Greetings from the Principal

Dear Blazer Nation,

     This week we head into our second week of End of Course exams. We will have a delayed start.  Classes will begin at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, April 13^th, and Thursday, April 15^th. Each of our Trailblazers that need to test these next several weeks should have received an email containing the dates they need to report to campus to test. Please remember that while our students need to test as a graduation requirement, we also need to ensure everyone is safe. Therefore, please review and accurately complete Eswipe with your child the morning he/she needs to report to school as it guides the clearance to attend school, or any necessary next steps if your child should remain at home. We appreciate your support and understanding as we continue to move forward together.

Sincerely,

Patricia Ferdinand-Cuevas

Proud Principal of Americas HS
