School Supplies
Assalamu alaykum,
As we advance into the third quarter, it is important to make sure students are as prepared for school as they first started. They should come to school with adequate supplies. This entails having chromebooks charged the night before, bringing in extra pens, pencils, and paper among other supplies. Students should come to school with their assignments printed out from home.
If students come without necessary supplies to learn in class they will be sent to the office to purchase them for a minimal charge. This is needed to instill responsibility in our students. Any chromebooks found left behind will be brought to the office. Students will be able to retrieve them for a small fee. IOUs will not be offered at this time. We appreciate everyone's cooperation.
