Standards-Based Grading: Once again this year, Standards-Based Grading will be provided in order to give students and parents a clearer, more accurate, reflection of student learning and mastery of specific skills needed for each course. This approach focuses on individual standards rather than overall grades, allowing students to understand their strengths and better identify what they need to improve and achieve. Please refer to this page on our district’s website and this Slide Deck for more information.

Safety & Game Day Policies

Unaccompanied minors: All K-8 students must be accompanied and actively supervised by a parent or a responsible adult.

Clear bag policy: For the safety of all guests, only clear bags will be permitted inside the stadium.

Online ticketing:  All tickets for Friday events must be purchased through GoFan.

Attendance Matters: Attendance = Achievement! Middle school is a key time for students to develop habits that will carry them into high school and beyond. When students attend every day, they are more likely to keep up with lessons, participate in activities, and build the confidence they need to succeed. Even a few absences can make it harder to stay on track. Thank you for partnering with us to make attendance a top priority!
