SAEBRS

All children in grades K-8th will be completing mySAEBRS (Social, Academic, and Emotional Behavior Risk Screener) this month. This self-reflection is part of the FASTbridge assessment suite which we have used in math and literacy for many years with great success. We know that school is about more than just academic success. To be successful in school and beyond, students also need the ability to display appropriate behaviors and skills (e.g. interpersonal skills, study skills, self-regulation, and self-awareness). Information from mySAEBRS assists us with identifying any additional supports we can provide for students either individually, in small groups, or for our building as a whole. The assessment focuses on academic, socio-emotional, and behavior skills, and is not a mental health screener. We appreciate your support as we work to support the growth of your whole child, academically, socio-emotionally and in their faith.

PE dress policy MS students (6-8)

8th graders:

 All 8th grade students are still required to dress out for PE and will be graded accordingly. Students will receive half credit for the day if they do not change clothes and have proper attire for PE.

Proper attire includes a t-shirt or sweatshirt that they did not wear to school and shorts, sweatpants, or athletic pants that they did not wear to school.

-Students will still be required to have athletic shoes for PE.  Sandals, Crocs, flip-flops, boots are all unacceptable.  Shoes must be gym appropriate

6th and 7th grade students:

-Students will still be required to have athletic shoes for PE.  Sandals, Crocs, flip-flops, boots are all unacceptable.  Shoes must be gym appropriate

-Changing clothes will be optional for the student.  While we encourage students to change, the space and time needed for this to be mandatory is not appropriate due to the class sizes.  It is recommended that students have short/sweats and a t-shirt/sweatshirt for class, however changing will not be mandatory for 6th and 7th grade students going forward.

-Students are required to be in the gym by the passing period bell.  If a student elects to change, they need to do so in a timely manner within the transition time.

As always, policy is meant to be fluid and appropriate.  We will continue to re-evaluate as the year goes on and may re-institute a mandatory policy later in the year if logistics change.

8th grade students are required to dress out everyday for PE under the handbook guidelines.

Students who do not dress out for day will receive no more than half credit for the day.
