Welcome to Byron Intermediate School

Byron Intermediate School is a learning community that supports the development of the whole child throughout their 3rd through 5th-grade years. We prioritize rigorous levels of learning that equip students to persevere, work together, evaluate information, communicate effectively, be curious, and serve others all while supporting their social-emotional well-being. It is our sincere desire to create a learning environment where students feel welcomed, cared for and respected so that they can reach their learning potential as we partner with parents and our community.

Through our implementation of a standards-based grading framework, we have aligned clear learning targets at each grade level so that our instruction, feedback and assessment more accurately measure where a student’s learning is in relation to where we want their learning to be. Learning is no longer about accumulating points to achieve a grade but rather leveraging student’s ability to understand a concept and apply it in their everyday lives.

Reporting Attendance

If your child will be absent or tardy, please call the office at 775-6620, or email Mary Benson.

Parents/Guardians of students who fail to report their child’s absence or tardy will be called at home, work, or other numbers provided.

If prior notice (note to the teacher or phone call/email to the office) is not given, a written excuse from the parent/guardian is required for absences/tardies and must be brought to the office upon returning to school, stating the date(s) and the reason for the absence.

Students arriving tardy to school (after 11:00 am), will be marked as a 1/2 day absence. If a student is absent during the school day, they are not to participate in evening activities (concerts, etc.).
Discipline/STARS Behavior

At our school, you'll see and hear the word "S.T.A.R.S." throughout the building. S.T.A.R.S represents the core character values we expect all staff and students to uphold each and every day. This acronym stands for:

SAFETY-FIRST

TEAMWORK

ALWAYS TAKE PRIDE

RESPONSIBILITY

SHOW RESPECT

We strive to be bully-free. With the use of these resources and your continued support, we can provide a safe, supportive environment for our students to learn in.
