APHG 2nd Trimester WELCOME to 334
Housekeeping • Mandatory 3rd trimester changes: “As we enter third trimester, I want to ensure that two procedures are in place in all classrooms. The first is that students should not have ear-buds or headphones on during class unless for instructional purposes. The second is that students do not line-up at the door prior to class ending. • The most significant variable in student growth in learning is your teaching. I want to make sure students are unmitigated in their ability to learn from you.” • All students are required to be in compliance with the school dress code. Students should do a dress code check before beginning class. - Dr. Meyer
