Principal Message

Hello Glacier Families

I hope this message finds you all continuing to be well. This week marks the beginning of quarter 2, your students received their class schedules last week during advisory along with the Zoom links and invitations for Google classrooms. Our daily schedule will be the same for quarter 2, that means the synchronous and asynchronous class times have not changed. You can find the daily schedule on the About page of our website.
Report cards for quarter one will be mailed out soon. Some changes have been made to our grading system. You will find letter grades and then P but no NC. If your student has a P for any class they will have the chance to improve their grade by submitting work to that teacher, even though that quarter is finished.

Our students have accomplished some wonderful things this quarter and you can find links to their work under the Student Life tab of our website. As this quarter progresses, continue to check our website for updates on student work.

Messages went out last week with details about the return of our ILC students and the building Covid-19 safety plan. The link to the safety plan is also posted on our webpage. Again, we don't have any information on a return date for all student groups.

Glacier Celebrates Veteran's Day

Honoring one of our Glacier Wolves

Veteran's Day is a time to pause and reflect on the men and women of the armed services in recognition of their sacrifice and service. Glacier's Cultural Celebrations committee worked with our Advisory committee to bring our students the opportunity to create a recorded interview of our very own Sinai Rincon, Bilingual Paraeducator and U.S. Army Veteran. Follow the link to watch the video interview.

Virtual Clubs Are Here!!
