Academic Eligibility
This year, CNE Schools is focusing on raising academic expectations and standards. The grading period ends this Friday and students must be passing 5 classes in order to participate in band during the 2nd quarter. Students must be academically eligible during the 4th grading period to attend the band and choir Florida tour. That means they must be passing 5 classes on their third quarter report card. At that point, there is no refund and we would only be able to try to find a replacement traveler.
Next week:
