Panther Press
for the week of January 16th
Message from the Principal
All teachers should make sure they read the packet that was sent out to you this past week. All teachers are responsible for its contents. The administrators will begin checking grade books this weekend.
We will be introducing an ACT Aspire Student Incentive Program in the coming weeks. Look for more details before February 1st.
All teachers are required to have a substitute folder in their classroom complete with class rosters and emergency lessons. We understand that from time to time thing happen and a full blown lesson cannot be created to cover an absence so it is an imperative that emergency lessons are in the folder. We still have issues with finding enough substitutes and it really is not fair to any of your colleagues to have to create a lesson for your class when they end up having to cover.
All students are required to have passes when in the hall during class time. There is no exception to this. We have way too many students in the hall after the tardy bell and quite a few of them have been let out by teachers without a pass.
Please ensure you are monitoring your kids in the lunchroom not only when they are at the table eating but also when they are going through the line.
Go Panthers!
