Announcements:

Prom

  • Prom has tentatively been rescheduled for July 11th.  We are going to do our very best to have it on this date.  Mr. Rademacher has no issue with the boys foregoing the tux and coming in dress clothes, similar to Homecoming.  More information to come.

DACC Testing Alternative (Mendy)

  • New Placement Test Information - DACC has just made the decision to use GPA as an alternative for the ACCUPLACER test for placement into Dual Enrollment U.S. History, Dual Enrollment Rhetoric I and II, Dual Enrollment Western Civ I and II, College Express Criminal Justice and College Express Early Childhood Education.

    • Rules for English Placement based off their high school transcript:

      • High School cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher out of 4.0 places a student into ENGL 121 

      • High School cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher out of 4.0 places a student into ENGL 101 (and Dual Enrollment U.S. History, Western Civ. And Rhetoric) IF the student has had at least an A or a B in a sophomore or junior level English class.

    • Students taking Dual Enrollment Calculus will still need to take the ALEKS math test and should have received an email from DACC with instructions.

    • Mrs. Stephens has sent an email out to students who did not place into their requested courses with their GPA. They will still need to take the ACCUPLACER test.
