Tuesday Folder
Each Tuesday your scholar will come home with the previous week’s graded papers.
Please look over them, sign that they were received ,and return the folder on Wednesday.
These grades are a direct reflection of imported grades.
Planners/Agendas
Agendas are another form of communication between school and home.
Inside you can note weekly expectations, spelling words, behavior log/notes etc.
Technological Devices
Scholars will be notified when to bring devices, as directed by their teacher. Devices, with wireless capabilities, are best used in the classroom. This provides a “computer lab” experience, within the classroom.
Scholars have a username and password, as provided by the district, and will have controlled access to the internet.
Uses for technology may include: Research within the content area “Games” to reinforce learning Collaborative exercises Video Streaming Possible vehicle for “Flipped Instruction”
Using technology in the classroom helps students to: prepare for the workplace, achieve academic goals, and prepare for future educational plans.
Attendance & Tardies
If your child is absent, please submit an excuse/note online (Skyward) or to the office when they return.
Your child is considered tardy after 7:30am. Three tardy passes equal an absence.
Each marking period we will celebrate scholars’ with perfect attendance.
Dress Code Black or red collared shirts (with
the Prep Crest) may be worn any day of the week, with khakis or black pants/shorts.
Spirit or college shirts may be worn, on Fridays, with jeans.
Shorts and skirts must reach knees. NO cargo shorts.
Sneakers or shoes appropriate for running, must be worn on days they have PE. No sandals or flip-flops at school.
Grading system A = 90-100 * B = 80-89 * C = 70-79 * F = Below 70
Subject: Math Subject: Social Studies Subjects: Science Subjects: Reading/Language Arts
Categories: Daily Work 50%, Tests 40%, Homework 10%
Behavior ManagementTo manage student’s behavior we have a clip and
color coded system. The color system is as follows: blue = GREAT day! green = good day, yellow = warning, red = call/note home. Student’s daily color will be noted by the teacher and may be recorded in their planner. This will determine the student’s citizenship mark each Marking Period on their report card. Reflection sheets (next slide) may be used to give scholars a moment to reconsider.
Excellent (E = no red or yellow days) Satisfactory (S = no red days) Needs Improvement (N = one or more than 1 red
day) Unsatisfactory (U = consecutive red days)
Recess Rules and Expectations

• Use entry and exit points of equipment properly.

Remind101
Remind101 is a free tool that allows teachers and administrators to quickly and safely keep in contact with their scholars/families via text message. The Professor can instantly broadcast a message to an entire list of addresses, or to a select few.
