ID Policy at Northridge High School
Northridge High Schools ID policy
Students are not allowed to enter the building without their ID worn visibly around their neck or clipped to their person (upper chest/shoulder area). ID’s cannot be attached to backpacks, purses, or other belongings. Students must wear their ID at all times while on campus (in classrooms, in hallways/restrooms, and during outside activities).
IF a student does NOT have their ID when they arrive at the building, the student will need to have the ID reprinted ($5 fee) in order to gain entry to classes.
→ Parents and students are encouraged to establish routines for ensuring students have their ID when they arrive at school each day.
DRESS CODE REMINDERS
Please refer to the 2022-2023 Parent-Student (Grizzly) Handbook, page 15, for all Dress Code policies.
This is a reminder of a few of the dress code policies that are currently NOT being adhered to, and we are asking for support at home ensuring that students are dressed appropriately for school:
● Any clothing item or accessory that causes a disruption to school safety, personal safety and/or the learning environment.
● Undergarments are not to be exposed.
● Inappropriately sheer, tight or low cut clothing that bare or expose traditionally private parts of the body including, but not limited to, the stomach, buttocks, back, breasts or cleavage is not permitted.
**See the Grizzly Handbook for a complete list of Dress Code policies**
Read! Read! Read!
In order for students to see growth and more challenging reading activities, they must in a month's time perform at 75% or higher on a minimum of 4 activities. This acheivement will increase their reading levels and provide a harder challenge the following month.
We encourage all of our students to do their best while working in this program as improved reading levels allow for more success in all other content areas, help students meet their graduation requirements, and improve their chances for success in their future jobs/careers.
Free Breakfast and Lunch for District 6 Students this School Year
All students in Greeley-Evans School District 6, including students attending charter schools, can access free breakfast and lunch this school year as a result of the District 6 Board of Education’s unanimous vote on Monday, August 8, to fund school meals for the 2022-2023 school year for all students who do not otherwise qualify.
In order to eat for free, parents must complete the Free and Reduced Meal Application, regardless of the family’s income level. The application is available online at https://www.d6schoolfood.org/school-meal-benefits. If you haven’t already, please fill out this application today!
For more than two years, schools nationally have been providing free meals to all students, regardless of income status, as part of the COVID-19 response. However, federal funding for universal free meals ended at the conclusion of the 2021-2022 school year. The District 6 Board voted to allocate up to $2 million from reserves to pay for the universal meal program this school year. The remaining $10 million to fund the student meal program is covered by federal reimbursements through the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
The Board of Education voted to use money from the district’s reserves to extend free meals service for all students in anticipation that next year, the District will qualify for the Community Eligibility Provision, which will designate the district as a low-income area and allow free meals to again be provided under the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
Districts qualify for Community Eligibility Provision when they reach 40 percent of their students qualifying as low income by utilizing Medicaid services and/or qualifying for state or federal food assistance, such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Because the Medicaid qualification is just being added next year, it is anticipated District 6 will easily qualify for the federal Community Eligibility Provision for the 2023-2024 school year.
Under the COVID-19 free meal program, more students accessed school meals than ever before. For the first time, District 6 served over 3 million meals last year, realizing a 20 percent increase in students eating breakfast and a 40 percent increase in students eating
