We enjoyed seeing our Fairfax Hornets back on campus today. Here are a few reminders as we start the second semester:
- Please remember that you can upload an excuse using our online link or send it in directly with your child. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSevBF89wV1Uvzk70kCyq294H8t8aIrBLKZ4CTjhH6N3_6gi8g/viewform?usp=sf_link
- All transportation changes MUST be made in writing. Please do NOT make a change to your child's transportation after 2:00pm. We want to ensure we have time to get notice to everyone and make sure everyone goes home correctly.
- Remember that students are counted tardy if they are not in class by 7:45. We get started with high quality instruction at 8:00, so this ensures that your child has time to get unpacked and ready to begin the day without being rushed.
- Report Cards come out on Thursday.
- Cups brought to school need to only carry water. These cups also need to be cups with lids that close completely. Cups with straws sticking out are not allowed. These cause unnecessary spills throughout the buildings.
- Please review out uniform expectations from CCSD regarding shirt colors, uniform bottoms, and jackets.
We appreciate your time with helping make 2025 successful for everyone! Please feel free to reach out with any questions are concerns.
