Longhorn Ledger
January 21 - January 31
Principal Press
Greetings Longhorn Families,
We are off to a strong start to quarter 3. This past week each Assistant Principal met with their grade level students to revisit schoolwide expectations. Collaboratively with each of you, we strive to help our students learn, grow, and become good human beings. Please see the expectation refresher PowerPoint below and speak with your students about the importance of following the expectations and keeping everyone safe here at school. We especially emphasized out PBIS expectations of being Responsible, Accountable, Problem Solvers on campus. We are so fortunate to have such a supportive community!
January's resiliency skill: Honesty. Honesty involves being truthful in our words and actions. To support this at home, please refer to the attached Honesty Parent Guide for ways to discuss this important skill with your child.

Grade Level Expectations
Car Loop Procedures Reminder
There are two ways to drop off/pick up your student in the AM & PM: pulling up in the interior lane of car loop or parking in a space where students cross in the crosswalk.
CAR LOOP – AM Drop off Procedures:
Parents/Guardians should stay in the interior lane of the car loop closest to the sidewalk and pull all the way forward to the front of the car loop which is located right across from the band room. Students may only exit from the passenger side of the vehicle. Parents may not allow students to exit vehicles in the exterior lane closest to the lot spaces. This is a major safety issue. Parents may also park in the parking lot and walk their child to the crosswalk. A staff member will safely cross your child to the sidewalk. Student drop off begins at 8:50 am.
CAR LOOP – PM Pick up Procedures:
Parents/Guardians may stay in the interior lane of the car loop or park in the open spots of the parking lot. If you stay in the interior lane, you must stay in your car. Please pull all the way forward to the front of the car loop. Students will be able to board their vehicles from the passenger side in the areas designated by JLMS staff. If you park in the parking lot spaces, you must exit your vehicle to come to the crosswalk, and then we will safely cross your child at that time. Students will not be permitted to walk across the parking lot to their vehicles without being accompanied by an adult.
