If your child is absent because of Covid or being quarantined, please send a Dr. note or a positive result note of your child or a family member so that we may excuse their absences and count them present virtually. If your child is ill with something besides Covid, please call the morning your child will be absent so that we may mark them excused instead of unexcused.
Calendar Update: Due to Covid and basketball game cancellations we will not have our mini Cheer Camp next week. We will try to reschedule as soon as possible.
State Law requires students to attend school 90% of the school year. If your child has more than 8 unexcused absences during a semester, we are required to report their names to law enforcement. Students' absences can be excused if we have a doctor's note or you can call to let us know that they are running fever, vomitting, or have other contagious ilnesses. We need a call on the day the student is absent in order to excuse the absence.
Reminder: We will be having a Parent Night this evening, Thursday, 5:30-6:30 in the cafeteria. We will have a guest speaker and a few of his advocates to talk about social media safety. We encourage all parents attend. Please make plans to join us if possible.

Great place for the kids to go when they have free time!
We are excited to let you know that we will be having a Social Media Awareness and Safety Night, December 2nd, 5:30-6:30. Because of recent TicTok activity we feel this is an important meeting for especially our 3rd-8th grade parents to attend. There are so many things that we simply are not aware of that happens to children through these social media platforms. We will have a guest speaker who is up to date on trending things that may or may not affect your children. Please join us for a quick snack and lets get proactive about protecting our children! A note will be sent home today. Please sign and return as soon as possible if you plan to attend so that we may plan accordingly.
