Look for a schedule of summer meetups in late spring so that your child can start meeting their new friends and have familiar faces on the first day of school.
School supply and summer work assignments will be published in June.
Homeroom lists and middle school schedules will be available in August. Supply drop-off and meet the teacher day is the day before school starts. It’s your chance to bring in supplies that you have bought for the year so that your child does not have to carry as much on the first day of school. It’s also a great way to help the younger ones be comfortable with being able to find their homeroom on the first morning and meet his/her teacher.
All new students and their parents will also have an orientation by grade levels.
Report cards are issued at the end of each nine-week period. Parents are encouraged to check frequently with the teacher in order to be aware of the child’s progress. Grades 3 and under: You will receive weekly or biweekly folders of graded papers. Grades 4-8: In the event of poor grades, deficiency notices are sent home before the quarterly report card, and the grade book is live on FACTS. Formal conferences are held following the November report card, but parents and teachers are encouraged to request conferences at any time during the school year. Student-led conferences are held towards the middle of the school year and serve as the student’s time to tell you how things are going at school.
Not to be confused as a day devoted to playing the ever-popular child’s game “Tag – You’re it,” a TAG Day is nothing more than a day that students are allowed to pay $1.00 or more in exchange for the opportunity to wear non-uniform clothing. Collections for Tag Days go to a worthwhile charity, chosen by the Student Council. Watch your calendar for these designated days…however; the students are usually hip to which days are Tag Days!
