INCOMING GRADES 7 AND 8

Each new school year begins as a journey filled with promise and hope. As teachers we look forward to establishing a relationship that will ensure each student’s success. The following guidelines are intended to help promote a positive learning environment, both spiritually and academically: 

• Be prepared with the proper materials at all times.
• Attend class regularly and be punctual.  
• Complete assignments carefully and in a timely manner. 
• The focus of religion classes will be on living our faith and serving others; therefore, students will be expected to provide Christian community service each trimester.
• Students will be responsible for obtaining and completing all assigned work when absent.  Check the school’s website for daily updates.
• State law requires a written and dated excuse for all absences.
