Sunday Call Blast 03/24/2024

From Principal Maldonado:

Greetings Duval MYcroSchool families! 

Teachers are the first point of contact for issues and concerns.  Make sure your student knows who his or her advisory teacher is.  This person is found on their schedule.  Teacher emails are listed on www.duvalmycroschool.org. The advisory teacher will support them through their educational journey in addition to the other staff at Duval MYcroSchool. 

Please keep in mind that each student has a specific shift.  AM students go from 7:30am-12:34pm, and PM students attend at 10:02am-3:11pm.  Please make note of early dismissal days as we do follow the district calendar, but due to testing and other academic functions, we have more early dismissal days.  BOTH SHIFTS attend from 7:30am-12:34pm on early dismissal days.  Please see our school calendar posted on our website and social media.  Do not bring your scholar to any other shift other than the one on their schedule.  Students will not be allowed in if they are more than half an hour tardy for school.  This policy is in our student handbook on our website and in the Google Orientation classroom.

If your student has not been reporting to school, he or she needs to call us and report immediately to Ms. Green so they can be counseled to a more appropriate setting that will work for them.  Students that are seniors and not in position to graduate should not stay on our roster.  The school is currently reaching out to find viable options so these students can graduate as soon as possible.

Senior warning letters have gone home to those students in danger of not graduating.  Please make sure to check your mail.  If you have any questions, please contact lyvonia.green@duvalmycroschool.org. For general information, there is only one more chance to earn a concordant score before the cut off date of April 15, 2024 to walk in the graduation ceremony and that was the SAT on March 9, 2024.  Those scores will possibly be back before April 15.  If you feel like your student is in danger of not graduating this year, please make an appointment to see Ms. Green.

March 25, 2024 we return to school from Spring Break.  Students should aim to finish a maximum of 8 credits to be on track at the end of the school year.  Seniors need to have all credits completed by April 15, 2024.

March 28, 2024 is a MYcroSchool Early Dismissal Day and all Senior fees are due this day.

March 29, 2024 is No School in observance of Good Friday.

Seniors, please remember to put your down payment on your senior package with Mr. Johnson ASAP!  We are nearing the deadline. Thank you to those families that got their payment in on time.  Please remember to view the Band app and Google classroom for all senior information and announcements.

Please observe reporting threats of violence on the link to FortifyFLorida on our website.  The school needs your support for monitoring your student’s social media and internet time.  If your student brings drama and violence to school, there will be consequences.  Parents, please discuss our code of conduct found on our website with your student and the importance of limiting time on mobile devices, as well as creating a negative digital record for oneself.  Students need to understand that making threats over the internet can cause police intervention these days and that there are more consequences to social media threats of violence than just what the school can divvy out.

Finally, please make sure you have provided an email so you may receive progress reports in your inbox on Sunday evenings.  If you don’t see a progress report, let us know. Scholarship warnings will go out when we return from Winter break. Please make sure to clear your junk mail if you do not see weekly communications from us.  Edmentum will send you a progress report each Sunday at 6pm. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
