A Message from the Principal
As a reminder, we encourage families to regularly check in on their child’s social media use and online activity. Middle school students are still learning how to navigate the digital world, and they don’t always recognize how quickly posts, messages, or comments can impact friendships, feelings, or even their school day.
Taking time to monitor accounts, set boundaries, and have open conversations about internet safety can make a big difference. Knowing who they are talking to, what apps they are using, and reminding them to be respectful and responsible online helps keep everyone safer.
If something happens online that affects your child at school, please reach out and let us know. We are always here to help and partner with you to support our Tigers.
As always, ASAP is available Monday–Thursday until 4:30 p.m. If you would like your child to stay after school for extra help, please reach out to the office to make arrangements.
