Why is getting a high school diploma important?

Start with a conversation about GRADES:

• Start by having students check their grades on Synergy Student Vue.
• What's the importance of GPA?
• Explain the difference between Quarter vs. Semester Grades
• Show students a sample Transcript.

Let's organize our Interactive Notebooks together

-Glue in loose pages
-Get any missing work (check Synergy!)

Continuing work from last class if not finished:

-Complete 'Calculating my GPA' worksheet and glue in Interactive Notebook

How to get help when I need it:

Use the following resources to help students learn how to be proactive about problems and how to advocate for themselves in both school and personal matters.

• Communicating with Teachers
• Where to Go for Help (this graphic organizer is like the Scavenger Hunt chart, but is more like a quick reference sheet for students to personalize)
