Open House is this Thursday Sept 6th. 6:00 to 7:30. Hope to see you tomorrow.

Hello Parents,

Well, we’ve made it to our final full week of school for the year. A few things to note as we are winding down the year.

All library books that are still checked out need to be returned by the end of the day tomorrow. On Friday, all students will participate in a locker clean out. Besides their textbooks, there shouldn’t be anything left in their lockers. Please tell them to bring home all of their personal items. Next week, lockers should only be used for their textbooks, which will be getting collected.

Speaking of next week, all students are required to take their final exam. That said, Dearborn Public Schools and DHS understand that the Eid El Iftar Holiday may be June 14 which is our scheduled last day of school. Therefore, we have moved our final exam schedule one day earlier, possibly starting on Monday, June 11.  A half day of school is still scheduled to be in session on June 14 but there will not be any final exams on this day.

As a District we plan our school calendars in advance and when planning the 17-18 school year we adjusted the calendar based on the information we had at the time which was that the Eid El Iftar may be June 15 or June 16.  We recently discussed the date with local Islamic Clergy and there is a possibility that the Eid El Iftar may be June 14.

We understand that students who are celebrating the Eid El Iftar may not be in session but we must still take regular attendance.   We appreciate your understanding and your patience on this matter and have included our final exam schedule for this year for your reference.

Thanks

Mr. Martin
