Continuous Enrollment Notification
REMINDER: The convenience of continuous enrollment was live as of January 2018! Your child is now conveniently re-enrolled each year without lifting a finger. Should anything change, all you need to do is schedule an appointment with your child’s principal and complete a withdrawal form no later than March 15th.
The $240 re-enrollment fee will be billed to your account annually on March 16th.
Tuition will automatically be billed via RenWeb.
Failure to withdraw before March 15th will incur a 50% charge of the upcoming school year’s tuition.
Thank you for entrusting your child's education to us. We consider it a privilege to be part of your family's life!
“Apply thine heart unto instruction,
and thine ears to the words of knowledge.”
Proverbs 23:12
Box Tops for Education
It’s time to send in those Box Tops! Send your Box Tops in a baggie labeled with your homeroom teacher’s name so that your student’s class will get the credit. Please remember to cut on the dotted line to make it easier for volunteers to attach it to the template. The spring deadline is Friday, February 22nd, 2019.
Thanks,
Nicole Doremus
PTF Incentives Coordinator

Math Mastery Summer Camp Classes
This summer program is designed to give students the additional help of a teacher on the Summer Math Mastery Assignments. This course is designed to give or reinforce prerequisite skills required for the math course your child will be entering in the Fall. In addition to these topics, we will also be covering ACT strategies throughout the course. We will meet for one 75 minute session per week for weeks throughout the summer. If your child struggles in math or just simply would like some accountability from a teacher throughout the summer in order to be prepared for your math mastery test at the start of school then this course is for you. This program will be taught by Victor Underwood.
Supplies: Notebook paper, graphing paper, calculator, iPad or computer, pencil
