Middle School Newsletters

Fall break is the perfect time to recharge and embrace the upcoming (hopefully) changing season. Whether you're planning a staycation or heading out for a mini adventure, take a moment to enjoy the company of your loved ones. Let’s use this time to reflect and rejuvenate before diving back into our routines as we approach the wonderful holiday season!

ATTENDANCE:

Please remember that all absences must be reported through PowerSchool.

Looking ahead into the semester, please also know that we will be emphasizing our attendance policy this year; students who miss more than four sessions of any one class will be required to make up the minutes.  This is to comply with Louisiana state law.  You may hear this policy referred to as “No More Than Four” and, while there are some exceptions for school-sanctioned absences and for unavoidable absences (hospitalizations, natural disasters, etc), both reported and unreported absences count towards this limit. For more information, please refer to the handbook.
