Dear Students,
We want to share an important update regarding morning check-in procedures that will begin Monday, December 1.
Due to an increase in tardiness, the following policy will be in effect:
Any student arriving on campus at 7:40 a.m. or later must be checked in by a parent or guardian in the school office.
This applies even if you have your school ID.
Please remember these important times:
7:00 a.m. – The school building opens for students to enter.
7:20 a.m. – The first bell rings; students should report to class.
7:30 a.m. – Students are considered late.
Our goal is to help every student succeed. Missing instructional time means missing valuable learning opportunities, and being on time is essential for academic success.
Thank you for doing your part to arrive on time and ready to learn each day. If you have any questions, please visit the school office.
Montgomery Public Schools is proud to celebrate one of our own! 🏈
