————- GENERAL ————-
Winter Parking/Drop-off Reminder: At Logos West, please pull all the way forward when dropping off and picking up children in the front parking lot. We are trying to avoid cars being stuck halfway up the ramp in the ice and snow.
New Lost And Found Policy: All new items will be stored in the “NEW” section on the south side of the L&F and will remain till the coming Monday. Every Monday items from the “NEW” section will be moved to the “LONG TERM” section on the north side of the L&F. When the “LONG TERM” section becomes full items in that section only will be for sale to anyone for $5 an item. Proceeds will be donated to the high school class that is managing the L&F that month. Payment can be made to Jen Farley in the main office. Items are for sale anytime the yellow “ALL ITEMS $5” signs are hung up. If a student discovers an item, that previously belonged to them, in the possession of a fellow student the item may be purchased back for $5 from the person who bought it from the L&F. After a sale leftover items will then be taken to the Hope Center. DO NOT remove items from the L&F unless they belong to you or you have purchased them during a designated time. This constitutes stealing and will be dealt with accordingly.
The Christmas Concert will be 7:00-8:00 pm this Friday, December 9th, at the Nazarene Church. Invite your relatives and friends!

The importance of asking questions. The Logos School policy for Secondary Finals requires that teachers provide a minimum of three review sessions prior to the final exam. In order to ensure students have sufficient time to review the material, teachers are starting their reviews and providing review guides this week. However, no review or study sheet is totally comprehensive. This is why it is so important for students to use review sessions wisely by asking good questions. Please encourage your children to ask questions of their teachers.
The importance of integrity. Finals week is a time of increased stress for students. In their desire to do well, the option to take a shortcut becomes all the more tempting, especially when students fail to assess the potential consequences. This is why it is important to re-emphasize that cheating of any kind will result in a “zero” for the assignment (including a final exam) and an office visit with the principal. The resulting damage to one’s grade and, most importantly, one’s integrity is not easily repaired. Please encourage your students to resist any temptation to cheat, so that they may enjoy their Christmas break with an earned grade and a clean conscience.
