Just a reminder to all parents that our big second semester schedule change begins Monday, January 29th. We will open our doors at 7:50. The warning bell rings at 8:15 and school starts at 8:20. On regular days, school will end at 3:15. On Early Release Wednesdays, school will end at 1:32.
We will be uploading student schedules on Friday and Saturday. Students will be picking up their new schedules on Monday morning before school starts. Students can also get a “sneak peek” at their new schedules using Home Access on Sunday the 28th.
A lot of time and effort was put into scheduling students and making sure that the electives students received were among the top choices on their forecasting sheets, if they turned in a forecasting sheet. After the 29th, if you would like to discuss a schedule change, you can contact myself or Mr. Chambers at the school to discuss a possible schedule change. Schedule changes for students will not be made for social reasons (i.e. to have the same class or the same lunch as their friend/s) No schedule changes will be made after February 9th.
Bus Routes and Bus Times have also changed. Please make sure you check the updated bus times to make sure you and your child know their bus number and stop times. Please have your child at the bus stop five minutes before their bus time. Note: Times for Bus 13 were changed as of 1-24-2018. If you’re child is on Bus 13, please follow the link to the revised schedule.
If you have any questions or concerns about the schedule change, please feel free to contact me at ojohnson@fernridge.k12.or.us or by phone at 541-935-8230.
Once again, thank you for your flexibility as we make this change. We are looking forward to our new classes including World Beat Music, Math Tutoring, Mythology, Creative Writing, Journalism, Warrior Women, Pop Culture, and additional periods of study hall. Thank you for your support as we continue to work towards meeting the needs of our students and our community.
