LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR

Dear CMCSS Community,

Receiving this calendar in the mail is a sign that we are about to launch a

new school year. It might surprise some to know that almost one third of

the students who start their school year with us, won¡¯t finish in the same

school. That percentage is known as our ¡°mobility rate.¡± This system excels

in its ability to offer students great transitional experiences, especially as we

continue to see more students arrive here each day. Last school year, about 650

new students joined the membership role, and we are predicting about the same

for this school year. As we continue to grow, I see us not just getting bigger, but

getting better with great opportunities for all.

In CMCSS, we are continuing to work innovatively to underscore the ¡°better¡±

for our students. In implementing a new Opportunity Culture approach,

we want to reach all students with excellent teaching, and all educators

with outstanding career opportunities. Beginning my third year to lead

the Clarksville-Montgomery County School System, I am thrilled to see so

many opportunities in motion. Please check out what is happening with our

Opportunity Culture by going to opportunity

As you turn the pages of this calendar, the faces you see are those of our newest

students. Each one unique and representative of our community, and each

one deserving of the opportunity to succeed. So, whether you are new to the

community, have lived here all your life, or something in between, I want to

wish success for each of you for the school year of 2019-20.

ATTENDANCE

The Compulsory School Attendance Law in Tennessee (TCA 49-6-3007) states

that a student who has been absent five days (this means an aggregate of

five days during the school year and not necessarily five consecutive days)

without adequate excuse is considered ¡°truant.¡± Due to changes in the TN

Compulsory School Attendance Law, students who accumulate 5 days of

unexcused absences and their parent/legal guardian will be required to have

a conference with school officials and may be referred to Juvenile Court.

CHILD NUTRITION

The following are official or adequate excuses that should be turned in to the

Attendance Secretary in the school office:

ENVIRONMENTALLY

SAFE SCHOOLS

In compliance with the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency

(EPA) Asbestos Hazard Emergency

Response Act (AHERA), public

notification of the School System¡¯s

status for asbestos containing building

material (ACBM) is required. Since the

completion of the original abatement

work in 1987, no other ACBM has been

discovered. To prevent the remaining

asbestos from being disturbed, the

school system maintains an EPA

required Asbestos Management

Plan and Asbestos Operations

and Maintenance (O&M) Plan. An

accredited AHERA inspector conducts

inspections every six months, and

required annual reports are submitted

to the Tennessee Department of

Education.

Refer any questions related to

asbestos management to the Safety

and Health Department at (931) 9207836. Additionally, pesticides are used

in the schools and on the grounds by a

licensed, certified professional.

? Parent note (up to five days excused for student illness)

? Medical note (doctor, dentist, hospital, therapist) for which the student

was the patient

? Court note for which the student was required to be in court

? Funeral notice (obituary/funeral program of a family member)

? Military deployment paperwork for military dependents

? TN Law (TCA 49-6-3019) allows the following for out of country

deployments 12 months or longer: 1 excused absence when the parent

leaves for deployment; 1 excused absence when the parent returns at

the end of deployment; up to 10 days excused absences when the

parent is home from the deployment for ¡°rest and recuperation.¡±

? Local policy also allows up to five consecutive days of excused absences

when the parent deployment is less than 12 months.

Military paperwork/documentation must be provided to the school for these

to be excused. *Please note: Out-of-school suspensions count as

unexcused absences. Our vision is to help every student earn a high school

diploma and be college and career ready. Please work with us by having your

child in school every day and providing the above described notes if your

child has to be absent.
