Student of the Week!

Stratton Sanders- 11th grade

 
Stratt is a conscientious, hard-working student, who is well liked by his classmates. He budgets his time wisely and, because of this, Stratt is able to excel not only inside the classroom, but with his extracurricular activities as well.  He treats classmates, teachers, and staff with respect, and Stratt is one of the most responsible students I have ever had. Stratt strives for success in all that he does, and I thoroughly enjoy having him in my classroom!

Calico Rock School onsite 2-23-21

Pirates,

I know that everyone is wanting to return to onsite instruction as soon as possible and that is the plan.  Tuesday, February 23, 2021 our plan is to have onsite instruction but running bus routes at your bus driver's discretion.  So students, if the bus does not come by your house and you have no other way to get to school, then, you will be a virtual student for that day and your attendance will be determined by the work you turn in.

Parents, we still have the issue of the boil order at the elementary so we have purchased bottled water for the kids to drink.  If you choose, you can to send an extra bottle with your child. 

Thank you and have a great day.

Jerry Skidmore

Student of the Week!

Mylie Waire- 8th grade

Mylie is so much fun to have in class. She is a great student that always works hard and gets 
whatever she needs done in a timely manner. She is more than willing to help all the other 
students in my class if they need help and does not ever expect a thank you in return. I 
never have to remind her to stay busy because she is always doing something whether 
it is reading or doing other classwork. I have absolutely loved having Mylie in my class 
through the semester.
