*indicates a change from our regular schedule
Students not taking the PSAT/NMSQT can stay home to work virtually. If your student cannot stay home that day, they may come to school to complete their virtual learning in supervised areas. Buses will run as normal and a "grab and go" lunch will be available to students who come to school for either testing or virtual learning.
If your student is testing (registered 9 th & 11 th graders and ALL 10 th graders), please keep reading! (10th graders are automatically registered by the county, 9th and 11th registration has closed)

- Students with last names A-L should be picked up in the front of the building in the normal car rider lanes.

- Students may then participate in Virtual Learning at home. If your student does not have transportation home or they cannot stay home to work, they may stay at school for Lunch and Virtual Learning for the remainder of the day. They will be assigned a central location to complete their work virtually.
