CHS Juniors and Seniors Can Schedule A Block Off Per Semester
In another effort to reduce class sizes and total students in the building due to COVID concerns, CHS juniors and seniors can take advantage of scheduling one less class per semester this year. This is the same program we offer every year for upperclassman that enroll in a college class, but this year, ANY junior or senior that is on track to graduate can take advantage of a free block.
Below is an email sent to our juniors and seniors from the school counseling office.

Superintendent's COVID-19 Memo
Date: July 14, 2020
To: Chadron Public School Patrons
From: Ginger Meyer, Superintendent; Chadron Public Schools Subject: School Information
No Additional Graduation Ceremony in July
As stated last spring, we held on to hopes for a traditional graduation ceremony for the Class of 2020 by making a decision on July 1st whether we could host a traditional ceremony scheduled for July 18th. However, due to continued concerns of the spread of the COVID-19 virus, public health measures greatly limit attendance for a ceremony as well as the need for continued social distancing and screening. For example, public health advises that each graduate could only be allowed a maximum of 8 guests, other family or friends would not be allowed to attend.
Grades Will Look Different - No 4th Quarter Grade Will Be Posted
I want to remind parents and students that grades will look very different for this semester. Transcripts and report cards will not show a 4th quarter letter grade. However, full credit for the fourth quarter will be awarded based on successful completion of assignments during remote learning.
The third quarter grades were completed, so we have those posted and they will be used for calculations for GPA for the semester. No student's semester GPA will be lowered from what was posted at the end of the third quarter.
