RUMOR | FACT |
Students are only getting 15 minutes to eat lunch. |
All students have a 30 minute lunch period, just as last year. The only difference is we had Jr. High coming in between groups of elementary kids to eat. This was causing problems because the elementary kids were getting mixed in with the older kids, and felt rushed to eat. The problem has been resolved by adding a seating arrangement by grade level, that allows all students to stay as long as needed to eat. |
My Jr. High kid says he/she doesn’t get enough time to leave campus for lunch. |
All students have a 30 minute lunch period. Jr. High and High School students are allowed to leave campus as soon as the lunch bell rings at their allotted time.
|
Teachers were changing grades, and that’s why the state was cracking down. |
Truth is, we were put in the IR Status due to missing an index by a few points. (The letter on homepage explains). There wasn’t any teacher that did anything wrong, we are working hard to make our students the best they can be.
|
Sending students home because of dress code violations.. |
Yes, students will be sent home for dress code violations, until the violation is fixed. We have to stay consistent in what we do. If you have any questions feel free to view the Student handbook and COC, or contact Administration.
|
School facilities are not well kept and children voice not wanting to use them. |
Our custodians work hard to keep our facilities clean, even as large as our campus is and as few of custodians as we have. This isn’t an excuse, we will be sure to address this concern. We want nothing but the best for our students. |
