There is a large box by the water fountain that they can be placed.

o The food pantry is available ALL YEAR if a family should need it. Stop by the school or contact Michelle Shepard at shepardm@pcsb.org.

General Announcements:

When needing to pick your child up from school early for an appointment please

call ahead to the grade level offices to let the clerk know when you will be at

school. This will speed up the process especially if your child is on the PE field

and needs to come in to change clothes before leaving or during lunches.

o 6th Grade office extension 2129 o 7th Grade office extension 2133 o 8th Grade office extension 2126 o Make sure to bring in a Photo ID to check out your child. o NO PERMITS TO LEAVE WILL BE GIVEN AFTER 3:45PM EACH DAY. o ALL PARENT/TEACHER CONFERENCES ARE HELD ON TUESDAY

MORNINGS @ 8:50am.

From the Nurse: Perfumes/colognes/body sprays are not allowed in school. There are students and staff members with severe allergies and reactions to these.

o 6th Grade parents, it is not too late to get your child’s required immunizations for 7th grade! An student entering 7th grade without a Tdap immunization will not be allowed to go to classes. We are accepting the Florida Shot forms at any time to avoid delays in your child’s education.

From the Cafeteria: Please go to www.myschoolapps.com to apply online for Free and Reduced Lunches. It does take a few days for final approval. If you received the letter from Pinellas County Schools that you do not need to go online this is still true. This applies to all other families. Letters/phone calls are being sent home for students owing money via your student or mail.

There are still seats available in our YMCA program. If you are interested in this

program for your child please go to www.ymcasuncoast.org to register. They will have summer programming but your child must be registered in Summer Bridges to participate.

Extended Learning Opportunities: ELP offers credit recovery, course tutoring, assessment preparation, and remediation for participating students. Students will be able to sign up during lunches. For the schedule please click on the link provided. https://www.pcsb.org/cms/lib/FL01903687/Centricity/Domain/6390/ELP%20Schedule%20OMS%202018-19.pdf

o Morning ELP – Ensure your student is at the car circle gate at 8AM. Teachers will not wait for students that are late as they must start their tutoring session.

o After School ELP – Promptly pick-up your student at 5PM (5:10PM for STEM) in the car circle. It is essential that students be picked up on time in order to ensure students will be permitted to continue future ELP sessions.

ESE Parent Survey is underway The Florida Department of Education launched the annual Exceptional Student Education Parent Survey Feb. 1. Parents of students in Pre-K through 12th grade who receive special education services can share feedback about how well schools are partnering with them and promoting their involvement in their children’s education. Feedback helps the state and the school district improve educational services for children with special needs and their families. Please encourage parents of students who receive special education services to take the survey. The survey is available at www.esesurvey.com. A hard copy of the survey will also be sent home with students. Have questions about the survey? Contact Tracy McMannus at 727-588-6062 or MCMANNUST@pcsb.org.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!! We need volunteers for the front office and testing

proctors. Please contact Ms. Mizia at miziaa@pcsb.org to schedule time to help out. o We will be needing procotors for testing starting in April! Our 7th and 8th

grade testing is computer based and we would like additional assistance during this time. Please be aware you are not allowed to proctor during a test in which your child would be taking. If you have a 7th grader, ask to proctor during an 8th grade test!
