This year, we have changed the criteria for our Jewel of the Month assemblies. In order to be eligible to dress down, scholars must earn a set number of LiveSchool points for the month. If your child is eligible to dress down, he/she will receive a dress down ticket on Thursday. This month, invited scholars are allowed to dress down in the color GREEN!
Our goal this year is 95% daily attendance. The only excused absences are those listed below.
