Belief Statements ● We exist to serve the military child. ● We are a family of lifelong learners who respect and honor individual differences, diversity, and talents. ● We believe a safe and caring environment fosters the emotional and social well-being of students. ● We believe that every teacher is a leader; every leader is a teacher. ● We inspire our students to their highest level of learning. ● We, the school community, provide engaging, challenging, and meaningful work for learners. ● We prepare students to be leaders by instilling character, competence, and creativity.

  5. Attendance • Regular school attendance is essential for the student to make the most of his or her education. Attendance is taken at 9:30 a.m. Students that are not at school at 9:15 are counted absent for the entire day. If a student is absent part of the day as a result of a medical appointment, the absence will be marked medical when a doctor’s excuse is sent in. • If a student will be absent from school three or more consecutive days, the parents should call the teacher to make arrangements to pick up schoolwork. • Tardies- The tardy bell rings at 7:45. Please make every effort to make sure your child arrives on time. • And as Dr. Cerna says: If you’re not here, you’re not learning!
