Principal's Message
Dear Families,
Daily Student Attendance is arguably the most important indicator of student success. Students cannot learn when they are not in school. When students are not in school, it's very easy to fall behind. Nothing replaces the impact of in-person learning. Make-up work can pile up very quickly. When students return from an extended hiatus, they not only have to complete the make-up work, but they also have to contend with their regular classroom assignments. Students often make the decision to rush through or completely ignore the make-up work so that they can keep pace with their regular class studies. Doing this naturally creates a learning gap and causes the student’s grades to drop. Over time, this learning gap increases to the point where it becomes nearly impossible to close. It is important to reach out to the attendance office when your child is absent and for the student to reach out to their teacher for assignments early, when they know they will miss class. If attendance issues arise, please reach out to counselors & school administration. Please plan doctor & dentist appointments after school to preserve key learning opportunities.
Spring Semester - 2nd Grading Period Ends - April 5
All assignments and make/up tests need to be completed, according to your child's teacher's schedule.
