Authorized Use

Every student has been issued his or her own Chromebook.

The loaner Chromebooks are to be used by students whose machines are being repaired.

If you have lost or forgotten your machine, you are on your own. You are still responsible for completing the work that was assigned - you just may get to do it on paper. Welcome to 1994. It was a good year. :)

Company's Coming!

We have invited local 8th graders (from Slater and sending schools) to tour the HS, meet Lady Crews, learn about our Activities and Clubs, and see what the hype is about this Thursday morning.

Please welcome them when you see them and be who you needed when YOU were an 8th grader.

Show Time!

The Slater Theater Arts Club (STAC) will host a mini-rehearsal on Friday, March 17 at 1:30 pm. This performance is for JH and HS students only.

Your best behavior is expected. Any student who is on his/her phone or airpods, is disruptive, or who violates the handbook will be escorted to Mrs. Audsley with a referral to follow. Your job is to sit back and enjoy the show. My job is to make sure you do that. :)

Please see the flyer below for information on the community performance scheduled for Saturday, March 18 at 6:00 pm.

Handbook Highlight

Each week, I'll highlight a Student/Parent Handbook policy. What makes it into the WILDCAT ROAR is usually something that I've been dealing with and/or I'm hoping to NOT have to deal with because all of our students and adults are aware of the policy. This week's Handbook Highlight is...

Truancy: (see Board policy JEDA)
Absence from school or assigned class without the knowledge and consent of parents/guardians and /or school administration; excessive non-justifiable absences, even with the consent of parents/guardians.
1. Friday School
2. 1-3 days Transition and contact local law enforcement.
3. Referral to juvenile office, police department and/or Children’s Services, 1-3 days OSS

Shout Out

What staff member deserves a shout out?

Take a minute to let me know all about it by filling out THIS FORM.

Students, Parents, and Staff can give a shout out to any Slater Schools employee! We'll make sure they receive a copy of it and will look for ways to share them with you throughout the year as well.

Let's get to bragging about all the good people around here!

Coming Soon!

End of Course (EOC) testing will take place April 24-May 5.

It is very important for students to be in attendance during this time. Please make arrangements for appointments to be made outside of this time frame to allow for uninterrupted testing time.

Restricted

Students, please don't park on the West side of the gravel lot (facing Morgan Street/Greenhouse, Weight Room, Maintenance Shed).

We need that area for District vehicles and staff members.

Thank you!

Where'd You Go?

Students, if you're not coming back from lunch, please let Ms. Wiseman know - either before you leave for lunch, or call from where you are. Failure to do so could result in a Truancy Referral...

Due to liability concerns from MUSIC, our insurance company, pets are not permitted on school property.

Parking Spot Painting

The time has come, students!

If you earned a reserved parking spot (21-22 Students of the Month, Field Day Winners - see the list below), you're officially able to begin the painting process! See the Contract below. Printed copies are available in the HS Office.

Spoiler alert:

- There's a $25 deposit this year. You'll get it back after repainting your spot at a day and time to be determined. Materials for this will be provided by the school.

Clarification:

You don't have to be on the list to park at school/drive. These are the students who have earned reserved spots that they may choose to personalize by painting. If you don't have a reserved spot, you can park in the Gravel Lot south of the HS Building or North of the ECC, off of Morgan Street.
