Reminder: 8th-grade Panoramic Photo & Staff Photo on Tuesday

Good morning, Crocker,

It's that time of year when 8th graders take their panoramic pictures. It is scheduled for Tuesday, March 25, at 9:00 AM. If there is rain, we will reschedule. Those teachers who have 8th-graders during first period will bring them to the blacktop behind the lecture hall at 8:55 AM. Please have them lined up by height, as it will make it easier for sorting students. Teachers with 8th graders during second period will come to the blacktop at the start of 2nd to help supervise. Students should leave their backpacks outside of their 1st period class and pick them up before going to their next class.

Also, we will take the staff picture on Tuesday at 10:30 during morning recess. Please go to the blacktop at the start of recess. 

Thanks, Vikings,

Sports Equipment Return and Care

Good morning, Crocker,

It has come to our attention that we are missing several basketballs and volleyballs. Please make sure you return the ball you check out during recess and lunch recess. If it goes up on the roof, please let Ms. Valencia know, and she can contact the maintenance department. We will not have any sports equipment left if we don't take care of it and return it to the Sports Hut.  

Thank you for your help, Vikings,

Reminder: Gum & Candy

Good morning, Crocker,

1. Chewing gum is not allowed at school.  Its use is disruptive to instruction, a health hazard, and improper disposal creates serious custodial and health problems. Continued chewing gum on campus may result in a referral for beautification.
2. A small amount of candy, a couple of pieces for yourself, can be enjoyed at recess or lunchtime but not during class. Wrappers must be thrown away in the garbage.
3. Candy is not to be widely distributed or sold to classmates. If large amounts of candy are shared outside of class, it will be confiscated, and the student may be referred to an administrator.
4. Finally, food, including gum and candy, is not allowed on the blacktop or field, especially lollipops and gum. They are choking hazards. Eat your food at the tables before going to play on the blacktop.

Thank you for helping to keep Crocker clean and safe,

Lisa Ayer

Reminder: Dress Code

Good morning, Crocker,

When getting ready for the school day, please remember the following -
  • Some clothing is not appropriate for school and interferes with an environment conducive to learning. The following dress code applies equally to students of any gender.
  • Clothing should allow students a full range of motion — sitting, bending, reaching, and running — without requiring frequent readjustment or exposing undergarments or private parts.
  • Shirts or tops must be worn at all times and must cover the entire torso (stomach, back, and chest).
  • Clothing with disruptive or unhealthy logos or words, including offensive language, pictures, or references to alcohol or other drugs is prohibited.
  • For health and safety reasons, shoes must be worn at all times,
  • Hats, hoods, caps, and other head coverings shall not cover the face unless for religious or health purposes.
  • Hoods are not to be worn in class.
Students asked to change their attire by staff must comply immediately by changing into their gym clothes or a shirt from the office. A referral may be issued, and an administrator may be involved if a student fails to comply or if the dress code is repeatedly disregarded. 

Thank you,

Lisa Ayer
