We are excited to welcome back all our Patriots to the 2023-2024 school year. We hope you have had a relaxing and restful summer. We have worked this summer to make this year the best school year possible. We are looking forward to sharing all our hard work with our students and their families. I want to take this time to answer a few questions.
The doors will open at 7:20 this school year. Bell for first period will ring at 8 with a tardy bell ringing at 8:02. Parent drop offs will follow the same procedure as years past where you will drop off students at the crosswalk in front of the building. Please do not drive through the bus lane beside the building. This is a hazard for buses, cars, and most, importantly, our students. The day will end at 3:01. Walkers and parent pickup will be released at approximately 3:12.
We have new backpacks full of school supplies ordered for our students. As soon as they arrive, all students will receive one. The planners that your students will be receiving will contain the student handbook with all our rules and regulations.
As soon as the schoolwide expectations have been presented to our students, we will be sharing them with parents. These expectations discuss proper classroom, cafeteria, bathroom, assembly, and hallway behaviors as well as a review of important rules from the handbook.
We will be having a spirit day on Friday, August 25th to celebrate our first full week of school. We will be asking our students to wear a shirt color based on their grade level. Sixth grade will wear red, seventh grade will wear white, and eighth grade will wear blue.
We look forward to great year of growing and learning. Can’t wait to see our Patriots bright and early on Monday morning, August 21st.
