Student Affairs Monthly Reports
Enrollment steady. Attendance up. Meredith Powell stated that March Madness parent night went really well with great parent and teacher involvement. LaJuana Smith said middle school is preparing for the GA Milestones. Shoe Drive went great. School met their goal and went over. PBIS plans for after milestones to celebrate and boost morale. High school having student scheduling conferences. Schedule was changed so high schoolers are eating breakfast and getting our numbers up. Working on a "smart snack" program in high school which requires students to get a breakfast to get a snack. That is helping get numbers increasing.
