 Frequently 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.
       Lost Agendas will be replaced at a cost of $10.00.
