6th Graders on Top this week
...make sure to come to school everyday! Research shows that students are more likely to succeed in academics if they attend school consistently.
- Students should be arriving to school by 7:40AM to have time to get to their locker and get into their homeroom seat by 7:50am. This includes students who are getting dropped off. Please drop your child off by the cafeteria by 7:40AM.
- If your child is coming in the morning to see a teacher, he/she needs to enter through the cafeteria and sign out. The cafeteria opens at 7:15AM for students to enter. Please do not use the front door entrance.
Get a good nights sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and keep up the great work! A+
