Hello Tiger Families!
We did it! We have wrapped up our CMAS Assessments! We just have a few make-ups left to go, and then we will be completely finished. I want to take a moment to say THANK YOU to our amazing parents for supporting our efforts by donating snacks, supporting students in getting to school on time, helping us make sure iPads are charged and ready, and so much more! THANK YOU!
The end of CMAS seems to always launch us right into our end-of-year activities. Be sure to read over our weekly newsletters closely in the coming weeks as there is a lot of information about May events that will be included.
Also, parents, please take a moment to check out the Recent Updates section of our newsletter each week. This is where a lot of our information is posted.

Attendance Tips
Attend Today, Achieve Tomorrow

If you plan on leaving early for Spring Break please remember to fill out our google form ahead of time.
If your student is absent for a full day, you have 24-48 hours to call in with the reason for the absence, after that it will be marked unexcused. Per board policy, if a student is absent 10 days excused or not, absences will begin to be marked “unexcused” unless previously noted and approved by school administration or there is a doctor’s note provided to the school.
Extended Absences: Please notify the school at least 2 weeks prior to any extended absences via our Google form. You and your student will also need to sign off on our “Extended Absence Form” located in our front office. This form helps students and parents understand how to communicate with teachers and make up schoolwork after the absence.
If you know your student will be absent, tardy or checking out of school please fill out this Google form.
Please provide the school with a note from the doctor, orthodontist, dentist, therapist, or any appointment each time you go.
