How The Cow Drop Works:

 

As we start the second quarter, now would be a great time to ensure that volunteer hours you have earned so far this year have been recorded in our system.

Simply login to RenWeb, click Family Information, and then click the Service Hours tab. There, you can see hours on file for each family member.  And now, you can also log your hours by clicking the Add Service Hours button.

(Note: You must log in from a computer; mobile devices and apps do not display the service hour menu.)

If you have questions, please contact Delores Mead at 371-6481, ext. 200.

Christ taught us to love our neighbors as ourselves as this year's theme verse reflects in Romans 12:9-10 Don't just pretend that you love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Stand on the side of good. Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other.

 

We believe students are able to reach their full potential in an atmosphere that is physically, socially, spiritually, and emotionally safe.  That is why SCS is a fully-trained Olweus bullying prevention school.   Bullying undermines and opposes our goal of creating an atmosphere conducive to learning and recognizing the value and worth of each individual.

 

Bullying is defined as a form of aggression, different from normal conflict in that the person bullying others feels contempt for its target.  Bullying may be direct or indirect, blatant or subtle. Bullying is characterized by an imbalance of power and affect, and actions that are intentional and usually repeated.

 

Our four bullying prevention rules displayed in all classrooms are:

1. We will not bully others.  

2. We will try to help students who are bullied.  

3. We will try to include students who are left out.

4. If we know somebody is being bullied, we will tell an adult at school and an adult at home.  

 

To report bully-like behavior that you or your child have observed first hand, please use the Bullying Prevention Reporting Form.  Feel free to contact your principal with any questions.  

 

This year in lieu of the Christmas wreath sale, the PTA is doing a cookie dough sale. 

Proceeds support the PTA's fun family fellowship events and faculty and staff appreciation.

 

Cookie catalog packets recently when home with students.  Orders need to be turned in to homeroom teachers or the front office by October 31.  Cookies will be available for pickup November 21 & 22.

Has your child lost a lunchbox, sweatshirt, shoes, etc.? Items from our lost & found will be on display starting October 21. Please check the tables in the main hallway of the administration building to claim your child's items. Items unclaimed by Friday, October 25 will be donated or discarded.

Tournament was a huge success, raising over $8500 for SCS!  Proceeds help offset the difference between what tuition covers and the actual cost of educating each student. 

THANK YOU to all of the anglers who participated. Check out pictures from the tournament here.
