Superintendent
Mrs. Bergman and Mrs. Green have met with Senior class officers and student council concerning graduation. Students want to walk across the stage but understand health concerns. Clarinda Foundation has senior yard signs and students are planning a date to stand by them while cars drive past. If the graduation date of May 17 is postponed, possible future dates are June 21 or July 19 depending on when regulations are lifted. Mr. Porter and Junior officers have chosen June 20 or July 18 for Prom to coordinate with graduation. The best option for Senior awards and scholarships presentation is a virtual show; pictures will still be displayed in Clarinda Foundation window. After talking with staff and families, final grades for third quarter will stand. Students unhappy with third quarter grades are able to redo work; it cannot be graded but it can be evidence of continued learning and progress. Fortunately, this fourth quarter is a fraction of students’ educational career and students in the world are also on pause. Negotiations with CEA will begin Friday.
