What is Renaissance Accelerated Reader? Accelerated Reader (AR) is a computer program that helps teachers to manage and monitor children’s independent reading practice. Your child picks a book at his/her own level and reads it at his/her own pace. When finished, your child takes a short quiz on the computer - passing the quiz is an indication that your child has understood what has been read.
To access your child's portal, please click here.
AR reading Instructions, please click here.

School Start and End Times
Promptness is a trait to be developed. Parents, through their efforts and example, help instill this trait in children. Tardiness interferes with a child’s progress in school and constitutes a disturbance for all members of the class. A child is considered tardy for school if he/she is not in his/her classroom in the building when the 8:00 a.m. bell rings.
IF A CHILD COMES IN LATE, THE STUDENT AND PARENT (OR DRIVER) MUST REPORT TO THE OFFICE FOR A PASS BEFORE GOING TO THE CLASSROOM.
A student who accumulates five (5) or more unexcused tardies per quarter is considered excessive.
