Grade Level Assemblies
For the past two weeks, students have been acclimating to the school, finding their way to new classes. Now that we are two weeks in students are aware of classroom procedures and behavior expectations. This week our grade level assistant principals have conducted assemblies to inform our students of policies and procedures of the school. We have attached the assembly slides below for your review. Thank you for your support as we continue to create a safe, learning environment for all students.

Message from Officer Hernandez- Student pick up
- Parents who pick up their child at the vacant business at the corner of Piney Point at I 10, please exit to the right and travel south bound.
- Remember that the two solid yellow lines means no passing. All schools are a no passing zone, so driver cannot cross the double yellow lines. Cutting across passing the double yellow lines are very risky and could cause an accident.
- Lastly, please stop for the school bus when loading or unloading students. Buses will activate their red lights and stop sign. Traffic must stop in both directions.
Late Bus
All students taking the late bus will be dropped off at the nearest elemtary school.
Please plan accordingly.
