STUDENT ABSENCES

Parents and guardians DO NOT need to call the school when their student is out. Excuse for absence is not accepted via phone.

Please complete the online “Digital Absentee Form” located on the front page of our school website under Quick Links

OR

write a note and send it with your child to turn in to their teacher upon their return.

The note should contain the dates the student was absent, their full name, and the reason they were out.

Notes for absences (whether electronic or hand written) must be received within 48 hours of your student returning to school.

MCA PM1 FAST Testing is complete at this time.



Parents see directions below on how to access your students FAST test scores.

Leaders of Character Celebrations

We are so happy to announce the return of our Leaders of Character Celebrations. This is a chance for K-5 grade level students, staff and parents to gather and celebrate students showing exceptional character. Each teacher nominates a student from their classroom in the five areas of: Academics, Growth Mindset, LEAD Behaviors, and the Character traits of the past two months (For Oct that will be Fairness and Responsibility). 

These assemblies happen 3x/school year, at the end of the first 3 Quarters and we meet in the café.

All parents of children who are getting awards will be notified by classroom teachers two weeks prior to the assemblies. If you are invited you will be asked to make sure you have completed the School Access form. This form allows people to enter the school building past the front office. You will also be directed to a link to RSVP. This allows front office staff to create visitor stickers a week before the event so that when you arrive you will not need to sign in at the computers. We RSVP simply to save time! If you are invited and have not RSVP you can still arrive the morning of your child’s celebration. You will just have to stand in line to log into our lobby computers to get a visitor sticker.

Children are not told they are receiving a certificate until their name is called the morning of the assembly. Please be sure to save the surprise for your child!

Any questions on these assemblies, please contact Mrs. Ambrose 547-3739 or Mrs. Jordan 547-3736.

Thank you so much in joining us for these fun filled events celebrating great character!
