Past PTIA Meeting on Tuesday October 3rd:
We had about 38 parents in attendance and Principal Griffin, Ms Juco, Ms Hallmark and the PTIA Board shared lots of valuable information in the meeting.
If you missed it, you can download the October PDF of the presentations in the link here.
* Couple of Notes:
- Junior Parents, Ms Juco reinforced that the Junior Timeline for their IB internals and assessments that they will start second semester will come out after 1st semester, if you are interested in having a calendar sooner, email her and she will send out information sooner.
- Senior Parents, your students will get a visit from Ms. Juco before the end of the month, check in with them to discuss and help select their 3 HL and 3 SL IB exam choices. You can only do Math HL if you are on the Math 3 track from 9th grade. Her tip and Mr. Griffin's: let your student select the course that they are best at for their HL exams. Don't force them to chose something just because you feel it is best. Lit, History and Bio were some of the recommendations for example. Talk with your student's teacher for their recommendations as well. Fees are due for IB exams by November 1st and are $750.00 per senior student.
* If you have questions after reading the presentation, send an email to ptiaeast.sec@gmail.com and we will help answer or route it to the right individual or contact Principal Griffin or Ms. Juco with their emails.
The presentations have lots of valuable details that you will want read about and make notes of.
