Based on the first full week of school, it appears that some of our middle school and high school students may not be aware our school has a dress code that may not coincide with what they would like to wear to school. The typical process for addressing a student with a dress code issue will be speaking with them to ensure they understand the dress code. The second incident will be the opportunity to find something to wear that follows the dress code. This may include sending them home. A third incident will result in a one-day school suspension. Please contact Mr. Watson if you have any questions. will your student be away? use safearrival!Parents and Guardians, The best way to report an absence is to use the SafeArrival/School Messenger App. Please follow the link below to find out more.
