Greetings Pioneers,
Our Active Minds Club will be hosting “Stress Less Week” with daily activities and themes to help students de-stress and learn healthy coping skills before final exams. See below for daily activities and dress themes! As an additional resource, please check out the December Edition of our Social Work Newsletter.
As a reminder all students are expected to take their final exams and be in attendance for their finals. If they are absent, they should coordinate with the teacher to make it up on one of the three final exam days. Finals cannot be given on a different day for any reason. Students may not leave early during finals time. Semester 1 Final Exam Schedule
