Greetings from Mrs. Musick

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Sickness impacted our school again last week and we still have kids out so far this week. We are hopeful that we start to have consistent attendance again and have our students on the mend soon! As a reminder, students with a temperature of 100.4 should remain home and need to be fever free for 24 hours. We appreciate all who have called in to let us know their child was sick and all who made arrangements to get homework to keep them caught up.


What a couple weeks it has been for me to see the many talents our students have. In the past two weeks, I have seen multiple boys and girls basketball games, 3rd grade girls basketball team on Saturdays, caught a bit of our 2nd/3rd grade boys basketball team this past Saturday, archery tournaments, FBLA districts, High School Scholar Bowl, Spelling Bee, handed out AR rewards, heard our Pep Band, have seen multiple students for positive office referrals, got to celebrate our 2nd quarter A, A/B, and B.U.G. Award students, and have seen lots of classrooms at work learning. I am always so impressed with how well our students do at different events and each day in our classrooms. Seeing our students excel is my favorite part of the job. We should all be so very proud of our students and school district!


We had the privilege of showcasing our school district to Dr. Eslinger, DESE Commissioner, and Dr. Melia Franklin. While here, they were so impressed with our facilities, staff, and students. They went into multiple classrooms and interacted with our staff and students about the important things going on in our school.

It is always a great day to be a Hornet!

Reminders for the School Year Reminders for the School Year

zoom_out_map

Drop off in mornings from 7:55-8:00: We are having several cars in front of school between 7:55-8:00 which is the time the buses are pulling in. If you could please park further down towards our marquee sign or along road opposite of post office, that would help with buses pulling in. If you drop off between 7:45 and 7:55, you are fine to park in front of school to drop off.

Home Basketball Games: To help with supervision, here are a few reminders: The cafeteria should be off limits during games. Students in grades 6 and below should be accompanied by an adult. If your child is going to play outside during the game, please know they are your responsibility. We are starting to pull out the bleachers by the stage to increase our seating. Please try to avoid sitting on stage--we try to save that for managers, admin, and keep that area free of distraction to our scorekeepers. Thank you!

Change to your child's end of day routine: Please be sure to let the office know of any changes to end of day routine by 2:30. Please know without a note, call to office, or email to teacher, we will have to send them home their normal way. Be sure we are notified if there is a change.

Unprepared: Students in grades 5-12 can be marked unprepared. Once class starts, students are unprepared if they don't have their book, notes, homework, chromebook, or charger. It can also be marked unprepared for an uncharged chromebook. Once a student gets three, a note will go home. Once they receive the 4th, a phone call will be made by me and they will have to serve a detention. More detentions come after the 4th unprepared if more are given. These will restart at semester.

Coats/Jackets: With the change in weather, please make sure your child is coming with a coat or jacket!
