 STEM Safety Cards
 

 

Apison Families,

We are grateful to be in the groove of our normal school routines and are looking forward to a fantastic February. We’d like to communicate a few reminders for our morning car riders:

  • During morning arrival, parents who park in the parking lot must accompany their children to the front door of the school building. Parents may walk to the front interior door, but per safety protocol, may not enter the building with the exception of Baby Daycare parents.
  • Per safety protocol, parents and visitors may not enter through any other access point except the front doors.
  • Additionally, all doors are to remain locked at all times. Propping doors is prohibited.

We’d also like to remind families about Hamilton County policy regarding student illness:

Please be attentive to the following symptoms that accompany general childhood illnesses.  If your child is experiencing any of the following symptoms, you will need to keep your child at home.  In addition, if your child begins to exhibit these symptoms during the school day, you will be contacted and your child will need to be picked up from school. 

  • Fever (temperature of 100.4+ degrees)
  • Vomiting/Diarrhea
  • Undiagnosed rash
  • Contagious illness

The student must be symptom/fever-free for 24 hours before returning to school. Thank you for all you do to ensure the health and safety of all students at Apison Elementary.

Apison Library Donors

We would like to extend our warmest gratitude to the following donors. The East Hamilton High School Key Club donated $250.00 dollars which was matched by the Ooltewah-Collegedale Kiwanis, and the Gupta family for a total of $1000.00. This donation was made to the Apison School Library for the purchase of books for the students of Apison Elementary School.  We are so grateful for their generosity to support reading at our school.   
 

 

Literacy

Foundational literacy skills instruction means an evidence-based method of teaching students to read that includes phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension that enables students to develop reading skills required to meet Tennessee's academic standards.

Download the PowerSchool App

This year many of our students are attending school through remote learning, so it is essential that our families know how to access and use the PowerSchool Parent Portal. This platform houses all of the information families need to track their child's progress in school including grades, attendance, and teacher communications. The PowerSchool Parent Portal is especially helpful for HCS at Home parents because they can monitor if their child is attending virtual classes.

PowerSchool can be accessed through a computer or via mobile app. We strongly encourage families to download the PowerSchool app on their phones for quick and easy access to their child's school information. The app is available for download on Apple and Google Play.

For more information about how to sign into PowerSchool Parent Portal, visit our website.
