Here are student's from Mrs. Comerford's kindergarten class picking and enjoying some lettuce from our teaching garden.

Tardy/Early Check-out Expectations

The school will be closely monitoring tardies and early check-outs.

Students who arrive after 7:45 AM are considered tardy.

Students who must leave prior to dismissal are considered to have an early check-out..

Parents are required to sign in tardy students.

Student tardies and early check-outs will be considered unexcused for any reason, with the exception of a child that is sent home sick or a child that has a doctor's appointment, with a doctor's note.  

Parents will have up to 3 days to bring or send in notes from the doctor's office to have an unexcused tardy/early check-out excused.

Any missed classwork and tests due to unexcused tardies/early check-outs will be given a 0.

Please remember that your child is here to learn and that any missed time hurts their chances to learn the required material and impacts their future.  With this in mind try to schedule appointments after the school day ends.

We'd like to thank Gulf Power and the American Heart Association for sponsoring our teaching garden.
