MySchoolBucks Accounts

Supporting Student Responsibility for Make-Up Testing

We want to ensure that all students have fair access to make-up testing opportunities. Unfortunately, we’ve noticed a pattern of students reserving make-up test slots but not showing up, which prevents others from being able to schedule their tests.

To address this, we are reinforcing our policy: When students sign up for a make-up test, they are committing to that time. If they can no longer attend, they must provide at least 24 hours' notice so the spot can be made available to another student. Failure to do so may impact their ability to schedule future make-up tests.

We appreciate your support in encouraging students to take responsibility for their appointments and helping us maintain a fair and accessible system for all.

Don't Miss the Winton Arts Show!

Please join us for our annual Winton Arts Show on Thursday, April 10 at 6:00 PM, in the lobby of the LAPC on De La Salle's campus!

In Monica Sakkis’s AP 2D Art class, students conducted a year-long, in-depth, sustained investigation on a topic of their choice. After an extensive process of exploring artistic techniques, experimenting with media, and engaging in the process of revision, AP and 2D students are preparing their artistic work for presentation! We are so excited to partner with DLS to showcase this unique body of student work. 

The reception for the Arts Show begins at 6:00 PM and coincides with opening night for the CHS/DLS Company performance of Hadestown: Teen Edition. Purchase tickets for Hadestown here. Thank you for your support of the Arts on Winton Drive!

Carondelet shares opportunities from outside organizations for informational purposes only. We do not affiliate with or endorse any particular organizations.

We’ve shared plans with the extended Carondelet community and now look forward to strong partnership and investment in this important project. The sooner we fund this campaign, the sooner our students will be in their new space, using it to maximize their promise and potential every day. This project is five months—start to finish—so if we fundraise fast we can break ground this spring and be ready to welcome students to the Boscacci Performance Center as they start school in the Fall.

The Power of Her takes the Power of Us… please reach out to your development team to continue the conversation, share ideas, and explore giving opportunities.

Thank you for using your power to empower her!
