ATTENTION JAGUAR PARENTS: If your student has 10 or more "excused / unexcused" absences, her is your gentle reminder... .................... Mom / Dad: But we had a doctor's note Ms. Jordan!!! Parent / Guardian: I wrote a note to you Ms. Jordan??? I also called, but no one answered the phone!!! Ms. Jordan: Thank you so much for the doctor's note, parent note, and the telephone call. However, the 90 Percent Rule, in addition to Compulsory Attendance laws indicates we are required to enforce the 90 Percent Rule, which states that students in grades K-12 must attend class for 90% of the time it is offered to receive full grade credit or a final grade. The 90 percent rule applies to all absences, including excused absences. If the student doesn’t meet this requirement, an attendance committee may grant the student credit or a final grade, depending on the circumstances. Becoming familiar with the school’s policies will help you manage your child’s attendance and ensure that he or she avoids too many missed school days. Please make sure your student is on time and AT SCHOOL each school day!

Please make sure your student is on time and remains at school until 3:30 pm each day. On grocery days (2nd & 4th Tuesday) parents are picking their student(s) up early from school. I am asking, "Parents if your student DOES NOT have an appointment or other emergency on grocery day afternoon, please do not pick up your student early." All instructional minutes count...... EVERY MINUTE counts and it's important for your student to continue learning through 3:30 each day. Thank you for following the early pick-up rule!

It's Grocery Day! Both our North Campus and South Campus Pantries are open today 2:00-4:00 to serve currently-enrolled families. Shopping bags are provided. No outside bags or boxes. Please honor the bag limit per household so that all families in-need are served.
