High School Play - THIS WEEKEND 3/14-3/16

date 03/13/2025 author Kayleen Scheck category Fun Activities comment Leave a comment

During homeroom on Thursday 3/13 all students will be able to preview the High School Play: LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!

Come check it out this weekend in the high school gym: 
Friday 3/14 @ 7pm
Saturday 3/15 @ 7pm
Sunday 3/16 @ 2pm

Tickets: $7 – Adult & $5 – Student/Senior Citizen
Available at the door or $1 discount if purchased at the LAHS office before production
 
On the final day of classes at Bovine High School, a renegade student takes over the morning announcements and proposes that everyone do something bold. Or unexpected. Or brave. Or stupid. You may not have another chance, so now's the time to stop being a wallflower and kiss the girl (or guy!). To let your enemies know that you have always hated their guts. Or to do something as simple as climbing the rope in the gym without throwing up. Through a series of interconnected scenes, misconceptions, grudges, and secret crushes come out into the open in hilarious and surprisingly touching ways—a comedy with a lot of heart, and no regrets.

 JMC Grade Updates 

date 03/13/2025 author Kayleen Scheck category Academics comment Leave a comment

I want to first start with I AM PROUD of students for advocating for their grades & now seeing the value of them.  However, the missing/late work list is getting long and the expectation to have it graded the second they turn it in is wearing on me. 

In my syllabus next year and until the end of the year, students were told I will publish grades on Mondays for grade checks and if I put in an assignment for the WHOLE class throughout the week. I will NOT publish for a single missing grade because then notification emails get out of hand for parents that have those enabled. 

I also need to keep up on the assignments that ARE turned in on time, so it may take up to 14 days for me to circle back and grade what was missing, this is why it's important for your child turn assignments in on time to keep a planner or place where they can record what they've completed and still need to complete. We did have this conversation as a whole, I just wanted you to be aware!

date 03/13/2025 author Kayleen Scheck category Fun Activities comment Leave a comment

We have a FREE CHOICE Book report due near the end of the Quarter 3 (Wed. 3/26). A student must fill out the sheet and a parent/guardian has to SIGN it. Thank you to those who have already turned it in. If your child needs another copy, I have extras available in class.

BIOGRAPHY - One of the book reports they've been working on is a Biography on a famous person, I don't have the details yet, but that last week of March we will be doing a mini presentation about our people.  Your child is encouraged to have a prop or two related to their person. Ask who your child is researching and start looking for props, if there is anything you'd need help finding/getting, let me know!
