HOMEWORK CLUB EVERYDAY AFTER SCHOOL
MATH CLUB
MATH CLUB EVERY MORNING AT 7:00AM
Math Club is open to students that want support with 6th-8th grade math. The front gate will open at 7:00am just for those students. Students will still be served breakfast starting at 7:25am and the campus will continue to fully open at 7:40am.
Thanks.
Front Gates Open at 7:25 am Every Morning for Breakfast
Due to a loss of critical Title 1 funding this past year, the front gate will not open until 7:25 am. Please DO NOT DROP OFF YOUR STUDENT(S) BEFORE 7:25 am. There will be no adult supervision for your child/children. This is new this year, due to a loss of funding that previously paid for supervision during early student drop-off. Students will be permitted on campus for breakfast service beginning at 7:25 am.
