More than 125 families visited ConVal High School during Open House on September 22.
After being greeted by Principal Heather McKillop on the apron, families proceeded to the main entrance where they followed COVID protocols that are required for entry into the school, including temperature checks.
Once inside, families could briefly meet with school counselors in the link before attending TASC where they received a copy of their students' daily schedules.
The remainder of the evening was spent in classrooms where parents could meet and interact with their children's teachers.
On the way out, the ConVal School Store provided an opportunity to buy some ConVal swag.
"I was grateful to meet new families and to see many familiar faces," Heather McKillop said after the event. "Anytime we can welcome parents and guardians to the building it is exciting, as we are one school community that truly cares about helping all of our students be successful."
Ms. Sarah Gilpatrick is teaching her Algebra 1 part 2 students how to use Texas Instruments programmable calculators, called TI-Nspires, to solve systems of equations.
An equation system is two or more equations that share variables, such as x + 2y = 6 and 3x - y = 11. One way this system can be solved is by graphing each equation. The point where the two lines cross is the solution to the system.
In this example that would be when x = 4 and y = 1, or the point on the graph (4,1). Rather than creating their graphs by hand, Algebra students can enter each equation into the calculators. The TI-Nspire produces neat, clear graphs with the precise intersection point labeled.
Equation systems are used to find the value of two variables at the same time. For example, suppose Skyler and Emily buy food from the same pizza restaurant. Emily buys 2 slices and 2 iced teas for $12. Skyler buys 4 slices and 1 iced tea for $18. How much did each pizza slice (x) and each iced tea (y) cost?
[Hint: 2x + 2y = 12, and 4x + y = 18] Solution: (4,2)
The Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test is a standardized test administered by the College Board and co-sponsored by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation.
The PSAT is a great primer for the SAT, and even the ACT, but it’s more than just a trial run. PSAT scores are used to identify National Merit Scholars and award merit scholarships.
The PSAT/NMSQT is an optional test and will be administered to 11th graders on October 13, 2021, beginning at 7:30 a.m.
The test is geared toward students in 11th grade; however, students in 10th grade may also take the test.
The cost is $18 per test; fee waivers are available for income-eligible students.
The PSAT has two sections: Math and Evidence-Based Reading and Writing.
The test lasts for 2 hours and 45 minutes, excluding breaks.
The deadline for registration and payment is October 1st. Students should sign up in the counseling office.
