ATTENTION PARENTS AND STUDENTS!
MORNING DROP OFF
Parents need to drop off students in the front of the school on the Spears Street Side. There is no drop off in the back of the school. All students have to go through the metal detectors when they enter the campus. Let's keep our school safe.
RESTROOM PRIVILEGES
There is a TickTok challenge going on. Students are challenged to "steal from school" or "steal from your teacher". Students are vandalizing and stealing soap dispensers, paper towel holders, computers, tablets, signage, etc. They are trashing restroom which causes schools to limit/restrict restroom use. Please check your child's social media accounts and their belongings. Students who vandalize the school or steal school property will receive severe consequences. Let's keep our school clean, respect our school property and keep it presentable for us to enjoy.
