Students Want to Know...How does Saturday School work?
Birney teachers who enjoy teaching Saturday School volunteer to teacher - it is usually 1-2 grade levels per groups. Class sizes are 24 to 1. Is is a mellow morning, and the teachers usually have some fun activities for students to do. There is also a nutrition break around 11:15 and some playtime too. Saturday Schools can only clear an absence or tardy already incurred. They cannot be 'banked' for a future absence. But, don't worry, there are a lot of Saturday Schools ahead. I encourage you to clear absences as you go, since you never know what lies ahead.
You do NOT need to sign-up, just show up at 9am with a water bottle and a lunch (no cafeteria on Saturdays).
Check the school calendar for Saturday School dates.
What? There's a limo ride?
Yes! We have it planned for end of May, start of June, 2023. Typically, students are eligible when they have tried really hard to maintain their perfect attendance all year long - so make sure to clear those absences regularly.
Also eligible: Attend every Saturday School! Get on the limo ride!
You miss school...You miss out! Research shows students who come to school are more successful.
We thank you ahead of time for working hard to plan your vacations, appointments, and other important events when school is not in session.
