We ask that you keep your child’s medical notes rather than turn them into the office or teacher.

If your child does not attend 50% of a school day, he/she will be marked absent. No checkouts after 2:30pm. You may find this information in your child’s agenda on p.2.

These numbers are NOT equivalent to a letter grade. We will grade your child’s papers with a 4,3,2,1. We have a 9 week academic celebration which is attained by your child meeting their Kindergarten goals set by the teachers & shared with the students and parents.

  15. All assessments are standard based assessments with the grading system of a 4, 3, 2, or 1. Parents are able to view assessments, assignments & behavioronline through our McKeelcentral website.
