We are looking forward to another successful year. Go Tigers! Chris Duncan | Principal Good Afternoon Parents,
I want to take this opportunity to welcome each of you to the 18-19 school year. As we end a great first week, I wanted to let you know about important issues beginning on Monday. As you know, our school day begins at 7am and student tardies will begin being issued on Monday. We try to give everyone the first week to acclimate to our traffic patterns. Please be aware that traffic begins to back up around 6:20am and is steady until about 7am. Please be mindful of this as you make plans to have your child in class by 7am. Today, we had our grade level meetings with all 4 grade levels and explained what would help the students have a successful year. Included, were expectations for Dress Code, Discipline, and Guidance procedures. Dress Code will be enforced beginning Monday and generally if there are questions about an outfit, please do not wear it. Please mark your calendars for Open House/Curriculum night on August 28th. It will begin promptly at 6pm in the Auditorium. If we can assist you in any way, please do not hesitate to ask. As always, Go Tigers! Chris Duncan- Principal |
