Parent Newsletter
Week of August 21st

Hello Red Devils!
I hope everyone had a great weekend. We will have a half day this Wednesday, August 23rd with students dismissing at 12:00 p.m.
The iReady Diagnostics will continue this week. As a school, we have dedicated time to CREW which establishes and cultivates a sense of family & community to build character habits such as respect, responsibility, integrity, and kindness, and promote these habits every day!
Parents, please be advised that students are not allowed to wander the campus if they stay after for athletic games. If they stay on campus, they must remain in the gym until the game starts. Also, we do not allow bookbags inside of games, so it is the best practice that they take them home. Please be mindful of the heat! Game time changes (beginning at 6:00 p.m.) may occur due to the heat index. Students must go home and not remain on campus if our game time changes to 6:00 p.m.
Lastly, all students should have received a yearbook flyer of information and 8th grade students received a postcard about 8th grade ads.
The price for the yearbooks will be going up to $40 soon. Make sure you grab yours today!
This newsletter contains the following information:
1) iReady Diagnostic
2) CGMS Login Information
3) Yearbook
4) Athletic Updates
If you have questions, please reach out to your student's teacher(s). Thank you for your continued support throughout the 23-24 school year!
With RED DEVIL PRIDE,
Dr. Baldwin

Technology
Devices rollout is happening now! If your student has not received their iPad, they were absent or had an enrollment issue. We are working to get these out to students as quickly as possible after both items are complete. Students are expected to bring their iPad to school each day, charged, as well as adhere with proper use guidelines.
Please make sure you register your student and pay your iPad fee online.
