School News and Information

Happy Friday!  It was awesome to see so many people here for our annual Halloween parade! Thanks for your patience as we released lots of students early Tuesday! 

We want to remind you that Tuesday November 7th is a Data Day for staff, no school for students! 

As the weather starts to get cooler, please send in a sweatshirt or coat with your child. Some grades have a recess in the morning when it is pretty chilly out still.  Please label coats with your child’s name. We have seen an increase in items in our Lost and Found. If your child is missing something, please come check out the Lost and Found. 

 

Daily Start Time

We believe that excellent attendance is vital to a successful school experience and that students learn best when they are in school, on time, and participating in the day to day activities that compromise their entire school day. We open the doors at 7:40 for students to enter the building and our day begins at 8:00. We realize at times there can be lots of traffic. Please plan for this and have your child in the building before the 8:00 a.m. bell. Students who arrive after 8:00 will be marked as tardy. Thank you for your help in ensuring a great start to the school day!

 

World Languge Program 2023-2024

The After School World Language Program will be available for students in grades 3 - 5 this school year, and the enrollment period is now open. We have partnered with a Miami University class that has developed a comprehensive curriculum for this program and are excited to offer this opportunity for our students.

ABSENCE FROM SCHOOL PROCEDURES 

Before 8:30 a.m. on the day of absence, a parent/guardian should call the Attendance line, Marshall Office at 513-273-3600, to report a student absent from school. This line is available 24 hours a day. If a parent has called the Attendance line, a written note WILL NOT be necessary. If a call has not been received, the Office will begin making home phone calls to missing students by 9:30 a.m. in compliance with the Missing Child Act.

Parents may excuse their child for a total of TEN days each school year. After TEN days of parent excuses, all absences will be considered UNEXCUSED unless supported by a doctor's note. Vacation days may be excused as part of the 10 total Parent notes.
