Asked Questions
What's an AGENDA?
An Agenda is the student
handbook/planner which is given to every SHS student. You can find the
rules for student conduct, dress code regulations, and the school policies
which apply to all SHS students. The planners also provide monthly
and weekly calendars so students can enter homework assignments and class
information. In addition, each Agenda has various quick reference
information which should prove to be very helpful with homework, setting
goals, and organizing information.
It
is essential that a student have his Agenda with him at all times.
This Agenda contains a student's absentee record (excused or unexcused)
and hall passes to be used when necessary. Parents are urged to regularly
review the Agenda and to use the Agenda as a means to communicate with
teachers.
