New Friday Schedule

Students will be allowed to leave at 12:05 or have lunch and then take the bus home. Students are expected to leave campus at 12:35.
New Attendance Tardy Policy
One of the issues that have been affecting our school climate and classroom learning is tardies. Being tardy to class is a disruption to other students and your teacher trying to begin class in a timely manner. Beginning Monday, November 30th, we will begin a new emphasis on reducing the number of tardies in our school. This is how it will work: beginning Monday, November 30th, any student tardy four times during the school week will be assigned Friday School the next week. This is four times cumulative during the week, not just in one class. Our goal is to promote a positive learning environment where everyone is ready to learn at the very beginning of each class. Please help everyone to get to class on time by not stopping and congregating in the halls.
Emergency Cards
Please remember to return the yellow emergency card to school ASAP. They can be turned in at the Main Office, Attendance, or Counseling.
