if you have questions or need support.

Sincerely,
Melissa Sandven, Principal
541-966-3806
