Editor's Note: These changes only apply to 9th - 11th grade, not the middle school or elementary! Liam HalawithMaroon Echoes News On Wednesday, May 6th, the Mount Pleasant Community High School Principal Todd Liechty sent a letter to the parents of all 9th to 11th grade students concerning recent changes in their grading policy. With direction from the Iowa Department of Education, the high school has announced that grade books will close for the 2019-2020 school year.
School administration has detected that all grades will be posted by June 2, 2020. All grades will be calculated based on work that was turned in or due before March 13th, 2020. All grades should be updated by May 10th with all grades from before the shutdown now legally allowed to be in the grade books. Students will have three choices for their final grades:
The district encourages students to continue their voluntary exploration work. The voluntary work covers content that you might use in the future. So if you are taking a class that is essential or preparatory for your future career they suggest you participate! If you are in Self-Paced Algebra II you must be in a tandem traditional class to pass out this semester; you must finish the second semester before moving on. If you are in Chemistry, they suggest finishing the course as it is helpful when you take your ACT’s. On May 26th and 27th, the school will be open (From 8 AM - 4 PM) so that students can return their materials. All textbooks, rented calculators, computers, and library books need to be returned! There will be tables in the high school commons for you to return your materials! In regards to registration for next year, course options will be available online for next year shortly. The school will be publishing the new course catalog quickly so that you can see what you want to take next year! Course selection will be open on the Infinite Campus shortly! *Detailed information can be found in a letter posted on the high school’s website!
