SOARing to Improve Scholar Outcomes
This Week's SOARing Updates
- Families Remain In Vehicles- We are mastering our arrival/dismissal procedures... We ask that parents do not exit vehicles during drop-off or dismissal. We will service families from their vehicles first.
- Parking on Taft Street Side of Building Prohibited during Dismissal- We ask that ALL car-riders are picked up on the Cleveland Street Side of the Building.
Masks Are Highly Recommended @ JC
Picking Scholars Up Early
- Closed Campus @ 2:30 PM - Doors lock at that time to prepare for a safe dismissal
We humbly ask that you allow your scholar to attend school for the entire day as our goal is to increase academics and exceed the district and state. In order for the team to make sure we meet our goal, we need our families. We understand emergencies, but we ask that you would honor our SOAR. Leave our scholars with us for the duration of the school day.

Helpful Reminders to Share With Your Scholar About Testing
Scholars can get anxious about taking a test. Consider sharing the following reminders with them. You might get questions on something you haven’t learned. It’s okay if you don’t know the answer. Pick the one you think is right. Don’t rush. It’s more important to do the best you can than to be the first to finish. MAP Growth will pause a scholar’s test if they’re rushing through and clicking any response. Take your time and do your best!
Attendance Matters
- Send excuse notes to school with your scholar the day they return to campus.
- Notify the campus the day of your scholar's absence.
