HIV/AIDS/Consent Presentation - 8th Grade Students

Friday, May 3, our 8th grade students will take part in a HIV/AIDS/Consent presentation sponsored by the Pittsburg County Health Department. This presentation will address how HIV/AIDS can be transmitted and the potential dangers to one's health. In addition, Ambra Gibson, RN, will discuss topics on "age of consent" and Oklahoma laws associated with age of consent.

A Note From Ms. Miller...

Before School Tutoring

Morning tutoring will be available in the cafeteria from 7:15-7:45 with Mrs. McElhany and Mrs. Burgess.

Tardies

Morning Tardies - Our first bell rings at 7:40am with 1st hour starting at 7:45. If a student is late, they will need to enter through the front doors, check in on the kiosk and go to 1st hour where they will be marked tardy.


Class Tardies - Per the District Handbook, if a student receives 3 tardies in a class, the student will receive a detention. We have extended our passing time this year to accommodate our students, therefore the shouldn't be any reason for students to be tardy to class ;)


Attendance

Research proves that attendance is vital and plays a pivotal role in the academic success of students.For students that are chronically absent, our CAT (Chronic Absentee Team) will be making visits to homes of students with 7 or more absences. It is state law that students are to miss no more than 9 days a semester, absences exceeding this number are reflective on the school's State Report Card and will be referred to the District Attorney. Research shows there is a direct correlation between student's attendance and academic achievement in school. We thank you in advance for helping us ensure your child's academic success.




Have a BUFFALO Day!

Water Bottles

Students may bring their own refillable, plastic water bottles to school to carry with them from class to class, especially during these high temperatures. We have water bottle filling stations located throughout the school for the students' convenience. Water is the only liquid we allow during class time and in the hallways.
