Uur PBIS focus for the month of October is on Hallway Expectations! We encourage all students to be mindful of the following: make sure you're getting to class on time, keeping the hallways clean by throwing away trash and food wrappers, walking calmly—no running—and showing safe and respectful behavior. Let’s work together to create a positive and orderly environment in our school!

Please see the attached document for an overview of some keys policies pertaining to cellphones, headphones, earbuds, hats, hoodies and backpacks. We will review these policies with students during our grade level assemblies.
