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...

LIFE ACADEMY
Life Academy is a High School program designed to ensure student readiness & success in their next steps. Staff members serve as ambassadors to find experts to guide our students in various areas ranging from presentation skills to car care, legal issues, home loans, and everywhere in between. The goal of Life Academy is to expand our classroom curriculum with practical applications and chances to talk to professionals in a variety of fields.

Students must complete the following criteria to be Life Academy certified and wear Life Academy cords at Commencement:

Complete Life Academy lessons
Maintain an updated Resume and Cover Letter
Participate in a job interview (mock or real)
Finish a minimum of 12 hours of Job Shadowing (complying with SHS guidelines)
Take 'the Core Plus More' = Required Graduation credits plus two more credits in one or more core areas

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!

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.

This excludes service animals and classroom/curricular animals, pre approved by a Building Principal.

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.

Get Charged

There is a charging cart for HS Chromebooks in the HS hallway near Ms.Wiseman's office.

If your machine needs to be charged during the day, these are the locations. Do NOT unplug anyone's machine, do NOT mess with anyone else's machine, and do NOT move the carts.
