- SC enacted a state law (ACT 204, formerly House Bill 5073) that officially bans "grade floor" policies in public schools, taking effect on July 1, 2026. Students will no longer receive a minimum grade of 50; instead, their grades will accurately reflect the performance they have earned. This law will impact students in grades 3-12.
- MHS students must submit all assignments on time and must complete the course with a final grade between 55 and 59 to qualify for credit recovery.
- Regularly check your child's PowerSchool portal account to monitor their progress.
- Interim reports will be sent home on August 27.
- Attendance counts.
