Dress Code

It is unfortunate that current fashion exposes so much skin. Exposed cleavage, short shorts, which includes running shorts, and pants worn low seem to compromise modesty and self respect. Spaghetti straps, backless shirts, obscene, suggestive and disrespectful words or pictures are not allowed. The standards expressed in our handbook and supported by our Board of Education, administration, and staff do not support this type of dress. When violations do occur, students will be asked to change or call home for another outfit. Please remember you are in an educational environment which warrants different dress than if you were on the track, at the mall or at the beach.

Yearbooks

Notice to parents of students no longer in attendance at Stevens,

To pick up a yearbook, we are asking you to directly contact Mrs. Kampfe via her voicemail. Here's the method:

Call the Stevens voicemail system at 394-6758
When you hear the voice prompt begin, enter 9
When asked for the mailbox number, enter 402
As soon as you hear Mrs. Kampfe't voice recording, you can leave the name of the person for whom the yearbook was purchased.

Mrs. Kampfe will bring books to the Main Office each day during 8th period for all those who have called in before 11 am that day. Books for names called in after 11 am will be delivered to the Main office on the following day. Books may also be picked up from Mrs. Kampfe in room 402 during her 8th period prep.

Dakota STEP Achievement Test

On Tuesday, March 30 and Wednesday, March 31, 2010, juniors will take the Dakota STEP Achievement Test mandated by the state of South Dakota. The Dakota STEP test is a criterion-referenced (specific subject areas) test that is based upon our South Dakota state curriculum standards in math, reading and science. Students achieve in one of four areas on the test: Advanced, Proficient, Basic and Below Basic. It is the goal of the state, the district and our school to have all of our students achieving at the Proficient Level or above. These scores determine whether or not we are meeting our No Child left Behind goals - making adequate yearly progress.

Juniors will report to the cafeteria each day at 9:00 am March 30 and 31 for a free breakfast and calculator check. Testing will begin at 9:30 am and students will be released from testing at approximately 1:00 pm. In addition to breakfast, a snack will be provided during each testing session Students will resume regularly scheduled classes on Thursday, April 1.

Students need to bring the following to the testing room:

Student ID
Calculator
Two #2 pencils with good erasers
Book or magazine to read at the conclusion of each testing session

Students arriving late will not be admitted for that testing session and will have to make up the test later. Late students may report for the next testing session and will be advised of the time to report. if students are absent during testing, they will have to make up the test at a later time.

Course Equivalency Exams (Test-0ut)

The Course Equivalency Exams (Test-out) will be held at Jefferson on June 8 and 9 from 9:00 am-11:00. The district website should be updated sometime the week of March 1st. The state has added some new courses this year, so they will be included also. That will give more opportunities for students to challenge courses.
