for the second and third grading periods. Parent-teacher conferences are held in
the fall and spring and any other time by request of the parent and/or teacher.
Evaluation of each student’s progress is based upon his/her day-to-day achievement.
Student work habits and effort are also noted on the formal report card.
Safety Drills
Safety drills are conducted for possible emergency situations on a regular basis.
Students, staff and parent volunteers are instructed to follow procedures appropriate
for these situations. The school is in regular contact with the community safety
services that help us monitor the quality of these drills. For your well-being and the
safety of our students, if you attempt to pick your child up from school in the event of a
real emergency (e.g. fire, tornado, intruder, etc.), you will be asked to participate in the
prescribed safety drill procedures until it is deemed safe by school officials and/or local
authorities for children to be excused.
School Guards
School guards direct traffic before and after school at various locations on the school
grounds. Please follow their directions to insure a safe and orderly traffic flow.
School Rules
In order to ensure that all of our students experience a nurturing and safe environment,
we have established an umbrella of three basic expectations: Be Respectful, Be
Responsible, and Be Ready. In addition, students are expected to:
Show respect to one another at all times.
Keep hands, feet, and objects to yourself.
Follow directions the first time they are given.
Do nothing to hurt another person physically or verbally.
Walk in the hallways and to and from busses.
These rules apply at school, at school events, and while riding the transportation system
to and from school.
Consequences for misbehavior may include the following:
Conference with the student/parent
Removal of privileges
Time-out in the office
Community service (in school)
In-school suspension
Out-of-school suspension
Expulsion
