Arriba-Flagler CSD #20

Good afternoon, Panther families! As we prepare for the new school year, we wanted to highlight the main changes that were made to the Student/Parent Handbook and Extracurricular Handbook for this year. Changes include updates to our Vision and Mission Statement (page 4 of Student/Parent), clarification of attendance and eligibility requirements (page 9 of Student/Parent and page 6 of EC), graduation requirements (pages 11-12 of Student/Parent), clarification of requirements for Extracurricular Awards (page 10 of EC), and the addition of music to the list of extracurricular activities. We encourage all families to review the updated handbooks before the start of school. Thank you for partnering with us to help make this a great school year!
