High Expectations:
Every Scholar, Every Day
A Word from Principal Haynes
Greetings Parents,
Congratulations to our bike winners!! Parents of the winning scholars will need to be at the school on Monday, December 17th at 6PM to receive the bikes from our sponsors with the Latinos in Action Group at Falcon Cove Middle School.
We hope to see you at the school Holiday Performance on Tuesday night at 6:15 PM. The gates up front will be opened by 5PM for you to drop off your scholars who are participating, however, please know that you must be in attendance and there to get them following the performance. The back gates will not be opened until 6PM for additional parking.
Remember the Kindergarten Holiday Program is for parents/guardians/grandparents ONLY. Siblings in Gr. 1-5 will NOT be able to be released for the show. Remember we are under different and tighter security measures. You will be asked to leave the cafeteria following the show before we release the scholars to go back to class.
I want to take a moment to wish all of my Village Families a wonderful, blessed, and joyous holiday season and a prosperous new year!!
Let's make this another great week of High Expectations--Every Scholar--Every Day!!!
Wishing you an AMAZING and BLESSED week!!
Principal Haynes

Field Trip Expectations
Field trips are an opportunity for us to provide scholars with exposure to many activities and events throughout the county and state. We want our scholars to participate and field trips are open to ALL scholars. That said, I need YOU in partnership with us to explain to scholars expectations regarding behavior. When teachers take scholars off campus, it is imperative that they know and understand how to LISTEN to adults and are responsible to stay with the group. The last thing I want is for a child to get lost and/or hurt on our watch. Make sure that you have conversations with your child about this.
If your child has been struggling with maintaining appropriate behavior on campus, it MAY become necessary for administration to have a conversation with you about whether or not the field trip is appropriate for your child. If you are in doubt, talk with your child's teacher about their behavior. Field trip payments are non-refundable and I don't want anyone to lose money because of their child's poor choices. Let's partner together to make sure our scholars understand the expectations of field trip participation.
