As the school year progresses, I want to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for your incredible involvement in your child's education. Your partnership is so important, and it's clear from the energy and enthusiasm we see every day that your support at home makes a huge difference.
Thank you for being so dedicated—from attending parent conferences, attending school events, and communicating with our teachers. Your commitment doesn't go unnoticed, and we are so proud to partner with you!
Have a great weekend!

What Are Your Child's Grades?
Did you know that you are able to see your child's grades as soon as it is entered into the gradebook by the teacher? It is so important that you are able to see this along the way in order for your child to succeed. Download the PowerSchool App today to receive grade notifications!

Attendance Reminders
Tardy - To be considered on time, the child must be sitting in their classroom at 7:45am. At 7:45am, our front door locks. The parent/guardian/driver will be expected to park their car and sign their child in at this point. Officer Hodges, our School Resource Officer, will be there to remind whoever is dropping off your child. Our instruction begins at 7:45am, so being late for school results in loss of instruction.
Early Dismissal - Students will not be allowed to be dismissed between 2:00-2:30pm for Early Dismissal. Please plan to pick your child up before then, if you have a doctor's appointment. Repeated Early Dismissals could result in an Attendance Plan.
Absences - It is imperative that your child is at school. We have a new system, and will be monitoring attendance very closely. You are allowed to turn in up to 5 Parent Notes to cover an unexcused absence. An example of a Parent Note would be a low grade fever, throwing up, etc. If you take your child to the doctor, please be sure to turn in the medical note. A student is considered truant with 3 consecutive absences or 5 unlawful absences. At this point, an Attendance Meeting will be scheduled with the Parent/Guardian and administration to create an Attendance Plan. Continued truancy will result in turning the plan over to the Anderson County Board.
