Welcome Letter from Principal
Dear Sonora Middle School Families,
Welcome to the 2022-23 school year! We are deeply committed to partnering with you and making a positive difference in your child's education. Your child is important to us!
I want to first invite you to attend our Teacher Meet & Greet (Open House) on Thursday, August 11, 2022 from 4:00-6:00pm. Students can meet their teachers and visit their new pod. You can take a tour, fill out forms, and learn helpful information about the school.
The first day of school is on Monday, August 15th. Here are some important highlights to know before school starts:
- The school day now starts at 8:05am and ends at 3:30pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday.
- Wednesday is now an early release day to allow time for teachers to collaborate on teaching and learning needs. The day starts at 8:05 and ends at 2:10pm on Wednesdays. Car riders will need to be picked up at that time.
- The doors and cafeteria will open beginning at 7:30.
- The car rider line is on the east side of the building. Please do not use the front drive or the bus drive for picking up or dropping off students.
- If you need to check out your student early, please come to the front office. The latest a parent can check out a student is 3:00pm (or 1:40 on Wednesdays). For your student’s safety and security, we ask for an ID for all student checkouts. All people checking out students must be the legal guardian or on the “checkout list" from registration. To add a person to the checkout list, please come by the office.
Make sure you have updated your information through Registration Gateway. I will continue to update you on news and events through our school newsletter, social media pages, and website. Please follow our Facebook page and feel free to reach out through Messenger with questions.
We look forward to working with you and your student as we strive toward a successful school year.
Sincerely,
Chelsea Jennings
Principal
