Greetings, STEAM Family!

We’ve successfully completed another productive week and are looking forward to the remaining events for August. Please check out the details below, as well as your child's grade level weekly newsletter, for what’s to come at SDE! Pay close attention to the reminder memo regarding the student dress code (check your child's book bag), as it will be enforced DAILY.

As always, should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to your child's homeroom teacher and/or our administrative team at (478) 353-8250. Let's "Level Up" with another fantastic week!

Parents/guardians, please be sure to mark your calendars for the upcoming events featured below. We're looking forward to seeing you here!

• 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.
  
  
• 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".
