Hello USC Parents and Guardians,
Spring has arrived and soon we will enjoy the beauty of budding leaves, blossoming flowers, and the return of green lawns. It’s a time of renewal and fresh starts. Similarly, our students will experience their own new beginning as we start Quarter 4 on Thursday. This is the perfect opportunity for students to find success with a renewed focus on learning. As we wrap up Quarter 3 this week, we encourage you to support your students in finishing the school year strong as we move into Quarter 4.
During the month of March, students have demonstrated their knowledge both in and out of the classroom. The band and choir students showcased their talents in performances, while the Speech Team participated in meets. Spring sports practices have also begun, offering students the opportunity to stay active and engaged.
Seniors are preparing for their final quarter in high school, making it an exciting time for them as they look ahead to graduation. Students will have a busy quarter 4 with several milestones to achieve, including the WorkKeys assessment, final projects, and preparations for end-of-year events. As they work hard to finish strong, this quarter will be full of opportunities to reflect on their accomplishments and prepare for the next chapter in their lives.
In addition, all USC students are getting ready for upcoming standardized tests taking place in April. Please take note of the following MCA and ACT testing schedule:

As we begin Quarter 4, thank you for your continued support in helping your student succeed.

We appreciate all you do to help your student thrive both academically and personally.
With Gratitude,
