At Connersville Middle School, we believe that regular student attendance at school is vital for their educational success. In an effort to assist us in our attendance efforts, we have partnered with the services of School Messenger to send out notifications to parents and guardians regarding their student’s daily attendance at school. Beginning sometime this week, if your student is absent from school, and the school office has not received a phone call excusing the absence, you will receive an automated phone call informing you of your student’s absence. As a reminder, please make every effort to call the school office whenever your student needs to be absent from school. If you have any questions, please reach out to the school office at 825-1139. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

The Food Pantry will now be open every third and fourth Thursday at Little Spartans Preschool. There has been a delivery date change for Gleaners which affects our handouts.
