SALEM HILLS HIGH SCHOOL “Skyhawk Happenings”
September 21, 2020
WEARING THE MASK
Students please remember to wear your mask! It is so important that you remember to bring your mask to school, wear your mask correctly (over the nose & mouth), and try to social distance when possible. We encourage ALL to wear your masks while at sporting events, school activities, and anytime you come into the school! We have students who are repeatedly asking for a mask from the front office, so parents, please encourage your student to pack a mask!
SCHOLARSHIP Information
Southern Utah University and Snow College have changed their scholarship matrix. They are no longer requiring an ACT score. Scholarships are offered and distributed on a first come first serve basis, so make sure to apply and send transcripts as soon as possible. If you have any further questions, contact your counselor.

PARENT TEACHER CONFERENCE
Our first Parent/Teacher Conference will be held on Wednesday, September 23 from 3:00 to 8:00 PM. For the past few years we have reserved the first 2 hours of parent-teacher conference time for students to work with teachers. We will continue this approach this year. We are going to try something new this year for the remaining part of parent-teacher conferences. In order to do our best to protect everyone during our current pandemic, we would like to limit the number of in person contacts. Perhaps the easiest way to do this would be to ask parents to only come to the school to visit with teachers if your child has a C or lower in any of their classes, or if there is an underlying condition or situation that would best be addressed through a personal visit. Otherwise, we would ask you to communicate with teachers through email. Teachers will be able to do Zoom meetings and correspond with parents through phone calls as well if needed. Let your student’s teacher know what works best for you and your situation.
Our amazing PTSA is going to provide a light dinner for our teachers from 5:00-5:30, so they will not be in their rooms during this time. However, our counselors will provide training on I-campus for those interested while our teachers are eating. This training information should help parents and teachers to be able to better communicate, remain safe, and help improve learning.
AP EXAM REGISTRATION
Online registration for the 2021 AP Exams is now open! The AP Exam registration process has two steps. BOTH STEPS MUST BE COMPLETED IN ORDER TO HAVE AN AP EXAM ORDERED. Even if you do not plan to take the AP exam, you need to complete both steps to access the College Board’s AP Classroom and resources.
STEP 1: Begin the process by registering at www.TotalRegistration net/AP/450399. This link can be accessed on the SHHS webpage under the student drop down menu. You will receive your join codes and directions to complete the second required step. Any exam fees need to be paid online, so be sure to have a debit card or credit card available before beginning registration.
STEP 2: Use the join codes provided at the completion of step one to enroll the student’s AP courses and exams in the College Board’s system (https://myap.collegeboard.org). The join codes can also be obtained from your AP teacher.
Each AP exam costs $100.00 with a $2.00 processing fee. Salem Hills High School desires that every student be able to take their AP exams.
