7th Grade Weekly News, September 1
From the desk of Chris Howell, Assistant Principal
Dear Parents and Students,
Our 7th grade teachers and students are getting to know one another and are diving into great learning experiences. It has been great seeing our students so engaged and participating each day. Remember to contact your student's teachers with any classroom questions.
Please discuss with your student that inappropriate topics and gestures are not "funny" or "joking". This is not an excuse to say something hurtful. Please reinforce this statement.
I hope everyone has a fantastic Labor Day Weekend!

A couple key points from the slide show:
Detentions
- No longer after school
- Will be served at 7:00 am and students need to report at that time to the main office
- If a detention is not served, they will be give a Saturday detention
- Saturday detentions will be held at the high school for 2 hours
Progressive Discipline for minor behaviors
- Students can receive 3 detentions then they will be issued a Saturday Detention
- Then students can receive 3 Saturday Detentions then they will be issued In-School Suspension
- Then students can receive 3 In-School Suspensions before out of school suspensions will be issued
**This does not include major behaviors according to the hand book.
