Middle School Newsletters

Ghosts go giggling down the street,
Tiny feet and sweatered heat
“Fall back” hour, extra snooze,
Cozy socks and comfy shoes.

Stay safe, shine bright, stick with friends,
Candy swaps and sweet amends
Treat yourself (no tricks, be dandy!)
Munch your favorite midnight candy! 🍬🕰️🧡

ATHLETIC OPPORTUNITIES:

Join us for exciting athletic events and cheer on our amazing middle school athletes alongside your family! We will continue to update the schedule as more sports and games are added.

ATTENDANCE:

Please remember that all absences must be reported through PowerSchool.

Looking ahead into the semester, please also know that we will be emphasizing our attendance policy this year; students who miss more than four sessions of any one class will be required to make up the minutes.  This is to comply with Louisiana state law.  You may hear this policy referred to as “No More Than Four” and, while there are some exceptions for school-sanctioned absences and for unavoidable absences (hospitalizations, natural disasters, etc), both reported and unreported absences count towards this limit. For more information, please refer to the handbook.
