WHAT IS MY STUDENT’S SCHEDULE?
All students will receive their class schedule on their first day of school. All students begin their first day in advisory class – see below for your child’s advisory teacher and room number (on hard copy letter).
STUDENT DAILY SCHEDULE: Students will have a daily schedule from 8:20 a.m.( 9:40 Weds.) to 3:00 p.m. Doors open for breakfast at 8:00 a.m. (9:20 Wed.) Breakfast will be served in the cafeteria. Students not eating breakfast are expected to report to the gym until the morning bell rings at 8:15 (9:35 Wed.). Hallway wandering is not permitted.
NO LOCKERS
Students will not be assigned lockers; they may carry their belongings in a backpack/bag. Backpacks/bags are to be left in locked classrooms during lunches.
CELL PHONE POLICY:
Cell phones are not allowed and are to be off and away at all times; this is state law. Failure to do so will result in a student’s phone being confiscated and kept in the office for student pick up (1st offense) or caregiver pickup (more than 1 offense). We will NOT examine the contents of anyone’s phone without permission and without the student present.
TECHNOLOGY FOR STUDENTS:
We will be able to provide each student with a Chromebook for use while at school. Classrooms are equipped with chromebook carts for students to use during class. Chromebooks will remain at AOMS.
PLEASE PRACTICE ROUTINES!
Students should now be practicing the bedtime, wake up, and no-phone/technology routines that they will have when school begins so that their bodies and minds are accustomed to this when it is time to begin learning! THANK YOU for your assistance with this.
PE UNIFORMS
Every student is required to have a PE uniform. These are available for purchase in the main office. The cost is $15 for 1 set (shirt and shorts). If you need a single item, the cost is $8.00 for a single shirt or 1 pair of shorts.
BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHT will take place the evening of Thursday, September 11th, from 6:00-7:15 PM. This will be an open house format where families will have the opportunity to visit all classrooms and teachers.
LATE START EVERY WEDNESDAY STARTING SEPTEMBER 10
Beginning the second week of school, every Wednesday, the school day begins one hour and 20 minutes later than the rest of the week, at 9:40am instead of 8:20am. On Wednesdays, all buses pick up students later than their regular time.
-PLEASE NOTE THAT SEP. 3 (8th Grade Only Day) IS NOT LATE START.
