Attendance Windows

Just a reminder, handwritten notes are accepted but you can also email Mrs. Cuevas at tcuevas@caddomillsisd.org. Absences will play a part in determining if a student is exempt from semester exams. Make sure you bring a note the day following your absence!

ALL attendance discrepancies must be addressed within these windows. Corrections will not be made outside of these windows. Be checking your attendance frequently through Skyward.

Knockout List

Just a reminder: Students with missing assignments from the previous week will receive an email Monday morning stating the assignments they're missing that have placed them on the Knockout List. Students will have Monday and Tuesday during the day to turn in these missing assignments and be cleared from the Knockout List. If they have not turned in all missing assignments by Tuesday afternoon, they'll be required to stay for Knockout School. Knockout School is every Tuesday afternoon in the Library (3:50-5:50). If students choose to miss Knockout School, they will be issued a detention.

Admin will be available during lunches on Monday and Tuesday to help clear assignments from the Knockout List. We encourage all students to communicate with their teachers and administrators prior to Knockout School to ensure they've turned in all outstanding assignments.
