Teen Safety Matters Notification and Opt-out Form:

This year, the School Counseling Department in collaboration with Mary’s Place, will be using a program called MBF Teen Safety Matters to deliver safety lessons to our students. The program is from the Monique Burr Foundation and helps keep teens safe. If you do NOT want your child to participate, please complete the opt-out form and return to the School Counseling office by Friday, August 30th, 2024 by 1:30 pm.

Please see the student handbook for more details:

Our goal is to create an environment that enhances learning and minimizes distractions. To support this, we will ensure that personal technology devices are not present in the learning space during school hours. We strongly encourage parents NOT to send students to school with cell phones, personal devices of any kind, and/or Smart Watches. Bluetooth earbuds are not permitted. Personal devices brought to school will be collected and stored until the end of the school day.

The STEM Academy @ Bartlett is a 1-to-1 iPad school. Each student is expected to bring a fully charged school issued iPad to school daily. Students will use their iPad daily in multiple classes. Only wired headphones are allowed at school.

We are thrilled to announce the release of our newly revised 2024-2025 Student Handbook! This comprehensive guide is designed to provide students and parents with all the essential information needed for a successful and enriching school year at The STEM Academy @ Bartlett.

Students and parents are expected to adhere to the guidelines in the student handbook. These guidelines have been put in place to protect the learning environment and provide a safe, structured school for all. Many adjustments were made based on feedback from parents, students, staff, and the community to ensure we are providing the best, safest, and most equitable learning experience for everyone. Some areas with major revisions are listed below:

New: Technology Guidelines/Cell Phone Policy (pages 14-15)

New: Dress Code/Student Uniforms/Non-uniform and Spirit Wear Days (page 21)

Appendix I: Cafeteria Meals/Outside Food Guidelines/Celebrations (page 24)

Appendix II: Uniform Violation Guidelines and Next Steps (page 25)

We believe these updates will further enhance the learning experience and help us maintain a positive and productive school community.

Morning drop off is 7:10 am -7:40 am. The earliest drop off time is 7:10 am. There will not be adult supervision available prior to 7:10 am. School begins promptly at 7:40 am. Students are expected to have eaten breakfast (if they chose to eat breakfast at school), be in their classrooms and ready to engage in learning by 7:40 am.

Dismissal of 6th grade, 8th grade, and carpool begins at 2:35 pm. Dismissal of 7th grade students begins at 2:45. All students will need to be picked up by 3:10 pm.

We ask that you please be patient and follow the directions of staff members and campus police to ensure car rider drop off and pick up are safe for everyone.

To assist with traffic flow, we have developed a color code system to designate car riders by grade level. Parents will be able to pick up their assigned color card at open house in the cafeteria. We ask that parents write their child's first and last name on the color card to display in your windshield during morning drop off and afternoon pick up.

6th Grade (Green)

7th Grade students whose team is on C-wing (Yellow)

7th Grade students whose team is on D-wing (Pink and Purple)

8th Grade (Blue)

Carpools (White)

Click on the link below for morning drop off and afternoon pick up directions for your color code.

Every parent/guardian should monitor his/her child's grades at least once a week. Parents can have direct access to each teacher's gradebook. Grades will begin posting after the 10th day of school and will be updated at least once per week. Student report cards will be viewable only online at the end of each quarter via Power School Parent Access.

If you had access last year at any SCCPSS school, your login information and access code remain the same. If you have never had access before, please use this link for accessing the Request for a PowerSchool Parent Access account.

Students should have access so they may monitor their own grades as well.

Important Reminder: Students may never bring medication of any type to school - no aspirin, Motrin, vitamins, prescriptions, inhalers, epi-pens, sunscreen, over-the-counter products, etc. All medication and over-the-counter products must be signed in with Nurse Jamie by a parent or guardian. A blank authorization form has been provided below.
