Susie Dasher Elementary School

Greetings, STEAM Family:

We hope everyone has had a wonderful Thanksgiving Break! We are looking forward to our final month of 2024 as we near the end of our 1st semester of the 24-25 school year. Time is certainly flying by! Please check out the information below to make sure you stay in the know, and plan your schedules accordingly!

Who are we?.... (You know the rest!)

• ATTENDANCE MATTERS - Parents, please make sure your child maintains regular attendance and arrives to school in a timely manner. Students are tardy at 8:15 am. Five (5) tardies and/or early dismissals count as one (1) unexcused absence. Student attendance will be a part of criteria used to determine eligibility for school-wide celebrations. Remember, every minute really counts!

  
  
• Weekly grade level newsletters will be sent home each Monday, so please check your child's folder and/or book bag.
  
  
• All book bags must be CLEAR or MESH.
  
  
• The dress code will be enforced DAILY at SDE! Any "Dress Down" days will be communicated in advance. Repeated dress code violations will result in students becoming ineligible to participate in school-wide and/or classroom PRIDE celebrations and events! Please make sure your child adheres to the required dress code. Remember, the P in PRIDE stands for "Personal Responsibility".
