SES July Information for Families - Dear SES Families, I hope you have had a great summer. It’s hard to believe that our first day of school is only 2 weeks from today. Here are a few important reminders and dates that are coming up. * Please fill out your forms in PowerSchool by Monday, July 29. This is important every new school year so we have the most updated information. If your child will not be returning this school year, please call the elementary office today at 765-282-2455. * Teacher Assignments will become live in PowerSchool on Monday, July 29 if your forms are completed. You will need to login to see this. Please call the office if you need help with your PowerSchool account. * Attendance Policy Changes - please review the updated handbook. Indiana passed a new law that came into effect on July 1 regarding chronic absences and attendance. This is on our website under SES - Student Handbook. The attendance section begins on page 7. * New Student Orientation - Any student in grades 1-5 who will be new to SES is invited to New Student Orientation on Friday, August 2 from 8:00 - 9:30 a.m. Parents should plan to attend with their children. This is optional but we hope all new students can attend.
