Important Car Rider Information:
Just a reminder that car riders need to stay in the line for arrival and dismissal. Families and students should not park and walk students into the building or get out of their cars in the line. Only students that are leaving early for appointments are permitted to be picked up in the office, all other students will need to be picked up in the car line during afternoon dismissal. Thank you for your cooperation in keep students safe.
Attendance:
As we are getting further into the year, families will start receiving emails and/or text communication regarding attendance. The communication sent from School Status Attend is notification of the total number of days your students has not been present at school. This communication does not indicate excused or unexcused. It is just a total number of missed days. We document excused, unexcused and doctor's notes in our system and use that to determine when or if an attendance meeting needs to be held. If you have any questions regarding your student's attendance, please contact Hendricks.
Reminders for the 2025-2026 School Year:
- If you have any changes to your student's transportation information, please contact the front office.
- Remember that students may only bring water in water bottles to be used in the classroom. Other drinks can be brought for lunch. No soda please!
- If your child will not be at school, please remember to call in to let us know so the absence can be excused. Each student gets up to 10 excused absences each year with no doctor's note. Please contact the office if you have any questions about attendance.
- If questions or concerns arise throughout the year, please do not hesitate to contact Mrs. Tilley, Mrs. Fosnight or your student's teacher. The home/school partnership is essential for the success of everyone! We thank you for your support and willingness to be our partner in your student's education!
I want to introduce Gertrude the Goose! She is the newest member of the Hendricks Office Staff! You never know what adventures Gertrude will find throughout the day or what silly outfit she will be wearing! Stay tuned for all of her amazing adventures!
