Thank you for your assistance. This helps cut down on
classroom disturbance and interruptions.
As a reminder, phone calls/emails are not accepted for the release of students to leave early. Thank you for your understanding.

Information from Class Meetings
As we begin 2nd Semester, there are a few areas in which I believe we can improve. I reminded students of our goal to remain in class as much as possible and to have a pass when not in class. I also reviewed the dress code with students, specifically hats and midriffs, which we have seen a rise in. Finally, I stressed the importance of everyone taking ownership in maintaining a safe and clean school. We must all do our part to help. Students were encouraged to talk to a staff member if they see things that make them feel uncomfortable.
