February
Sorry this is a little late, but you know what they say better late then never....
Well the month maybe a little shorter, but that does not mean we pack any less into it. We have lots of events this month and look forward to all the exciting happenings. Please be sure to add them to the family calendar.
I want to remind parents that we have an early dismissal at 12:35 on Monday, February 3rd as well as a 1:35 dismissals on Wednesday, February 12th and Wednesday, February 26th. These are scheduled Professional Development Days for teachers.
Parents, we use SchoolBrains for our Student Record keeping. This system allows parents to review up to date grading, attendance and other information that will help you support your student. If you do not have access, please contact us at assistance@capetech.us

Attendance Matters
95.31%
That was our 1st trimester attendance rate! That is good, but it needs to be better. Last year our Trimester 1 Attendance Rate was 96.1%. Parents and students we need to work together to get this number up. Attendance matters.
The state expects a 95% rate for student attendance. We want to achieve a 95.9% rate for the year. We can do this, but students need to come to school everyday. No excuses. Remember, your boss will expect you at work everyday, and so will your co-workers. Build healthy habits now. Come to school because we want you here!
