There are over 20 elementary schools alone in Ashville, NC, and surrounding areas of the county that have been affected by this catastrophic event.

With rain in the forecast for tomorrow, we just wanted to remind our families that if it is raining in the morning, the 3-5 drop off location gate will be locked and one line will form for drop off following the same procedures as our usual afternoon pickup. On inclement weather days, we will start unloading students at 6:50 am to help with traffic flow and timeliness. Please ensure your student is ready to exit your vehichle with all of their belongings. Again this is only if it is raining in the morning and afternoon dismissal procedures will remain the same. Thank you for helping us make our students safety our top priority. Have a great evening! ❤️🤘🏽Mrs. Livingston

Good morning SH Family! We will be conducting a fire drill this morning at 8:00 am. Parents will not be allowed to check in/out during this time. Please plan accordingly. Have a great day! Mrs. Livingston

Good morning! Just a reminder today is picture day 📸 All students should be in uniform dress for pictures! It’s a great day to be a Maverick! ❤️🤘🏽

STEM families, We wanted to remind you all that tomorrow, 08/27/2024, is picture day. All students should be in uniform dress for pictures. We have also been seeing many students out of dress code. A copy of the MISD elementary dress code was sent home with all students and is in the August newsletter. The dress code is enforced on our campus in accordance with the MISD Discipline Matrix. If you have any specific questions, please reach out to our office for further clarification. Thank you all for your patience and cooperation with afternoon dismissal. It has gotten quicker with each day and will continue to improve. A few ways you can help: make sure your student's car tag is visible until the student is safely in your vehicle, the school day ends at 3:20 pm, and all students should be picked up no later than 3:45 pm; ALL transportation changes (k-5) must be called into the front office or your student will be sent home via their usual route of transportation. All early check-outs and transportation changes must be completed before 2:30 pm. To ensure the safety of all students, if you do not have your student's car tag for pick-up or someone else is picking them up at the end of the day, you will be asked to come inside and present your ID. The safety of our students is of the utmost importance, and we want to ensure the same as they leave our campus to return home.

Good morning! We are excited for day 2!! Today we will have 2 drop off lines and follow our normal traffic guidelines. Please remember that all transportation changes must be called into the office not teachers. Early checkouts and transportation changes must be done by 2:30pm. We are looking forward to another wonderful day! It's a great day to be a Maverick ❤️🤘🏽

Please review the First Day of School procedures, traffic guidelines, and map regarding student drop-off and pick-up. For student safety and to minimize traffic disruptions, parents will ONLY be permitted to walk their students to class or the building on the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL. If you were not able to attend meet the teacher, you should be able to view your child’s homeroom teacher in Skyward. We will also have that information available in the cafeteria on the first day of school. If you requested additional car tags or mergers, these will be sent home with your child on the first day of school. To help our students learn and master new cafeteria expectations, lunch visitors or guests are not allowed for the first two weeks of school. Lunch visitors can begin to join us on August 26, 2024. Campus opens at 7:00 am The Tardy Bell rings at 7:31 The school day is from 7:31 to 3:21 During the first week of school, please be patient as everyone adjusts to student drop-off and pickup procedures. Our main priority is ensuring the safety of our students. Your cooperation in ensuring your student is ready to safely exit your vehicle with all of their belongings will help the line move as quickly as possible. Lines and traffic will improve after the first week of school. We are excited for a wonderful year at Sam Houston!
