All students must be in dress full dress code each day to remain at school. Students are checked daily for meeting dress code at ALL grade levels. Students not in dress code must contact care givers in order to meet dress code to go to class and be counted as present and in attendance. School begins at 8:00 AM Any arrival after 8 am is considered late and students are tardy. Multiple tardies can result in additional absences and potential withdrawal. Students are missing precious instructional time for each minute they are late to school and will fall behind in those classes when they are persistently late and/or absent. Excessive tardies and absences can result in administrative withdrawal from school.

Ms. Whitaker’s 7th grade class recently finished “Red Scarf Girl: A Memoir of the Cultural Revolution.” The book focuses on the experiences of a middle school student growing up in 1960s Communist China.
Today, the students had their final book talk over “Red Scarf Girl,” and thanks to @goldenwoksatx, they got to enjoy some delicious Chinese food, too! In order to earn this treat, each student was required to complete a 5 paragraph argumentative essay over the book. Lo mein, egg rolls and cheese puffs made accomplishing this task even more satisfying!🥡✍️
A big thank you to Golden Wok for their generous donation! And a shoutout to our students for their hard work in this unit!
