Dear Middle School Families,

We want to apologize for a scheduling issue that required us to recreate some student schedules. After reviewing and correcting the problem, we found that most student schedules did not change.

To ensure every student has the most up-to-date and accurate schedule, all middle school students will receive a new neon pink schedule during 1st period tomorrow. Schedule locators will be posted throughout the building and staff members will be present in all hallways to help students find their classes and navigate their schedules.



Thank you for your patience and understanding as we worked to resolve this issue. We also want to recognize and celebrate the many positives from our first day! We were thrilled to see such strong student attendance, smooth transitions throughout the building, and students doing an excellent job demonstrating our positive campus expectations. We are proud of our students and grateful for the support of our families as we begin what promises to be an amazing year at Bobby Joe Hill PK-8 STEAM Academy!

Sincerely,
Monica Brinkley
