One Week From the First Day!
We are now just one away from the beginning of the school year! Please read below for reminders about Chromebook Pickup for Returning Students, as well as an Update on New Uniform Availability.
Dress Code
Chester Upland High School Dress Code (CHS & STEM Academy)
Students must wear Chester and/or STEM Academy gear. They may wear a hoodie, long sleeve t-shirt, short sleeve t-shirt, polo shirt, or quarter zip. Solid color tops in black, orange, gray, and white are also permissible, as well as previously obtained STEM Academy uniforms.
Pants must be black, navy blue, or tan.
All students must wear close-toed shoes.
Chester Upland School District has invested in providing two new uniform items for each student in the district at no charge to families. Students may choose a long or short sleeve T-shirt, and these items will be available for pickup at STEM during the same times as the Chromebook distribution.

Short Sleeve T-Shirt: $5.00

Sweatshirt: $20.00
All sales will be in cash. Our ability to provide exact change may be limited. Please attempt to bring small bills if possible.
Chromebook Re-Distribution for Returning Students
For returning students, Chromebook pickups will occur next week at the times indicated below:
Wednesday, August 24: 10 AM - 12 PM
Thursday, August 25: 2 PM - 4 PM
Please take note of the following regarding Chromebook re-distribution:
All students were directed to return their Chromebooks prior to Summer Break. Students who did NOT return their Chromebooks will not be provided a new/refurbished Chromebook. They will need to use their old device at the start of the school year.
Students whose Chromebooks are lost or damaged will need to pay the replacement fee ($50) in order to receive a new device.
Due to worldwide shortages, replacement chargers are not available. Students who lost chargers will need to purchase a USB-C charger on their own. They are available on Amazon, Wal-Mart and other electronics retailers.
Patience Please
