Southeast Families-
This is Eric Yarbrough, principal at Southeast Alamance High School.
Our attendance rate for the last week was 90.6%. Our freshman class led the way with a 92.4% attendance rate. Your child must be at school and on time to be successful in their classes. We have made a slight adjustment to our tardy policy for the 4th quarter of the year. Click here to view the updated tardy policy. Please help us by ensuring that your child is at school on time everyday.
We are currently 5 weeks away from the start of exams. Just a reminder that students can be exempt from teacher made exams if they meet the requirements in our Exam Exemption Policy. Below is the spring exam schedule. If students have any questions about the exam schedule or need to reschedule an exam they will need to speak with their teacher.
We will continue to offer Saturday School on select Saturdays from 9:00 until 12:00. Students can use this time for extra tutoring to ensure that they are progressing in their classes. You can sign your child up for Saturday School by clicking on the link below.
We will be running an evening academy on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 4:15 to 6:30. This is a great opportunity for your child to get some extra help if they need it. Please contact Bo Williamson at brandon_williamson@abss.k12.nc.us to sign your child up for our Evening Academy.
Senior parents…If you still need to order your cap and gown online at the link below. Please order yours as soon as possible as the price will continue to increase.
We will hold our 2024 Junior/Senior Prom this Saturday, May 4th, at the Chairman's Retreat in Burlington. Students that have purchased tickets online can pick up their tickets before school and at lunch on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Please see Mrs. Holloway if you have any questions.
The district approved the calendar for the 24-25 school year at their BOE meeting earlier this week. The approved calendar is linked below.
In order to stay up to date about your child’s grades and attendance, it is very important that you download the Powerschool Parent Portal App. HERE is all the information you need to download the app and set up its features. Finally, if you want to be a parent observer in your child’s Canvas courses then click here for instructions to set that up. If you have any questions please reach out to us.
Breakfast and lunch are not free for all students. If you would like your child to eat meals at school, you will either need to put money on their online account or you will need to secure a free/reduced lunch status by filling out the application linked below. Our school currently has a negative balance of $3000. At the end of the year, our school will have to pay the negative balance. Paying this money takes away important resources from other things that we may need at the school. Please help us to pay down our negative balance by putting money in your child’s account or by applying for free or reduced meals. The free or reduced application is available in the main office or you can fill out the online application at https://www.lunchapplication.com/.
You can add money to their lunch account online, by clicking the link below.
