STAAR Report Card
Discipline Reminders
Parents - these are some things that we've been talking to the kids about recently. Please help us by talking to them too.
- Dress Code - Problems we've addressed lots recently: short/skirt length, tanks under open shirts
- Figits - Teachers will take up if they are getting in the way of a student doing work
- Fights - It's that time of year. Please talk to your kids about consequences for fighting.
- Disrespect - We don't expect "no sir" and "yes sir" but we do expect "yes" and "no" and to be spoken to in a respectful tone.
- Clowning - We all like to have a good time but there is still work to be done.
We have wonderful kids here at HJH but it's the season where they are "done" with school. Thanks for helping!
