A few changes for next year...

2015/2016 school handbook
there will be supervision provided for parents that need to drop off students early
teachers will be accessible for help before school
when needed, parent conferences, student meetings, or faculty meetings can be better served at this time
Dress code has been clarified and simplified.
A "quick reference sheet" is available that simplifies what is allowed on school uniform days.
An easy reference: If it is on the list, it is allowed or required. If it is not on the list, it is not allowed.
Our electronics policy is being adjusted to make technology "work" for school.
cell phone and mp3 policy is being clarified to make it more workable for school
we are exploring STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics program) this next year with a desire for implementation in the 2016/2017 school year.
