SHS Freshman Academy

Well, the year is off to a great start! Congratulations to this year’s freshman class–they are getting to class on time, behaving in class, and learning a lot!! Having lockers and team classes near each other seems to be paying off!! (Thanks again for everyone’s patience at the Freshman Orientation in August!) Intouch passwords should be mailed home soon so parents can access student grades/attendance/discipline online. If there are questions before then, please contact teachers directly via email.

Student work is ongoing and is assessed continuously. If a student begins to fall behind, we have a great tutoring plan in place to help out asap! Students are encouraged to attend tutoring–they can go to any Academy teacher, not just their team teacher. Please click on the tutoring schedule below to see when tutoring is available. We have it for all core subjects almost every day in the morning before school AND in the afternoon.
