Student Services

Library: The library is open daily from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm. A librarian and library aide are available to assist students. In the library students will find books, magazines, computers, internet access, a laser printer and copy machine. Students are responsible for returning their books on time. Library privileges may be denied to any student who does not comply with library rules.

Hall Informer: Every day in homeroom the Hall Informer is read to students. It includes valuable daily information, including information about upcoming events, lunchtime activities, and club meetings.

Lunch: Students eat by grade level in assigned areas. Seventh and eight grade eat the first fifteen minutes of lunch, fifth and sixth graders eat the last fifteen minutes. Glass bottles are not allowed at school. Students may not leave the campus during the lunch hour. A free or reduced lunch program is available to families who qualify. To determine eligibility, please contact the school office.

Lost and Found: Students losing articles of clothing, personal belongings, back packs, or lunch bags are advised to check the lost and found table. Please mark all belongings with your name for easy identification. Unmarked clothing and larger articles are kept until the end of the quarter and then turned over to a charitable agency. Unclaimed valuables and money become the property of the finder at the end of a month.

Phone Calls: Students may use the office telephone for any making calls.

Lockers: All lockers are the property of the school. They may be inspected at any time without prior notice if there is a safety concern. A locker and a combination lock are assigned to each 6th – 8th grade student. If a lock needs to be replaced because it was lost, stolen, or broken through negligence, the student must pay $8.00 for a new lock. No locks other than school issued locks may be used. Lockers are to be kept clean and in good repair. They are not to be defaced with writing, stickers, or any markings. Doors should not be slammed. Combinations should be kept secret.

Counseling: Ms. Nancy Waters, the school counselor supports students individually and in groups. Students, teachers, or parents may request the services of the counselor.

Medication: We are not allowed to give students ANY medication. If a student needs to take any prescribed medication during school hours, the school must have a written statement from both parent and doctor on file. This form is available from the office. Medication will be kept in the nurse’s office and must be labeled with the student’s name and the required dosage.

Parent Conferences: All fifth grade students have a conference in the fall and the option of a second one in the spring. Student Study Teams for 6th-8th graders are held based on parent or teacher request. Parent requests should be made to the school counselor.
