"The Scoop" from your 6th Grade Skyhawk Academy Director:
Dear 6th Grade Skyhawk Families,
Happy Fall! I recently came across a middle school website that listed “10 Ways to Succeed in 6th Grade,” and I thought you might like to talk about these with your 6th grader. Please keep encouraging them to S.O.A.R.!!
10 Ways to Succeed in 6th Grade
1. Come to class prepared every day.
2. Keep all your papers and materials organized.
3. Be willing to work hard and try your best.
4. Ask questions when you do not understand.
5. Don't be afraid of challenges.
6. Do your homework.
7. Do not let projects go until the last minute.. make a plan and follow it!
8. Be responsible to get any work you missed when you are absent.
9. Be respectful to yourself, your classmates, and your teachers.
10. Keep a positive attitude. Every day is a new day!

Name Badges
All students are required to wear an ID badge throughout the school day. The student's name and photo should be visible, and the ID should be worn around the neck and outside of their clothing. Students are required to wear a grade-appropriate lanyard with their ID.
ID badges are a part of the student dress code and ID badge policy.
All students have received their badges.
Students who are in violation of wearing an ID badge will be allowed to call the parent/guardian to have the badge brought to school. If a parent cannot be reached, students will need to get a temporary badge.
Students who have lost his/her badge or cannot retrieve the badge must purchase a replacement.

· 2nd Violation- Parent Notification/Compliance letter to parent
· 3rd Violation- Subject to LRSD Policy (Rule 33) Repeated violation of

If a replacement ID is needed, students will need to pay $5.00 or 150 PBIS points. Replacement lanyards or badge holders are $2.00 or 50 PBIS points. To replace the whole badge, badge holder, and lanyard is $9.00 or 250 PBIS points.
