MEMORARE - May 8 for 7th, May 23 for 8th
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
******************************************************
SERENITY PRAYER - May 21 for 7th, May 29 for 8th
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him forever in the next.
Amen.

2.Second verbal warning will warrant a conduct referral.
3.After the third verbal warning the student will be invited to see the principal about their behavior.
All verbal warnings will be tracked in a binder with the reason, date, and time for the warning. Students receive a fresh start at the beginning of each day.
Students also have the opportunity to earn tickets in a separate positive reinforcement system to keep them on task and ready to work. Tickets can be earned for following the rules, modeling a Christian attitude, and being prepared for class.
HOMEWORK POLICY – All homework should be done in a timely and neatly fashion. Unless otherwise noted by the teacher all homework is due the next day. Students who fail to turn in their work will receive a zero (O) in the grade book. Their name and assignment will be turned into the homework detention teacher the following day and the student WILL complete the assignment. The student may earn up to 80% credit for the late work. A phone call will be made to the parent if the student has missed more than two assignments in a week.
Students receive one (1) free homework pass each quarter. This pass can be used for a nightly homework assignment. It may not take the place of a long term assignment, i.e. – report, math packet, Religion paper.
