Students are expected to be on time every day. Parents need to call the program to inform office of their child’s absence.
Parents will be notified in writing when their child has an excessive amount of tardies or absences, which could result in an attendance contract.
Proper behavior is required on the school bus. Bus transportation is a privilege. Students who misbehave on the bus may lose their privilege to ride. If a student loses his/her privilege to ride the bus, it is the parents’ responsibility to transport the child to school. Parents are also responsible for their child’s behavior at the bus stop.
In our program, students are working not only on academics but also on social/emotional behavior and building self-control. These are vital behaviors to ensure that they are getting the most out of each instructional day. Students are expected to follow the Henry County Code of Conduct in addition to building and classroom rules. We use a token economy program to help our students reach their academic and social/behavior goals. In the event of misbehavior, students may receive consequences such as: verbal warning, teacher conference, parent contact, and in-school or out-of-school suspension.
We follow the schedule of Henry County Public Schools during the event of inclement weather.
Student breakfast, lunch, and snack are free.
Our school colors are navy blue, gold, and white.
Our school mascot is the Owl.
