Mrs. Barker

Thank you for coming to Back to School Night!  It was great to have so many families in attendance! BTSN Message from Mrs. Barker(Select Link)
Please remember that attendance matters. Please arrive to school early if you plan to have breakfast in the MPR.

• Breakfast is served from 7:25 AM -7:40 AM.

• Students begin going to their classrooms at 7:40 AM

• School starts at 7:45 AM

Please strive to arrive by 7:40 AM to ensure that all students are in their classrooms by 7:45 to start their awesome day!

As we embark on a new school year, I am delighted to announce the launch of the district-wide "Every Day Matters" Attendance Campaign, an initiative aimed at emphasizing the crucial role of regular school attendance in the academic success of our students.

We firmly believe that consistent attendance plays a pivotal role in shaping the educational journey of each child. It lays the foundation for their growth, fosters a sense of responsibility, and cultivates a lifelong love for learning. By attending school every day, your child gains the essential tools to overcome challenges and seize the opportunities that lie ahead.

To support you in ensuring your child's attendance remains steadfast, we have curated a wealth of valuable resources on our “Every Day Matters” website. These resources are designed to empower you with practical tips, strategies, and inspiration to encourage your child to embrace the educational journey with enthusiasm and dedication.

Our school office is always here to lend a helping hand, so do not hesitate to reach out should you require any assistance or encounter challenges in ensuring your child's consistent attendance. We understand that life can sometimes throw unexpected hurdles our way, but with your support and our unwavering commitment to your child's success, together, we can overcome any obstacles that come our way!

Introducing the STOPit App

Reminder: Sargeant is a closed campus.  TK and Kindergarten parents may support students in the MPR for breakfast and in line at the beginning of the school day.  1st-5th grade students enter campus independently.  Please let your teacher know if your child is struggling with separation.  We will work together to provide support.

School Wide Expectations (B.A.R.K)

Take a moment to ask your child if he or she can tell you what B.A.R.K stands for at Sargeant Elementary.  We are practicing our expectations daily.  Let them tell you about how he or she is being safe, responsible, respectful, and kind at school.  They are earning Bulldog Bucks for displaying these expectations all over campus.  All staff have different colors.  When students earn the rainbow, they will receive a prize from the office!
