Second Quarter Coming to a Close
Please remember that under our new school year calendar, the second quarter of the school year will end on December 22nd. Now is a good time to check the portal, talk with your child, and communicate with teachers if necessary to be sure all your child's work is up to date. No late work will be accepted after December 22nd, and some teachers may have established earlier deadlines for second quarter work.
Please note that the portal will be closed over winter break and will reopen when Quarter 2 grades are posted in January.
We know families, students and teachers are all looking forward to a relaxing winter vacation!
Got Slime?
The newest fad sweeping our campus is the "slime" fad. Slime is a great concoction and toy that can be made with household substances, but we would ask that students keep the slime at home rather than bringing it to school. As the name suggests, it is a slimy substance that presents problems for our cleaning team. We have been making daily announcements to let students know that it is against school and district policy to buy or sell slime (and other items for profit) on school grounds, and we would appreciate it if you would remind your children as well.
