Scholars are loving Zearn!
I am so excited to see the scholars working on Zearn to help them with the love of math and to increase their skills. We have started a Zearn club and are utilizing Zearn in advantage so scholars can many opportunities to get access to the program!
BUT GUESS WHAT? You can have your very own Zearn time at home! Scholars can access this program from home, on a tablet, phone, laptop and any other electronic device! Let's make sure they are on it every night.
More use=More growth!

SERIOUS ANNOUNCEMENTS
Parents Morning and Dismissal drop off/pick-up
- Parents if you pull up at 7:55 please get out and sign your scholars in. Please don't just send them in it holds up their time to go to class as we then have to sign them in. If you sign them in they can go inside.
- At dismissal please DO NOT attempt to stand by front doors this space must be with staff and scholars only. We want to ensure no one walks off with one of our scholars.
Pick-Up
- Scholars must be picked up by 4:00. School gets out at 3:30. On Wednesdays its 1:50 and scholars need to be picked up at 2:20. We are very accommodating and even allow for grace times. However, we have scholars who are being left until after 5:00. This is unacceptable. Our faculty and staff are people as well and have families and children in other places to get to as well.
- Most importantly it is neglect for scholars to be left that long after school. It's unfair to your scholar, they have had a long day and don't like being left behind. Please know that moving forward we will be contacting authorities for the consistency of this behavior and it will effect next year enrollment acceptance.
- Advantage pick-up starts 4:00 Late is 4:15 on Wednesdays it at starts at 2:30 late pick-up fees begins at 2:45
