Weekly Update 4/5
Dear Rowe Families,
Every spring our current 6th and 7th grade students get an opportunity to forecast for their electives for the upcoming school year. Students will forecast in their Science classes the week of April 15th. They will rank all of our elective options by preference. Courses are subject to change. Staffing and scheduling will determine offerings and availability. We will make every attempt to honor their elective requests, however students are not guaranteed courses. Students will come home with their forecasting sheets to share with you.
Students interested in learning and fine tuning their basketball skills are welcome to join the open gym on Friday mornings from 8-9am in the main gym. Students are responsible for their own transportation and will have time before school starts to get ready. Any questions contact Mr. Dix or Mr. T.
Please remind your students to charge their chromebooks on Sunday night before they come to school. We will be starting the second part of our ELA testing next week.
The end of quarter 3 is fast approaching. Please make sure that you are checking your students grades on ParentVue, encourage them to be working on any missing assignments or retakes they can take. If you have specific questions please reach out to their teachers for clarification.

Did you receive a statement in the mail? Each year students are required to pay a $20 Chromebook Fee that acts like “insurance” for your student’s Chromebook. This fee helps with costs if your student’s Chromebook were to get damaged. Another charge you may see is $5 Student Activity Fee. This fee goes back to the school to help with events and item costs such as ice cream, school dances and assemblies.Certain electives have class fees: Sewing & Design, Art, Science in the Kitchen (Cooking) and Engineering. Each class has a fee of $20 each semester. To pay your statement 1. Go to our website: https://rowems. 2. Click on resources 3. Payment portal 4. Log into or create an account. Once logged in go to your “unpaid” items”

If cell phones or earbuds are visible they will be confiscated. After the 3rd time a family member will need to come pick up the phone or ear buds at school in the main office.

District dress code from district:
Responsibility for dress and grooming rests primarily with students and their parents; however, the district expects student dress and grooming to meet standards which ensure that either of the following conditions do not exist: Disruption or interference with the classroom learning environment , threat to the health and/or safety of the student concerned or of other student.
Attendance:
Tardies, and skipping can result in lunch detention. Chronic tardiness or skipping can lead to in school suspension. Refusal to go to class will result in either: lunch detention, in school suspension, or if chronic and not listening to administration the student may serve out of school suspension. Students cannot leave the classroom the first 10 minutes and the last 10 minutes of each class. The first and last 10 have critical information that students need to be successful in the classroom.
Afterschool:
Due to liability, once the school day has ended, students need to either leave campus or register for the Boys and Girls Club after school program. ROWE educators have left the building and this leaves a lack of supervision due to this, all students not in the after school program must leave the premises.
Harassment and Bullying:
Physically harming a student or damaging a student’s property.
Knowingly placing a student in reasonable fear of physical harm to the student or damage to the student’s property.
Creating a hostile educational environment, including interfering with the psychological well-being of the student, and may be based on but not limited to the protected class of the person.
“Protected class” means a group of persons distinguished, or perceived to be distinguished by race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, marital status, familial status, source of income or disability.

Words or symbols that are racially harassing are prohibited within our school environment. Prohibited symbols include, and are not limited to, the image of a noose, a Neo-Nazi swastika or the Confederate flag. Displaying racially harassing symbols to other students or staff, or where they can be viewed, such as on a bumper sticker on your car in the school parking lot, regardless of intent is disruptive to the education of other students and will not be tolerated.
