Dear Parent or Guardian:
As we approach the end of the school year, we would like to inform you that WLVHS and Family Partnership are providing one final push for credit recovery until the window closes on May 16.
The courses will close on this date, and your student will need to start all over. Students already enrolled in the Edgenuity program may attend a session before school starting at 7:15 AM or during lunch, which will begin promptly at 11:40 AM and end at 12:20 PM. If your child chooses this option and would like a tray for lunch, they will need to communicate this to the principal or assistant principal. The other option is that they stay from 3:30 PM to 5:30 PM.
We encourage all students in credit recovery to take advantage of these additional opportunities to catch up on their coursework and ensure a successful completion of their coursework and classes. Please have your child visit with the Principal or Assistant Principal to sign up for a time that they would like to work on Edgenuity so we can ensure we have personnel in place to assist them. Sign up will commence on Monday, April 22nd. It is crucial that your child make the most of this time to improve their grades and academic performance before the end of the school year.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding your child's participation in credit recovery on Edgenuity,please do not hesitate to reach out to us. Thank you for your continued support and involvement in your child’s education.
Best regards,
Carla Pacheco, Principal Rita Sanchez, Vice Principal
