WE ARE A NO PLACE FOR HATE SCHOOL and SCHOOL SYSTEM
If you don't have anything nice and pleasant to say to someone, keep your comments to yourself.
Please note that NO form of BULLYING will be tolerated and that both student and parent can be held accountable/liable for student actions.
ADDITIONALLY, PLEASE MONITOR YOUR CHILD SOCIAL MEDIA POSTING AND ACCOUNTS. A LOT OF WHAT WE DEAL WITH HERE AT SCHOOL STARTS FROM THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA POSTINGS THAT GO UNMONITORED.
SPORTING EVENTS EXPECTATIONS FOR ALL CLEMENTS AND NEWTON COUNTY SCHOOLS FANS AND SPECTATORS
SPORTING EVENTS EXPECTATIONS FOR ALL CLEMENTS AND NEWTON COUNTY SCHOOLS FANS AND SPECTATORS
Elementary and middle school students are welcome spectators to high school athletic events in Newton County School System, as respectful partnerships among students, staff, parents, and the community are integral to student success. Yet, we must take precautionary measures to ensure the safety and well-being of all students, which remains the district’s highest priority.
Due to the large crowds at our football games, students under the age of 14 must be accompanied by a supervising adult. Students who are not with a supervising adult will not be permitted in the stadium. Please note, that high school students are not acceptable substitutes for supervising adults. Thank you for your partnership and support.
EVERYONE MUST EXHIBIT GOOD BEHAVIOR- OR BE BANNED FROM FUTURE EVENTS OR THE CAMPUS!
Student Check Out (ATTENDANCE IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT)
SCHOLARS WHO ARE CHECKED OUT BEFORE 12:30 P.M. WILL BE COUNTED ABSENT FOR THE ENTIRE DAY. PLEASE KEEP OUR STUDENTS IN SCHOOL.
Any person checking out a student must be listed in the Parent Portal and have a valid government-issued photo ID. Please take a moment to add any adults who might need to check out your child. For safety reasons, we ask that all checkouts happen before 3:30 PM.
FTE IS TUESDAY, OCTOBER 3RD [ PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOUR SCHOLAR IS AT SCHOOL ON THIS DAY]
ALL SCHOLARS MUST BE IN SCHOOL EVERY DAY!!!
PARENT UNIVERSITY INFORMATION INFO YOU CAN USE
SRA-Corrective Reading program
SRA Corrective Reading provides intensive Direct Instruction-based reading intervention for students in Grades 3-Adult who are reading below grade level. Four levels for decoding plus four for comprehension, which address the varied reading deficits and skill levels found among older students.
Why Literacy is Important-
Students who can't read effectively fail to grasp important concepts, score poorly on tests, and ultimately, fail to meet educational milestones. Literacy skills allow students to seek out information, explore subjects in-depth, and gain a deeper understanding of the world around them.
READ, READ. READ!!!!!
Parent Connect aims to establish a strong partnership between parents and the school district, promoting effective communication, engagement, and support for students' educational journey.
