Student Devices, Storm Days & eLearning

Moving forward, student devices (iPads & Chromebooks) will only be sent home IF the weather is predicted to be stormy. The decisions are made at the building level. When/if your child brings a device home, please make sure it is sent back to school the next day along with the bag, charging cord and headphones. The next no school day WILL be an eLearning day. Thank you!

Eagles February Attendance

This past month 63% of our students have regular attendance. This is up 1% from January- nice work! Our students that have been severely chronically absent have decreased from 15 students in December to 4 students in February. We want all students to be here every day when they are healthy. Please let us know how we can help you or your child if they are struggling to be at school. Our goal is to have 80% of our students regularly attending school and we can do it with your help!
