Schoolwide Student Expectations
Our grade level teams are committed to planning various celebrations, incentives and rewards to celebrate our student’s success, growth and accomplishments throughout the year. In order to participate in school-wide celebrations, it is an expectation that all students uphold the following expectations throughout the year. 8th grade families will be notified regularly about this scholar’s current eligibility and academic progress through monthly progress reports.
Please review the information below to better understand what requirements must be met.
