Parents/Guardians will NOT have to fill out a meal application to qualify for this benefit on these campuses. This new approach reduces burdens for both families and school administrators and helps ensure that students receive nutritious meals.
Attendance Reminder
Absences
When a student is absent, a note regarding the absence is due when the student returns to school. We are able to accept doctor and parent notes for absences. However, we will only excuse 5 parent notes each semester. Once that limit is reached, the parent note will not suffice and the absence will be considered unexcused. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation. Every minute counts!!
Late Arrival and Early Pick Up
Students are considered tardy at 8:21 AM. Students arriving after 8:20 AM will need to check in at the front office. After 3 tardies, students will be assigned After School Detention.
The school day ends at 3:50 PM. When a student is checked out prior to 3:50, they are considered to have missed instruction. At 5 early check outs, students will receive an After School Detention.
All tardies and early check outs that are accompanied by a DOCTOR'S NOTE will be considered excused.
