Important Message about Emergency Contact Cards
Completed emergency contact cards must be submitted by Tuesday morning, September 7. Students who fail to turn them in by that date will not be allowed in class on Wednesday.
School is closed on Monday, September 6, for the Labor Day Holiday. Students have no school on Thursday, September 9, due to a teacher planning day.
Coming Soon!
Opening the day after Labor Day...our very own school store. Thanks to the generous efforts of the PTSA, the store will be open each morning from 7:30 to 7:50 am in the cafeteria, and will sell basic school supplies, including science project boards and poster boards. Thank you, PTSA!

Important Notice about After-school Supervision
All students remaining on campus after 3:45 who are not in a supervised activity will be required to attend a supervised study hall in room 1120 until their ride arrives. Someone will have to come inside the school to pick them up. No cell phones, iPods, or other electronic devices will be permitted. This is a supervised study hall. Students remaining after 5:00 pm will have to wait for their ride outside the fence.
If they do not want to attend the study hall, then they must go to the fence at 3:45 and must remain there until their ride arrives. By 3:30, all students must be in a supervised room and/or activity or waiting outside for their ride. Students are not allowed in the halls or courtyard after 3:30 unless they are with a teacher. |
Student Drop Off
Under NO circumstances should students be dropped off on the street in the front of the school. Cones will be placed on the street to prevent drop-offs. All students should be driven to the drop-off circle on the north side of the building. There will be no exceptions.
Viewing Grades and Homework
Your child's grades as well as homework assignments will be posted in the Pinnacle Internet Viewer accessed through the Parent Portal.
Miami-Dade County Public Schools provides a Parent Portal section on its website to allow parents to view student information, including schedules and grades. In order to access this portal, you must VISIT our school to obtain a Parent PIN. WE CANNOT give the PIN on the phone or to a student. You will be asked to show ID and sign a form that will be put in your student's file to show that you have obtained the PIN. You will also need your student's ID number to set up access.
We strongly recommend that you consult the user's guide, which can be downloaded from the Parent Portal, before registering. The password parameters are very specific and the registration will not be successful unless every step is carefully followed.
Policy regarding releasing students before school is dismissed:
No student is to be released from school in the last half hour of the day without authorization from the Executive Director or his designee. Student absence from class in the last half hour of the day will be counted as unexcused. Parents, please keep this in mind when scheduling appointments.
