Dear Parents/Guardians,
We are pleased to inform you that our school will conduct a vision screening for students on September 25, 2025. Students are screened every two years (Pre-K, K, 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, and 11th). Regular vision screenings are essential for identifying potential vision problems that may affect learning and development.
Important Reminder: If your child wears glasses, please ensure they bring them to school on the day of the screening. This will help us get the most accurate results.
If you do not wish to have your child screened, please contact your school registered nurse to complete the Opt-Out Form prior to the scheduled date.
Please contact the school office if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter!
I want to express my gratitude for your ongoing support and dedication. As we prepare for the upcoming pep rally, I’d like to share some important reminders:
Class Attendance: I have noticed that many students are absent from class during the day. Education comes first. If cheerleaders and students need to hang signs, this must be done before or after school to ensure they are present in class.
Seating Arrangements: All grades from 5th to 12th should be seated in the bleachers from left to right, while parents can sit on the floor. Chairs will be provided for parents, but space is limited. It is suggested they bring their own chairs. Homeroom teachers are expected to supervise their students in the bleachers.
Stage Policy: No students will be allowed on the stage, period. The curtains will remain closed.
Cell Phone Policy: Cellphones are not allowed during pep rallies. Failure to adhere to this rule may result in the cancellation of future events. While we want students to enjoy themselves, we must maintain a focus on our school environment. We will ensure that everyone is let out in time to report to lockers before dismissal.
We have ample room in the bleachers for all students, and your supervision is essential. Thank you once again for your support!
I hope this message finds you well.

Please continue getting students to school. If we are going to improve test scores and put Port Barre in its rightful place at the top of the district, we have to work together. Attendance is the key to success. Thank you for your support and help in being here every day. We MUST get better, and we can always improve.
Regarding safety at games, please remember that district policy prohibits tobacco, alcohol, or firearms at any time on campus grounds, including the athletic complex. Refrain from having any alcohol, tobacco products, or weapons of any sort on any school campus or athletic facilities.
We have amazing students and teachers. Let’s ensure they are at school daily so we can show up and show out for the district. I appreciate you all.
IT'S A GREAT DAY TO BE A RED DEVIL!!!
Best,
Coach Mac

Dear Students,
Please let every student know that ANYONE who scores Mastery or Advanced on ANY LEAP ASSESSMENT or a 20 on the ACT will receive a PACK THE STAND CARD for the next year. This card will grant them free entry to any Port Barre Middle/High School home event or game for the entire 2026-2027 school year. This means if they work hard and study diligently this year, they will earn a year’s worth of home games for free. Please note that this does not include playoff games. LEAP ASSESSMENTS are in APRIL, but the work begins now. Come to school, study, complete assignments, and ask for extra help to get your PACK THE STAND CARD. You can do it. Coach Mac believes in YOU!!!!
Thank you for your support in encouraging our students!
If you wear black and bring your student ID, you can get into the game for just $2.00.
Thank you for your support, and I hope to see you there!
