8th grade parents

8th Grade Parents, join us for a cup of coffee with Mrs. Heasley, to talk about what to expect in the Rhetoric School in 9th grade. We will meet at 7:45 in the Upper Room on Wednesday, March 25th and April 1st. Choose a date that works for you!   Parents of students needing accommodations in 9th grade - Mrs. Heasley will have a coffee for Q&A on April 8th.

parent reminder

This is the beginning of a very busy season! If your student is missing class for any reason at all, even if it feels school-related (Rhetoric state soccer, leaving early for a golf tournament, a doctor's appointment, etc...), we ask them to get an Absentee Form from Mrs. Dow and have their teachers sign it so they can build the muscle of getting ahead of what they will be missing. We also ask a parent to sign it to confirm that all information is accurate. Thank you so much! The helps students practice the habit of responsibility, and it helps our teachers plan ahead.

absence Procedure

When you know your student will be gone (doctor's appointments, orthodontist, vacation), please have them fill out an Absentee Request Form to let their teachers know they'll be gone. This allows them to have a conversation with their teachers regarding how to make up missed classwork. These forms should be turned in to Kristen Dow 1 week prior to the absence. If you need to get a printed copy, have your student see Mrs. Dow.

For an unplanned absence, email Kristen Dow and let her know your student will not be at school. (In the case of sickness, please email her every morning that your child will be absent. If you know they will be out multiple days, let her know when you think they'll be back. This will help you avoid getting "unexcused absence" notifications.)

Reminder: To receive credit for a class, students may not be absent more than nine times in a semester.
 

Carpool Reminders

• Please review this carpool FAQ for any of your carpool questions.

• When you are dropping off your students in Logic carpool, please remind them to walk all the way down to the crosswalk on whichever side of the car they exit to cross the road.  Students may not cross in between cars before the crosswalk.  It is dangerous and slows carpool down.

Early Parent Pick up & Carpool Etiquette for 6th-8th grade

Early Pick Up: Email Kristen Dow and make sure to include the date and time. Kristen will send your child out to the pavilion or to the Administration lobby if it is cold or rainy. If it's time sensitive, please arrive a few minutes early to give us time to get your child from class. Remind your student of the time they should leave class in advance.

If your child is going home sick, they will need to sign out of the Logic building and be picked up at the nurse's station. Nurse Beckham will notify Kristen Dow of their departure. All sick students need to go through the nurse before going home. 

Logic Carpool Changes: Email Kristen Dow before 2:00 pm to ensure that the changes get noted.
