This is just a reminder that this Friday Aug. 26th is a short day and a free dress down day. The AM Class schedule will be from: 8:30-10:00, PM Class schedule is 11:30-1:00. Below are the guidelines for dress down Fridays:
On free dress down days, students are still expected to dress in a manner that positively impacts the learning environment. Clothing must be modest, tasteful, and it must not compromise safety standards for our students. The following standards include:
- Shorts and skirts need to be consistent with QA Uniform Policy
- No tank tops
- No baggy pants
- No bare or stocking feet
- No open toe or heeled shoes
- No clothing which displays obscene, vulgar, lewd, or sexually explicit words, messages or pictures
- No clothing that exposes bare midriffs, buttocks or undergarments
- No clothing assumed as gang related
- If questions arise, the school administration, as the Board of Directors’ designee, has the authority to determine if a student’s dress is in keeping with this policy.
Also, if you are willing to help cut items for our students at home, please drop by my classroom before class time and pick them up (this way we can give you instructions on how we would like them cut).
Parents please make sure that you take your child to the bathroom before school starts. I have had several student who need to go to the bathroom several times during class time. This creates many interruptions. I would love to keep the interruptions to a minimum.
In this warm weather, it is a good idea for your child to have a water bottle here in class. We keep our water bottles in the cubbies, and students are welcome to get a drink ANY time they want, as long as I am not right in the middle of instruction. Having a water bottle here in class will help eliminate the need for unnecessary trips down to the drinking fountain.
