***IMPORTANT REMINDER for ALL AP/AT STUDENTS: If you have issues during your test (you become sick, internet goes down, sibling distraction, you receive error messages, submissions fail to upload, etc.), you can fill out an incident/exception form and apply to take the June make-up test. You MUST do that within 48 hours of your May test date. The form can be found HERE. Please refrain from contacting your AP teacher or Mrs. Kulp on exam day – we cannot assist you on exam day and communication with us could jeopardize your opportunity for a make-up test.

More details about make-up requests can be found on slide 44 in the 2020 AP At-Home Testing Guide.  Also, consider reviewing these Troubleshooting Tips prior to your exam(s).

If you have any questions related to your exam(s), please contact Mrs. Kulp PRIOR to your exam date(s).

Hello everyone! If you’re interested in being on the Cannon Upper School Newspaper (CUSP) staff this upcoming school year, please fill out this LINK so that we can communicate with you quickly and easily. We hope to see you on our team for the 2020-2021 school year!

From Drake Griffith and Reilly Kungl and Project Spread Joy connects older adults who may be alone or lonely with young people in their community through the mail or through a lively, engaging, weekly phone call. We are looking for more volunteers every day who would like to be apart of this program. If you would be so kind to post this as follows that would be great. Thanks so much.

Do you need more service hours? Do you need something to put on yourresume for during quarantine? Do you want to do an easy task to give back to the community?

If a yes was given to any of these questions. Reilly Kungl and Drake Griffith have something for you: Project Spread JOY.

Special Reminder for AP/AT Students: AP exam takers are excused from all classes on their AP exam days.

Please reach out to Mrs. Kulp with questions.
