Weekly Update for next week!
Parents and students,
Infinite Campus Parent Portal provides avenues to student information; everything from grades to assignments to schedules. It also provides access to attendance and tardy information. According to our student handbook, MS/HS students are permitted 3 tardies/semester; students are automatically given 2 Saturday School points for any additional tardy. Upon receiving a 6th tardy the student would have earned enough Saturday School points (5+) to receive a ½ Day of Saturday School. Two additional tardies (8 total) would lead to a Full Day of Saturday School.
The handbook treats unexcused absences similarly without any permitted absences without penalty. Every unexcused absence receives 3 Saturday School points/period. If a student misses an entire day (7 periods) that is 21 Saturday School points and 3 Full Days of Saturday School.
So, if you are wondering why your child has Saturday School but hasn’t mentioned getting any points or you haven’t been contacted by a teacher for discipline issues it may be because of tardies. You can stay current on your child’s tardies and attendance by checking your Parent Portal. Please keep in mind, a student may have only been tardy once for each period (not habitual in the individual teacher’s mind) and they still could have Saturday School.
Rachel's Challenge Club is having a food drive from November 11th - 23rd. Canned food and non-perishable items can be dropped off by the office. This is open for the whole community.

Warner Monarch Community: we have made some adjustments to the November Calendar to accommodate some additional events. See the list below:
-November 18-19: No School to accommodate all students and staff that would like to attend the State B Volleyball Tournament in Rapid City. The Monarchs play their first game on Thursday November 18th at 6:00pm (MT) versus Aberdeen Christian.
-November 24: No School for students. We have changed our 1:30 dismissal day to an in-service day for staff. Staff have a couple of trainings to get completed and this was a day that could work for trainers and staff. This will also give the students an extra day for Thanksgiving Break.
Good Luck to the Monarch VB team as they battle through the remainder of the post season. Lastly, Happy Thanksgiving and enjoy the welcomed break after a busy and fast paced 1/3 of the school year.
