ANNOUNCEMENTS

Information is provided in many different formats.  It is the student's responsibility to listen to all announcements and read all notices.  Announcements will be read in class each day at the start of Period 3. Daily notices and weekly calendars are posted in each classroom and the main hallway.  A copy is faxed to SRVRTC.  It is the responsibility of the students to keep themselves informed.

ASSEMBLIES & CLASS MEETINGS

Students will report to their regularly scheduled class for attendance.  Upon an announcement over the P.A. system, students will be escorted by their teacher to the meeting.  Teachers will be seated with their students at all times and escort them back to class at the conclusion of the program.  Schedules may be changed periodically to eliminate repeated interruption of academic work.

CLUBS & ACTIVITIES

If any group of students wishes to form a club or activity (i.e., Science Club, intramurals, etc.), they should contact the principal, who will help interested persons understand the procedures necessary to begin the new club or activity.

FIELD TRIPS

All students going on a field trip must complete a permission form and turn it in to the advisor or teacher organizing the field trip 24 hours prior to the morning the trip.  It is the student's responsibility to follow the rules established by the chaperones and bus driver.  A Stevens High School and Claremont School District policies and procedures are in effect.  On field trips a transportation must be provided by approved School District vehicles.  The principal has the right to deny student field trip privileges for just cause.
