Quarter 2/Semester 1 End Date. Quarter 2 ends on Friday, January 24. This marks not just the close of the quarter, but for any half-credit classes, it marks the end of the course itself. On Monday, January 27, we will begin Quarter 3/Semester 2, and for many students, that will mean schedule changes as new classes begin.
Ski Club. The next ski and snowboard trip will be another night trip to Wachusett on January 31. Pick up registration materials in room 211. The trip will fill up, so register soon to reserve a spot. Any questions contact Mr. Jannke [email protected]. There will be a third trip on March 7, details to come at a later date.
Culture Night. Ledyard, Fitch, and New London More than Words will host a Culture Night on Thursday, January 30th, from 6-8 in the Ledyard High School cafeteria! We encourage family and friends to come to this potluck-style event, where you can bring a dish from your culture and share it with others. You can also watch different cultural performances! Performances can range from dances, sharing music, clothing, storytelling, drum circles, anything! We can’t wait to see everyone there! Sign up to bring food and for performances here.
Softball Strength and Conditioning. Pre-season strength and conditioning for students interested in playing softball this spring will begin on Tuesday January 28. The sessions will be held every Tuesday and Thursday from 2:30pm-3:30pm in the fitness center. For further information, please see Athletic Director Jim Buonocore or contact softball coach Marissa Morris at [email protected]
Snow Day Schedule Reminders. While there is no snow in the current forecast, it is worth reminding everyone that if or when we have a cancellation for snow, we skip right over that day in the A/B rotation. For example, if Tuesday was an A Day, and then we missed the Wednesday B Day for snow, we would return on the Thursday for the regularly scheduled A Day.
Capstone Projects. Any seniors who have not yet completed the four elements of their Capstone Projects will receive a letter grade of F for Quarter 2. If this is you, please refer to PowerSchool for comments about what is missing or deficient, and then come to the Main Office to schedule an appointment to meet with Mrs. Fagan to discuss next steps.
