Why Virtual?

We know that you have many after-school commitments and responsibilities.Attendance at this event last year was far lower than expected. By offering this experience in a virtual setting, we hope to be able to reach many more families!

What to Expect

The classroom teacher(s) will connect with you, share information about the instructional program, and share ways that you can stay involved in your child's learning. There will also be time to meet our support staff, like counselors, specialists, special education teachers and administrators.

If you have questions about your child's individual learning needs, academic standing, or school behaviors, please do not hesitate to reach out to our teachers by phone or email. Together you can determine if a parent conference is necessary to support your child's growth.

• Who?: Students in Grades 1 - 5
• When?: Wednesday, Oct 9 from 4- 5 pm
• Where?: LES Gym and Bus Lot

Students are invited to attend this fun learning experience alongside a parent or guardian. The Sherriff's Office sends representatives to reinforce safety rules and engage with the children.

A permission form will be coming home with your child this week. Participants must return the signed form by Friday, Oct. 4th. The Bike Rodeo Permission Form is also linked here.

Destiny is the management system used for all SMCPS print and tech resources. This is where we check out novels, textbooks, laptops, and consumables.

This is also where fees or fines are assessed for:

1. Lost and damaged laptops and chargers
2. Lost textbooks and novels
3. Lost library books
4. Fees for instrument rentals
5. Summer Class fees

Please pay attention to your email for notices coming from the email name "Destiny: Library Checkouts and Fines".

We send out notices every few weeks just to let students know WHAT they have on their accounts, what is overdue, and what fines may have been assessed.

These notices always include CURRENT checkouts. This does not mean those items have to be returned. All students keep their laptop and charger YEAR round. They only return those when they move or graduate.

The Nutrislice Webpage has links to all SMCPS school menus for daily breakfast and lunch options.

MySchoolBucks will allow you to pay student fees and monitor cafeteria purchases from your computer or phone! You can monitor cafeteria purchases and submit funds electronically to your child's account.
