Junior Leadership Council's Spirit Week
Attendance Matters
The state of Ohio passed House Bill 410, regarding absenteeism in schools. This has caused West Carrollton to change/update our attendance policies. Information on this can be found on the district website, and in the handbook. However, we understand that the change can cause confusion. Please read part three of our three-part attendance fact "cheat sheet"!
Fact #3
The state of Ohio has changed from days absent to hours. Please be aware that tardy arrivals and early pick-ups can affect your attendance hour requirements. We appreciate you working with us to keep students here, on-time, everyday, all day!

Coffee with the Counselor
We are pleased to introduce a new resource called Coffee with the Counselor. Coffee with the Counselor is an opportunity for parents to add tools to their parenting “toolbox” by attending a brief, informal workshop hosted by one of our elementary School Counselors Miss Jasmine Tolbert and Mrs. Sara Opperman. Coffee and pastries will be served and there will be a question and answer period as well. Coffee with the Counselor will take place quarterly and will cover the following topics:
First quarter: Using rewards and positive reinforcements to change behavior; hosted by Miss Tolbert at Frank Nicholas, registration is from 8:30-8:45a and the workshop is from 8:30-9:15 on October 12, 2017.

Our spirit wear fall sale was a huge success. All orders have been filled and delivered to students. Also, those that upgraded to Platinum membership status have received their car decals. We are still waiting on the bracelets to ship. Unfortunately, the storms in other parts of the country are making delivery a bit slow. We appreciate your continued patience.
