Student safety is an important component of everyday life at Sandpoint High School. I want to take this HIGH SCHOOL  opportunity to remind you of the policies and protocols Sandpoint High School follows in order to assure the safest learning environment possible for students and staff. We are very fortunate to have a School Resource Officer present at SHS acting as a prevention specialist, educating students on law MONTHLY NEWSLETTER  enforcement, and being the eyes and ears of the October 2016  school. In addition we have over fifty security cameras positioned throughout the school monitoring the daily SHS activity, a visitor sign-in protocol, an anonymous security hotline for sharing information (263-3034 ext. 4008), and an automated flashing beacon/voice lock-down warning system. Upcoming Events  Students and staff are trained on the Standard Response Protocol (SRP) in Professional Development  the following areas: Non‐Student Day  Lockout: This is called when there is a threat or hazard outside of the school October 7  building. Classes will resume as normal with the exception of no students will   be allowed outside the building until the situation is resolved. Examples include chemical spills, law enforcement situations in close proximity, wildlife Connec ons  etc. October 11    Lock- down: This is called when there is a threat or hazard inside the school *PLC Early Release  building. The automated beacon and directed voice system will be activated. October 12  Students will move to the nearest classroom or office following the protocol 1:50pm  Lock-down, lights out, out of sight.

If further movement is needed away from SHS staff will be directed to take students to the following route: Out the South parking lot driveway, down the Dover bike path, down Ontario Street to the St. Joseph’s Catholic church. Staff will take attendance again, busing and parental pickup will be staged. Though we live in a great community, we believe in being prepared at all times for any situation in which could occur. We will be conducting a lockdown drill towards the end of October. As usual we will send a Synervoice phone message before the drill as to keep parents informed. Thank You

Its a Great Day to be a Bulldog!

Derek Dickinson, M. ED October is Bullying Awareness Prevention Month. It is extremely important that we do all we can to prevent bullying in our school. Most incidents fly under the radar because they are not reported. If acts are not reported it is difficult for school personnel to take appropriate action. Below are avenues we provide students to report bullying or harassment. This can be either as a witness or as a victim. Avenues to report bullying or harassment::  Talk to parent(s) or guardian(s)  Report to a teacher, counselor or an administrator  Report to SRO Spencer Smith  Call the Anonymous Bullying Hotline 263-3034 ext. 4008 Even though bullying is a nationwide issue, it is important to know the difference between bullying, and being mean. Each are not appropriate at school, but are treated differently. Often times students characterize actions as bullying when in fact it is a situation of a student who is being mean. It is also important to note that if the situation involves two equal sides in a dispute, and mean actions exist, then it is typically not bullying. Here are some definitions of mean, and bullying according to Signe Whitson of the Huffington Post. Mean- “Purposefully saying or doing something to hurt someone’s feeling once (or maybe twice).” Usually the motivation revolves around having “angry feelings and the misguided goal of propping themselves up.” Bullying- “intentionally aggressive behavior, repeated behavior, that involves an imbalance of power.” Students who bully usually know they are being hurtful and keep doing it “with no sense of regret or remorse.” Again, both of these actions deserve intervention. The lines become blurred when things cross between being mean and bullying, but I believe it is important to know the difference as a parent due to the fact that bullying is a very serious charge included under Idaho State Law. Most cases we deal with as a school involve an isolated incident of meanness or two students involved in a dispute. Next time, your child says they are being bullied, try to determine if this is a situation involving being mean or is it bullying. Next, determine if this is truly a one way act or if it is a dispute between two students that has gotten way out of hand. In any of these cases, feel free to report situations that you feel the school can assist with.

This is mid progress #1, please log in to schoology, with your parent access code, and review your student’s progress. SHS will not be sending this progress report in the mail, unless your student is in jeopardy of failing You will receive a mid semester report card during Parent Teacher conferences November 9th and 10th. If you need assistance with logging in to schoology, with your access code, please contact Arlene at the front desk. 263-3034 ext 4004.  New

for Art Students

This year is the first year we are not charging a fee for art classes at SHS. Most of our materials are consumable, so purchasing some basic art supplies for personal use would help. Students have a cupboard for these supplies in Mr. Stafford's room. Ms. Guthrie's students should purchase a simple zippered pouch for their own materials and label each. A suggested list for supplies is located on Schoology. These materials currently exist in the art classrooms, but as time goes by, they will be consumed, sometimes lost, or forgotten.

C.A.R.E. Corner Caring Adults Recognizing Excellence @ SHS

What a great start to the school year! CARE (Caring Adults Recognizing Excellence) has been in full swing with many exciting things to report! We started the year out offering our annual free BBQ at the New Student Orientation in August. It was well attended and always a great time welcoming new families into the SHS community! With all three of our home football games already complete, we have already wrapped up our concessions at the Chuck Wagon for the season. Although we had much fewer home games to sell and fund raise, we had record sales and are well on our way to support our budget, that in return is spent on supporting our school, staff and students! Thank you so much for your patronage! One of these programs we facilitate and fund is the Get the Basics Program. We were able to purchase basic items and supplies teachers specifically requested to help in their classrooms. Along with the facilitation of our committee members, many families generously helped purchase items and donate money, and it was a huge success again this year! Thank you to all who have already donated and volunteered this year. There will be many more opportunities throughout the school year to help as little or as much as you would like. If you are not, and would like to be on the email list, please contact us at [email protected] to sign up or get more information.

SHS Mime & Masque presents

Thunder on  Sycamore Street  By Reginald Rose 

October 14 & 15, 2016  7:00pm ~ $5 general admission  Sandpoint High School Auditorium  SHS Mime & Masque presents Thunder on Sycamore Street. Sycamore Street is a peaceful street, yet there's an underlying excitement. Joseph Blake, a new man in the neighborhood, is not welcome. His neighbors have decided to force him out because he once served a brief term in prison. Also, though his daughter is a model student, the neighbors don't want their children to associate with her. They form a mob and plan to march on the Blake house. Only one man, Arthur Hayes, fights an inner battle. In a scene of tremendous power, Blake stands up to the crowd.
