Message from Principal Mayes
The End of the 1st 9 Weeks
Dear Warrior Nation,
As we approach the month of November, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your ongoing partnership and support and fostering and enriching education environment for our Warriors. Your involvement makes the significant difference in our school community and contributes to the success of each child.
This month, we have several important events planned that will play a crucial role in shaping your child’s educational future. These include:
✅Celebrating our students academic goals. Students will earn tickets based on the amount of growth they have seen since last school year. They will also receive a tasty treat, and each ticket that they earn for each subject will be a chance for them to participate in a future field trip!
✅A Veteran’s Day assembly to celebrate the honor and sacrifice of our veterans to our country and freedom. We are proud to be a Purple Star distinction campus.
Your Proud Principal,
Mrs. Crystal Mayes
🖤💛

HB114: NEW VAPE LEGISLATION PASSED
Vaping continues to be a challenge for all schools in the region and state. Changes in legislation last year require a MANDATORY DAEP PLACEMENT if a student:
Sells, gives, or delivers to another person or possesses or uses an e-cigarette or similar vape device per our NCISD code of conduct.
We ask you have conversations with your student about vaping and the subsequent disciplinary actions that will result if a student uses
or is in possession of a vape while on school grounds.
