Timberwolf Times
A peek at the week
FYI: Attendance
Students are considered tardy after the 7:45 a.m. bell has rung and the student is not in his/her classroom. A student will also receive a tardy if he/she is signed out at any time during the school day (even if it’s at the end of the day, right before dismissal) and a medical note is not provided for such appointment.
If you need to check your child out early, please do so before 2:40 PM. This is to make sure every student gets to where they are going before the hustle of dismissal. Thank you for understanding.
It's almost time...
