Important Announcements
Music Notes
March is MIOSM!
During Music In Our School Month we will celebrate music education and the importance of making music for a lifetime! Students will enjoy guest musicians from our community before school or during lunch throughout the month. This week our featured musician is Ms. Jordan Bowen! She is a student intern from Lander University. She will be singing classical and popular vocal selections during all lunches on Friday, March 8th.
Happy Harmonica!
Third graders have completed their harmonica unit. They will bring their harmonicas home this week. Your child can play 3 songs with proper technique for you. Ask them to play a song they composed as well! Mrs. Cohoon and Mrs. Senn are very proud of our fine musicians!
It is National School Breakfast Week!
Student Attendance
Due to new chronic absenteeism reporting procedures for the state, students are required to be at school for 50% of the day in order to be counted present, regardless of whether the absence is excused or unexcused. At the elementary level, students that arrive after 11:10 am, or who are dismissed prior to 11:10 am, are not counted present for the day. On Early Release Days, students who arrive after 9:45 am, or are dismissed before 9:45 am, will not be counted present for the day.
