News from our Athletic Director

Spring sports have officially come to an end. We want to thank all parents and athletes for their patience during this crazy spring season. We were so happy to see athletes out on our fields and in our gyms this year. We wish all of our 8th graders to continue with athletics in High School and hope they all are successful in what they decide to do! As for the 6th and 7th graders, we will see you next year!!

Q: What if my child turns in a damaged device/charger?

• Damaged devices/chargers will be assessed fines based on the level of damage.

Q: What if my child turns in a device that was not checked out to them?

• Devices/chargers were checked out to each student via scanned barcode. Students are responsible for the device/charger checked out to them. If after all devices are turned in, your child has an outstanding device--a fine will be assessed.

Q: My child turned in their device and charger--but a fine was still issued. Why?

• Sometimes, students checked out devices/chargers for the day because they did not have the device/charger checked out to them. If these devices/chargers were not returned at the end of the day, they are still checked out to them, and they are responsible for them.

Q: Will my child get a device next school year?

• Currently the plan is for all secondary students to be issued a device next school year.
• Students who have outstanding fines may be asked to settle the fine prior to being issued a new device.
