General Information
Tardies
Badges
We have also started charging for badges. If your child happens to forget their badge at home, we will allow them to call you in an attempt to have it delivered in a timely manner. If it can't be delivered, we will re-print a badge and assess a $5 fine to their account. This fine will be reflected and skyward and it will notify you via email. From there, links can be followed to pay the fine through our online store. To minimize any undue frustration, please help us by checking for badges before leaving home in the morning. As a safety measure, all staff and students are required to wear them daily. Thanks in advance!
Academic UIL
Sign-ups for academic UIL close on the 7th. We encourage all students to sign-up and tryout for teams. Those who participate will be eligible to attend a field trip at a later date. Please see the additional information below.
Fees In Skyward
Any fee that is assessed in Skyward must be taken care of before students can participate in Pirate Pride or Semester Exemptions (if they qualify). We will try to have our first Pirate Pride before the end of the grading period.
Reporting Absences
****If you are only checking your child out for a short period of time, such as a doctor's appointment, please unselect the check mark where "all day" is indicated. This will allow you to enter a specific time frame.****
