School Announcements
Wylie ISD Band Solo Contest

This past Friday our band students competed in our Wylie ISD solo competition.  We are so incredibly proud of all of the students.  This is a difficult, self-directed project that the students voluntarily work up outside of class time.  Out of the 43 students who elected to attend, 85% received the high score of a division I rating.  



Clinic Medications

As the school year comes to an end, I need to remind you that your student has medication in the clinic.  All medication must be picked up by June 1, 2012.  Any medication left here at school after 3:30pm on June 1 will be destroyed.  Please come by the clinic to pick it up any time Monday through Friday from 8am to 4pm.  Thanks so much for your help and if you have any questions or need to make other arrangements please call or email me.



Semester Exams
 Earlier this year, our staff decided to allow students to have the option of counting their STAAR assessments as their semester exam grades. This procedure was introduced to begin to align the junior high STAAR assessments with our high school End of Course examine procedures which count as a portion of a student’s final grade. The Commissioner of Education, however, revoked this mandate earlier this spring for the 2011-12 school year. With the uncertainty of when our campus will receive our scores as well as the removal of the EOC grading mandate, our junior high schools have decided to exempt all semester exams for the spring semester. Therefore, a student’s semester average will now consist of the average of the 4th, 5th, and 6th six weeks grading periods. Please feel free to contact our office to answer any questions.

 

9th Grade Summer Advancement Opportunities

Wylie ISD students who are entering grades 9-12 for the 2012-2013 school year are eligible to enroll in the district’s High School Summer School program beginning May 7 through June 1.  The program is for students interested in recovering or accelerating course credit hours.  Only one credit may be earned for acceleration and incoming freshman may only register for electives.  Two sessions are being offered and all classes will be at Wylie High School located at 2550 W FM 544, Wylie.  Please contact Janet Harris in student services for specific course offerings.

Upcoming Freshman Summer Reading
 In order to receive credit for English I Pre-AP, the students must complete a summer reading assignment. The students will not be required to annotate this selection throughout the summer. However, it is recommended that students take notes regarding aspects of the book that they may find important or confusing. 

Summer reading must be completed by the first day of school.
