ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. – Bartram Trail High School finds itself in the middle of a national debate over kneeling during the national anthem. For the past two weeks, some members of the school’s football team have kneeled during the playing of the national anthem. It happened at the game on Sept. 11 against Creekside and then at Friday’s game at Mandarin High School. It is done in absolute silence and reverence.”Kneeling during the national anthem has become a major flash point in sports since former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick began sitting during it in 2016. Silent protests during the anthem at the high school level, at least locally, have been slower to develop, but the turbulence of 2020 has made those more visible.

Report cards now available for St. Johns County students

Read full article: Report cards now available for St. Johns County students

ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. - Second semester report cards are now available for St. Johns County middle and high school students. Students looking for their report cards can access them through the home access center, or HAC, provided their families have completed the returning student verification process. Though report cards are already out for elementary students, middle and high school students had to wait until their grades became official. The report cards weren't sent out right away because the school district had to wait for the state to release results of standardized tests and end-of-course exams to finalize student grades. In April, News4Jax reported that St. Johns County's district final exams were canceled because of technical error.
