STAR Logs - Again this year our school is implementing a school wide student responsibility tool. These white binders include an agenda for recording homework and tabs for organizing paperwork. Please ask your child to explain this tool daily!


Discipline Plan - We have clear expectations to maintain a learning environment.  A school wide behavior system is in place.  Each child will have a colored punch card.  There will be a store to redeem the punches for rewards.
