Smart Watches
This is a reminder that Smart Watches are not to be used at school like a cell phone. I understand some students may have received one for Christmas. Students can wear it for "time" purposes. However, texting, calling, playing games, taking pictures, using the walkie talkie feature, etc. is not permitted. This is outlined in our student handbook and I send a letter home at the beginning of the year (beginning in 2022.)
If a student is using the watch for anything other than a regular watch, a parent will be contacted to come into school and pick the watch up.
Please see the handbook information (p.13) and the original parent letter below.
Thank you for your support and cooperation with this. It is appreciated.
Student Council Sucker and Bracelet Sale
All money raised from the sucker and bracelet sale was donated to the Asheville, North Carolina Humane Society. They were kind enough to send us a thank you note with some additional information.
Thank you so much to our student council members for running the sale. A special thanks to Mrs. Gilkerson who organized everything and advised the students.
We appreciated the support!
MAPS Parent Reports
Students completed the winter MAPS assessments in December. The parent report with your child's score will be sent home next Thursday, January 16th . Some grade levels will also have mClass assessment data. 2nd grade students will have a copy of their CoGAT scores as well.
