Scott's Branch Middle High School

Dear Parents, Guardians, and Students:

As we work together for a successful school year, please remember that attendance, behavior, and following our cell phone policy all contribute to student success.

📵 Cell Phone Policy: Students are expected to follow school cell phone expectations throughout the school day. Families, please reinforce these expectations at home to help students stay focused and ready to learn.

🏫 Attendance Matters: Every day counts! The grade level with the highest attendance will earn special recognition. Encourage your student to be present, arrive on time, and stay all day!

💙💛 Behavior Matters: Our Eagles are expected to make positive choices, respect others, and help maintain a safe and productive learning environment. Disruptive and inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Together, we can make every day count at Scott’s Branch Middle High School!

Be Present. Be Respectful. Be Ready to Learn. 💙💛🦅 Your Presence Matters!

Alisha Wells, M.Ed.
Principal
Scott’s Branch Middle High School
