WE HAD A GREAT FIRST WEEK BACK! WAY TO GO GOLDEN BEARS!
SOME REGISTRATIONS STILL NEED TO BE COMPLETED
Registration- We appreciate everyone who has registered their student during this first week of
registration. We still have about 60 families who have not yet done online registration for their student. It is imperative that this be done immediately. If you can't log in with your username and password, go in as a new student and register. We can take it from there on our end.

Bus Information
Please check for updated bus information as there have been some changes made.
Student Driving and Parking Lot Information
Please make sure that families do not arrive prior to 3:00 p.m. for dismissal. This should help alleviate traffic issues on Miller and McKay Streets.
All students must park in the STUDENT LOT which is on the North side of the building in front of the softball/baseball fields. Students are NOT permitted to park out in the front of the building in the horseshoe or in the back of the building in front of the tennis courts/football field.
STUDENT DRIVING Any student who drives to school must register their motorized vehicle(s) in the office and register to be a part of the random drug-testing program. Students will receive a copy of the driving regulations upon registration. Driving privileges can be revoked for attendance, disciplinary, or academic reasons.

If you would like to purchase iPad Protection you need to log onto your parent PowerSchool account and go to the student fees and select New Items then select 1:1 iPad Protection Plan 2022-2022 the cost is $25.00. You may also stop by the front office to fill out the paperwork and pay the $25.00 fee.

IMPORTANT - SCS Students Who Have Moved, We Need Documentation
Any student who has moved or moves during the school year will need to provide two pieces of documentation when making that change with the school.

Student Dress and Appearance Code
Guidelines:
1. Dress should reflect personal pride- Clothing worn by students needs to be appropriate for school and should not disrupt the learning environment. The following are examples of clothing or items that are considered to be inappropriate: Clothing that is designed to reveal students’ bare midriff, chest, back, buttocks, undergarments, or the lack of undergarments.
2. Dress should reflect respect for others- Clothing that advertises, promotes, or glorifies the use of alcohol, tobacco, illegal substances, weapons or gang affiliation is not permissible. Clothing that is demeaning to race, religion, or sex (gender identity) is not permitted. Clothing that contains writing, slogans, pictures or symbols that might cause misunderstanding, or relay vulgar suggestion is not permissible.
3. Dress should reflect pride in the school facility- Clothing that may cause damage to school property is not permitted (example: cleats on shoes; shoes with wheels; long, heavy chains; and spiked apparel).
4. Dress should respect learning environment and security of school-Winter coats, sunglasses, costumes, costume accessories, hats, bandanas, hoods and other types of headwear are not to be 17 worn in the school building. If headwear is worn to school, they will be stored in locker during the school day.
5. Dress should reflect a concern for safety- Students must wear shoes at all times. Students are not to carry book bags, cinch sacks, large purses or like items from class to class. These items are to remain in the student lockers for security and safety reasons. Purses or small satchels will be permitted in class. These items must be kept on the corner of the student’s desk, hanging from the desk’s chair, or in a teacher designated location in the classroom.
