*Exclusion from Activities: It is our practice that suspendible incidents and other behaviors can exclude students from participating in activities- specifically the 8th grade dance. In an effort to increase our communication around this, Administration will be in contact with you and your student a week before the event (the best we can) if they will be excluded due to behavioral concerns. In general, we give students a reset/restart at the mid-term, so that incidents from the beginning of the year do not impact activities throughout the year. However, Administrators do use their discretion in determining which students will need to be excluded.

Best,
