Falcon Flyer for Families!
May 5 - May 9, 2025
It's been a great week, and students worked really hard on their SCReady writing! We look forward to the week ahead and with SCReady English/Language Arts, performance events, and Teacher Appreciation Week!
The SCReady ELA portion will be on TWO days this week; Part A will be on Wednesday and Part B will be Thursday. Please make sure that your students get plenty of rest, they eat breakfast, and they arrive to school on time with a positive attitude! The tests are untimed, so students are free to take as long as they need to do their best. We can't wait to see how they do!
Please take a few minutes this week and complete the Leader in Me Parent Survey! We have had 65 families complete it, this far. Your comments will help us make decisions for next year, and your input is greatly appreciated!
Thank you to our awesome SIC and PTO this year for all of your hard work and efforts in supporting our students and staff! You are truly appreciated!
Have a great week!

Falcons SOAR!
As Falcons, we don't want to just "meet the requirement" as student-athletes. We want to raise the bar! Coming soon will be new guidelines for all student-athletes, no matter the sport. Our Falcons will SOAR, and they will show their Falcon Pride through their academic excellence and sportsmanship.
S-Sportsmanship
O-Ownership
A-Academics and Attendance
R-Represent as Role Models
Falcons will be required to hold at least a C in classes; Bs and As are preferred. Should a student drop below a C in any class, then tutoring will be required instead of practice. Students will not be penalized for attending tutoring. Students are expected to attend school and meet attendance requirements, and they should show exemplary behavior in class.
Academics, attendance and behavior will be checked weekly.
As Falcons, we believe that Academics comes first, and student-athletes are role models for all. Falcons represent Sullivan as proud, outstanding student-athletes who will be ready to meet the next level of expectations in high school and beyond.
