Clairmont Bulldog Families,
Thank you to all of the parents/guardians/families who attended our Back to School Night on Thursday. We had a decent turn out and look forward to continuing to partner with you in your child's education. As a reminder, attendance is very important, your students need to be at school on time and remain at school for the duration of the school day!
- Remember that Clairmont Elementary continues to be a uniform school. The uniform policy can be found on our website and in your students planner. Many retail stores have uniform clothing at a discount for back to school including Walmart, Target, and Old Navy for as low as $5.00. We understand that finances may be a factor, if so, please contact the office as we have some available for students.
- Students should arrive to school no earlier than 7:30am if they are eating breakfast. If they are not eating breakfast, they should arrive at 7:45am.
Best,
Ms. Shorter
