MS/HS Bulletin December 6, 2013


Middle School Students
  • If you are on the ineligibility list, policy states you MUST stay after school until 4:00 pm every day (except Wednesday) until your grades are again passing.  If you are unable to attend, your parent must schedule a meeting with the teachers and the principal so that an academic plan may be completed.  Failure to comply with these guidelines, without parent notification and principal approval, may result in suspension.
  • If you name appears on the list, you will report to teacher on duty's classroom (see list below) to work until 4:00.  You will report there every day Monday-Thursday.  If you cannot meet on one of those days you will report to the office on Friday from 3:30-4:00 to work.  Remember, once your grades are passing you will no longer be required to stay.
  • Should you skip a night without making arrangements with the teacher on duty, you will be assigned a detention of one hour to be served in the office. 
  • Teacher-on-duty December 9th-13th is Mr. Hawkins.
