Welcome to another episode of Ignite, the official podcast of Blackman High School, where we bring you all the latest updates and happenings straight from the principal's office. In this episode, we focus on the key events scheduled in the upcoming week.
On Tuesday, March 12th, our 11th graders will be taking the all-important ACT, a significant milestone in their academic journey and a state requirement. While our junior students are engaged in the ACT, our 9th graders will be tackling their district benchmark exams in English Language Arts and Math. Additionally, our 10th graders won't be left out as they will be preparing for their CERT benchmarks to gain valuable insights for their forthcoming ACT test.
In a bid to optimise our schedule, 12th graders will have the option of spending their day learning about real-world skills through an optional college day or a job shadow day. The fourth quarter initiates this week for all students, with the third quarter report cards being posted on Skyward come Friday.
We further remind parents about the upcoming parent-teacher conference on March 18th from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. We encourage all parents to book an appointment through the BHS website for this important event.
Important announcements for this week include the success of our JROTC Blaze Battalion Drill Team in the Rutherford County Drill as well as the upcoming HOSA meeting. We'd also like to extend our congratulations to our students who excelled at the Technology Student Association's state conference. As always, we continue to encourage everyone's commitment to safety and following the prescribed procedures for student drop-off and pickup.
Thank you for your continual support as we strive to give our students the best learning environment. Here's to a great week ahead at Blackman High and as always, Go, Blaze!
