THANK YOU, GOCHNAUER FARMS!
All sections of preschool visited Gochnauer Farms in West Concord last week. The students loved seeing all the animals and learning about milking. Hosting three separate field trips is a huge undertaking, but they were so gracious and willing to make this trip special for all of our students. They even sent each student home with a goody bag! Thank you so much for hosting us, Jacob and Megan!

PRINCIPAL'S UPDATE
Thank you for taking a minute to stay up to date by reviewing the latest Cobra Connections Newsletter. As we finish the school year, we want to make sure and maximize the opportunities in front of us and enjoy these last days of the 2024-25 school year. A few reminders for families are listed below. These practices will help us make sure the year ends positively and we are on track for next year.
Attendance
Regular attendance is important throughout the entire school year. Our teachers are still working hard to make sure all required course content is covered. Showing up and showing up on time are life skills that need to be practiced. We appreciate your help making sure your child attends school when they are able. Please remember that we do not have "skip days" at the end of the year and unexcused absences and progressive discipline will be in place if needed.
Grades and Transcripts
We earn credit at Triton High School by semester. That means final grades will be posted on June 5 for work going back to the end of January. We do not want surprises at the end of the semester, and we want to make sure all students are on pace to graduate. If you have not done so in a while, I highly recommend logging into Infinite Campus and checking your child's grades. Even better, take a minute or two and go through grades with them and have them explain what learning experiences are approaching.
Report cards will be mailed the week of June 9. Grades will be available via the Infinite Campus Portal at 3:30 PM on June 5.
Respect and Responsibility
The end of the school year is now in sight. I am very proud of our students for their hard work throughout the school year. Please remember "because it's the end of the school year" is not an excuse for not putting forth an effort or for inappropriate behavior.
Thank you for your partnership and help as we make sure the end of the year goes well for all students and families. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns.
