Dear RPHS Parents and Families,
I hope you enjoyed the holiday season with family and friends and are looking forward to the start of the new year. I ask parents to remind their children to stay focused on learning as the end of the second marking quarter is quickly approaching. The semester ends on January 20, 2023. You may find your son/daughter’s report card on the PARENT PORTAL on Friday 1/27/23. This is an opportune time to set goals for ourselves and establish positive routines to achieve these goals.
Throughout this month, our guidance staff will visit with students in their English classes to begin the 2023-2024 scheduling process. With the expansion to a nine period day next school year, there will be expanded course options for all of our students. It is important to review the 2023-2024 RPHS Course Guide with your student to view the many course options potentially offered at the high school. During this upcoming scheduling process, parents of our juniors will receive an email invitation regarding scheduling a junior conference with their child’s guidance counselor. This is an excellent time not only to discuss graduation requirements but to ask questions about the college application process as well.
During the week of January 24th through January 27th, select students will take the NYS Regents Exams. If you have questions regarding the January administration of the Regents Exams or the college application process, please contact your child’s guidance counselor.
Popular research shows regular attendance is a vital part of school success. It is important for parents and students to pay attention to the attendance notices that you may receive in the mail regarding absences. These letters state specific thresholds that indicate absences are accumulating and may lead to students exceeding the maximum allowable days. This would result in a class audit. Students will be denied credit in a course if they are in audit. Details of our attendance policy can be found in our 2022-2023 Attendance Letter sent out at the start of the school year. Should your child be in audit, it is important for parents to contact their child’s guidance counselor and pursue a potential appeal. Official documentation should be provided to justify student absences.
In closing, this will be my final letter, as I will be starting a new administrative position in my home district. It has been an honor and a privilege serving as the principal of Rocky Point High School. I cannot thank you enough for putting your trust and faith in my administrative team to prevail through the challenges presented over the past few years. This is a special school community and it will always hold a place in my heart.
Sincerely yours,
Jonathan Hart
High School Principal
