Hi OHS Students and Families,
I am excited to share that the Oconomowoc High School Baseball
team is playing in the sectional semifinal on Tuesday, June 4, beginning around
1:00 p.m. at Roosevelt Field in Oconomowoc! If the team wins, we will play in
the sectional final on the same afternoon at about 4:00 p.m. This is incredibly
exciting for our team, school, and community!
We understand that many students may want to attend the game and
cheer on their friends and classmates. However, because the game is occurring
during the school day and off school property, we do need to be consistent with
our attendance guidelines. Parents and students should take note of the
following:
- Parents/guardians
may excuse student(s) from school to watch the game through our normal
attendance procedure. This procedure includes reporting the absence
electronically through Family Access or by calling our attendance line at
(262)-560-3102. When you file the absence, please mention that your
student is attending the baseball game. By doing this, your child will
automatically be excused from school at the end of block C at 1:05 p.m. on
Tuesday.
- To
limit the number of disruptions during the day, students will not be
issued passes and should plan to leave at the transition between blocks C
and D. Attendance will be taken as usual at the start of Block D, and any
student who left without parent permission will be subject to the
appropriate consequence per our attendance policy.
- It
is a busy week in our office, so it would be extremely helpful to our
office staff if you could report the absence by 3:00 p.m. on Monday, June
3.
- Parking
on the streets around Roosevelt Field will be limited. Students attending
the game are encouraged to walk.
- Please
double check with teachers to ensure that there are not any summative
assessments assigned for Tuesday afternoon. Teachers must have final
grades reported at the end of the week and will not be available to
provide make-up assessments during Pride.
- Students who prioritize the game over any
exams or projects could significantly alter their final grades in the
class.
Go Raccoons!
