The Falcon Ladies volleyball team took home the win against Christ Church and the boys soccer team lost a hard fought game 1-0 in the final seconds to Hampton Park. Both teams played hard and showed perseverance. Great job Falcons!
The Lead Academy Choir did an outstanding job performing the National Anthem at the United Way Rally at the TD Center this morning. Check out the video on our Facebook page!
Just a reminder that students who arrive to school after 7:50 are tardy. Keep in mind that any student with 10 or more tardies is considered truant and may be required to create an attendance intervention plan. Every day students are tardy they are missing valuable crew time and instruction. Thank you to those that get here consistently on time. We realize traffic happens and life happens but please try your hardest to get to school on time each day. If we can assist in any way, please let us know. #wearecrewnotpassengers
Just a reminder that we use Jumprope Mastery Grading for our grading platform rather than Powerschool. We will send home parent logins for jumprope with progress reports next Thursday, 9/19. At that point, you will be able to login anytime you want to see progress. We wanted to make sure people were aware when logins will be sent home since we've had a few inquiries about it. Have a great day!
