Nyssa High School Students and Parents,
Just a reminder that we have parent conferences tonight and tomorrow. Appointments have been set for those students required to have a conference. Priority was given to struggling students. Please have your student check their email for a zoom conference invitation. If you have not been contacted but would still like to meet with teachers, please call or email the teacher.
Estudiantes y padres de la escuela secundaria Nyssa,
Solo un recordatorio de que tenemos conferencias de padres esta noche y mañana. Se han establecido citas para aquellos estudiantes que deben tener una conferencia. Se dio prioridad a los estudiantes con dificultades. Por favor haga que su estudiante revise su correo electrónico para ver si hay una invitación a la conferencia de zoom. Si no ha sido contactado pero aún le gustaría reunirse con los maestros, por favor llame o envíe un correo electrónico al maestro.
High School Students,
As per our school district calendar there is no school tomorrow Friday October 16. This includes distance learning and on campus support.
Nyssa High School Students and Parents:
Conferences are coming up on Wednesday, October 28 and Thursday October, 29. The exact times are as follows: Wednesday Evening 5:00-8:30, Thursday AM 8:00-12:00, PM 1:00-4:00, and Evening 5:00-8:30. Our conferences will be zoom conferences and if necessary phone conferences. Due to Covid-19 we will not be having in person meetings with students or parents during these conference times. We cannot possibly meet with every student. Our priority will be to meet with any student who has a D or an F in one or more classes. If your student is struggling our school will be calling soon to schedule a conference. Thank you.
Estudiantes y padres de familia de Nyssa:
Las conferencias se llevarán a cabo el miércoles 28 de octubre y el jueves 29 de octubre. Los horarios exactos son los siguientes: miércoles por la noche 5:00-8:30, jueves de 8:00am-12:00pm y 1:00pm-4:00pm y por la tarde de 5:00pm-8:30pm Nuestras conferencias serán conferencias por zoom y si es necesario, conferencias telefónicas. Debido a Covid-19, no tendremos reuniones en persona con estudiantes o padres durante estos horarios de conferencias. Posiblemente no podamos reunirnos con todos los estudiantes. Nuestra prioridad será reunirnos con cualquier estudiante que tenga una D o una F en una o más clases. Si su estudiante tiene dificultades, nuestra escuela le llamará pronto para programar una conferencia. Gracias.
High School Students and Parents,
Just a reminder that the end of first quarter is quickly approaching on Friday October 23. It is essential that students are passing their quarter 1 classes as these grades are used to award half a credit towards graduation and are recorded on student transcripts. With the extended class time this is equivalent to a semester grade.
Estudiantes y Padres,
Recuerde que el final del primer trimestre se acerca rápidamente el viernes 23 de octubre. Es esencial que los estudiantes aprueben sus clases del primer trimestre, ya que estas calificaciones se utilizan para otorgar medio crédito para la graduación y se registran en las transcripciones de los estudiantes. Con el tiempo de clase extendido, estas calificaciones se equivalen un medio año de clase. Gracias!
Nyssa High School Students:
Just a reminder that there is no school tomorrow due to our county-wide inservice day. Thank you.

A 4 period block schedule will be used at Nyssa High School for distance learning this fall. This instruction will follow a set daily schedule and include daily live instruction.
Parents still have the option to do online learning with edgenuity which is at the students own pace and on their own schedule but does not include live instruction from Nyssa High School teachers.
We are currently working on individual student schedules and will have more information about distance learning and edgenuity online out to parents soon.
Due to Covid and the most recent state mandates our Nyssa High School schedule this year will be 4 block classes first semester and 4 block classes second semester. Classes will be 75 minutes in length. A previous year long class worth one credit will now be completed in a semester block class. Students will begin the school year on August 26, 2020. Prior to that date students will be issued their schedule based on the schedule requests from last fall. We appreciate your patience in this time of constantly changing state mandates.

Nyssa High School Registration.
Nyssa high school registration this year will be online. Registration will open Monday July 27 at 12:00 pm and we are asking all parents to register by the end of the day Friday July 31. It is critical that you register your student as we need to know if you intend for your high school student to attend school onsite or online.
If your child previously attended Nyssa School District you are able to register your student using your ParentVue Login on your computer or from the web browser on your phone. If you do not know your ParentVue Login, do not create a new login and call the high school for help.
Please also contact the high school for any students new to Nyssa School District. If you have any questions or concerns regarding online high school registration please contact the high school by calling 541-372-2287.
Nyssa High School Dress Code Update: Our intentions to change the dress code were to have a clear expectation that was easily enforced, to reduce negative interaction with students, and to be consistent with the middle school since our students use both buildings. In consideration of the many restrictions that will be required of students to return to school due to covid, we have made the decision to keep the dress code the same as last year. As you shop please choose modest clothing. Just as required last year, skirts and shorts need to be at least fingertip length with no clothing having rips or holes above the fingertips. We appreciate your help. Mr. Jackman

Dear Nyssa High school parents/students, there has been a change in our calendar for the month of DECEMBER. On the original calendar we had the 6th of December as a no school day and the 13th as a regular school day.
Due to some unforeseen conflicts, it was necessary to switch these days.
So now the 6th of December WILL BE A REGULAR SCHOOL DAY!
And there will be NO SCHOOL ON DEC. 13th!
Please make this change to your calendars. Thank you! #markyourcalendars #nhs #gobigblue
