ATTA EAGLE AWARD
It is time for the Atta Eagle to take flight with a person who has registered over 1,000 students and scheduled them into classes. This person is a master of her craft! She is able to put the pieces of the puzzle together and make it all work. Her knowledge of Power School is amazing and her flexibility is invaluable.
The Atta Eagle will land in the office of our registrar, the school could not run without you Liz Monts!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT STUDENT ID BADGES
With the rise of safety concerns on school campuses, the use of student, staff, and teacher ID badges make it easy to identify and authorize anyone on school grounds. These badges are also used to check materials out from the library, and pay for food. All High, Middle and Intermediate students must wear a current picture ID badge when on District Five property.
The first id card is free. However, replacing lost, stolen or damaged cards costs $5. Our budget accounts for giving students and employees their first ID cards each year. The replacement fee covers the cost of the materials used in reprinting and replacement lanyards.
The ID badge may not be marked on or altered in any way; if it is damaged, a new ID will need to be purchased. A defaced ID is any badge on which the picture, name, ID #, year, barcode or grade level has been changed, altered, or obstructed.
IMPORTANT CMS CARLINE REMINDERS
Our carline is safer and more efficient than ever, so thank you to all of our parents who follow our procedures for student drop off and pick up. We have three gentle reminders concerning the car line. Please share this information with anyone who drops off or picks up your child.
Continue to pull forward behind the car in front of you, through the curve, to the top corner of our sidewalk in both the mornings and afternoons.
Double stacking in the car line begins at 7:45 AM. Two signs are posted along the carline indicating this. Please do not begin double stacking in the mornings until 7:45 AM.
We do not use our parking lot for student drop off or pick up. The only exception is for students with administrative approval due to a documented injury and our students with special needs. All other students should be picked up or dropped off exclusively in our car line.
