CR MS/HS Update #3: Dress Code and Handbook. There have been some changes to the dress code, mainly the allowance of sleeveless shirts with some guidelines and exceptions. Please review the points of the code with students. The code is on page 8 of the handbook--which can be found on the website or by visiting crestridge.org.

CR MS/HS Update #2: Attendance. In an effort to simplify attendance for everyone, we are switching to a points system through SIS 360. Every class period absence that isn't excused by a medical note will count as a point (a full day absence = 8pts). Students will be given 50 points a semester. Exceeding 50 points will require students to make up time--similar to before, now with 1 pt = 50 minutes of make up time. We hope this makes tracking attendance easier for all. Please reach out with questions.

CR MS/HS Parents: We will be sending you some brief informational messages to update you on any changes to policy before the year starts. Today: Cell Phones (see image for the policy). Classroom use of cell phones is largely an unwelcome distraction and students will be asked to use district-provided chromebooks for technology needs. Please support teachers by reminding students that cell phones are not a classroom right.
