September Newsletter

A heartfelt thank you to all our families who attended Back to School Night! Your presence and commitment to your children's education inspire our entire school community. We're grateful for your partnership and look forward to working together this year.

We will be utilizing SmartPass, a digital hall pass system, will be implemented at all of our secondary schools.

What is SmartPass?

SmartPass is a secure, digital tool that replaces traditional paper hall passes. Students use their school-issued devices to request and receive passes, allowing staff to better manage hallway activity and support student safety.

Why are we using it?

SmartPass helps:

• Reduce unnecessary hallway traffic

• Improve student accountability

• Enhance overall safety and supervision
