January Builders Theme: I am a builder when I work diligently

Doing something diligently means doing it thoroughly and well. It is the opposite of doing it shoddily.  The beginning of the year presents a great opportunity for each one of us to commit to working diligently at our school work, our jobs, our exercise program, and our goals.  Ready… set… let’s go to work!

Final Chance For Reenrollment – January 23rd and January 24th

Returning families that did not attend a celebration of excellence meeting last week, these are the required steps for reenrollment for next school year.

Names on Personal Items

Please make sure that your students’ names are on all personal items they bring from home. Winter coats, water bottles, sweaters (students take them off frequently at recess and forget them), lunchboxes, and backpacks should all have a name written on the inside tag. Every break, we clean out the lost and found and donate all unclaimed items to a charity.

Saturday School (Secondary) January 27th

There are enough students with excessive tardies that we will begin hosting Saturday school on January 27th. Mrs. Peery sent an email to parents to notify them if their student needs to attend.

Tardies – from Salem Parent/Student Handbook pg. 23-24

  1. Students who are not present and prepared at the beginning of class may be marked tardy for that class.
  2. Each class is evaluated independently.
  3. If a student accumulates a total of four or more tardies in any class, the grade for the class will be changed to NC (no credit) and will remain as NC until the student fulfills the requirements to remove the NC.
  4. The No Credit (NC) will remain as the letter grade for that class unless the student fulfills the requirements of attendance school (see Attendance School policy), or completes assigned academic work to make up for the lost academic time.

Attendance School – from Salem Parent/Student Handbook pg. 23-24

  1. Attendance school is a service provided to assist students in clearing their attendance record from excessive tardies. When a student is tardy more than four times to a class, their grade is changed to NC (no credit).
  2. Students may clear their attendance record from the NC by attending attendance school.
  3. Attendance school is typically held on Saturday mornings from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. during the second half of the term.
  4. Attendance school hours will be posted in the secondary offices and published in the newsletter.
  5. To make up each tardy, students may be required to pay a tardy fee of $5 per tardy (53G-7-501(6)(b)(vi)) and attend 30 minutes of attendance school.
  6. No students will be admitted late to attendance school.
  7. During attendance school, students must wear full uniform and must work quietly or read.
