Graduation Ceremony Update
After careful planning and hearing feedback from the East community, we are able to offer an option for both an outdoor appointment (that includes parents and siblings in a single car) OR an indoor appointment intended for just the graduates. If the risk level for COVID-19 changes for Salt Lake City by June 8th, then graduates who opt for an indoor appointment might have opportunity to bring two guests to their graduation.

4th Quarter Grading
- Students will continue to have the opportunity to earn high school credit during 4th term.
- It is important for students to maintain engagement in the educational activities being provided by teachers to avoid gaps in learning. However, we know that every student has a different set of circumstances, and at-home learning may create challenges that are not present in the classroom.
- Grades and report cards will still be issued. The following modifications have been put in place to support students during the remote learning period:
- No F grades will be issued during fourth term. Any grade that would have been an F will be replaced with a No Grade (NG).
- No letter grades below a C- will be issued during fourth term. Passing grades below a C- will be replaced with a Pass (P).
- Students may choose to convert any passing grade to a P if they prefer.
- . Please note the link will take you to a document in English. We are working right now on getting translations into the other primary languages spoken by families in our school district. We will post the translated PDFs as soon as we receive them from our translators and will also send them to you in our daily update when they are posted.
- If you have questions about grading, please reach out to your student’s teachers or principal. Please let us know how else we can support you and your student.
**Students may choose to have a P instead of any final letter grade. The student must communicate their choice to the teacher in an email before May 22, 2020.
