Hello NCA Bears & Welcome Back! I hope you all had a wonderful break and took time to relax and enjoy. For those that completed work, I hope it was a productive time for you. Though it's not ideal, working over Fall Break is one of the best ways to get caught up. Believe it or not, the end of the semester is only three weeks away! How did that happen?! This year has certainly flown by. If you find that you are struggling to get caught up or to improve your grade, NOW is the time to reach out to your teacher(s) to create a plan. While dropping and skipping assignments is no longer permitted, you can work out a plan to bring your grade up to a passing grade so you can earn credit. Stay focused and work hard! The end of the semester is ALMOST here! Temporary Zeros - Temporary zeros for all remaining assignments for the semester will be added in on Friday, December 2nd. This does not mean your assignments are considered overdue. You will still have access to these lessons and will still be able to submit these assignments until December 16th at 8:59pm. Adding in temporary zeros will give you an idea of what your grade would be should you not complete the remainder of the assignments. The goal is always to complete everything but, should you not be able to meet that goal, the next goal would be to get your grade up to passing so you can earn the credit for the course. School Climate/Social Emotional Survey- If you haven’t already done so, please take a minute to read through the webmail from Ms. Arkerson regarding the School Climate/Social Emotional Survey. This webmail was sent on November 4th. The School Climate/Social Emotional Survey was added to all students To Do List and can only be accessed by students. The window to complete this survey closes Friday, December 2, 2022.Thank you to those who have already completed this task. Attendance- Attendance is a vital component of our school and must be consistently recorded. Attendance runs from Sunday-Saturday and will be collected through the form below each week. This will be recorded based on the attendance verification form AND lesson completion and will be confirmed by our Attendance Coordinator.

Enjoy your week! Hello NCA Bears! Here we are again, at the start of a new week. A week filled with possibilities and choices. You have the ability to create the type of week you want. I know that sometimes it’s tempting to choose the easiest option, however, the easiest option does not help you achieve your goals. Achieving your goals will require you to feel challenged and sometimes uncomfortable. That’s ok though! That means you are learning and growing along the way. Just continue to believe that you can do it, that you can push through that uncomfortable feeling. Believe that you can do hard things because once you believe in yourself, no one can stop you. Now get out there and make this week even better than the last. I believe in you! Attendance- Attendance is a vital component of our school and must be consistently recorded.
