Happy month of March, Wildcats!


The Spring brings fantastic opportunities to our students - things like Track, Scholar Bowl, FFA, FBLA, SkillsUSA (SCCC), Baseball, Senior Trip, and MORE will take students out of the classroom for a variety of events.


Students, it is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to talk to your teachers BEFORE you will be gone from the classroom to make them aware. Your makeup work is also YOUR responsibility. You need to request it from your classroom teacher before the date(s) you will be gone and follow up when you return.


I shared this expectation with HS teachers at our last Building Level meeting.

The Wildcat Sideline Scoop team wants to thank everyone who helped make this basketball season a success. The coverage of this basketball season would not be possible without the contributions of our athletes, coaches, and the administration. We also want to extend our gratitude to our dedicated staff for their hard work and commitment, as well as to our readers and supporters for following along and making our coverage meaningful.

How NOT to Park in the Gravel Lot: How NOT to Park in the Gravel Lot:

You may park in the gravel lot, or in a marked/paved parking spot off of Morgan Street. (You may have to park in front of - or even past the Early Childhood Building.)


** The parking in the gravel lot behind the Fitness Center and Maintenance building will be for LARGE /OVERSIZED TRUCKS ONLY. **


You may not park in the grass or block any other car or parking spots in the gravel.


A repeated offense will result in a referral and possible loss of parking privileges.


See me if you have questions.

The Handbook Highlight is a recap of a handbook policy or entry that our Students/Adults need to be aware of. If I'm taking the time to include it, it's something to pay attention to - either because I'm seeing that people aren't clear on it, people aren't complying with it, or I'm about to start cracking down on it.

Possession, use, sale, purchase, or distribution of any vaping device or substance on school grounds, school transportation, or at any school activity.

On September 20, I informed the HS student body that due to issues with students wearing hats in the building during the school day, hats are not to be IN the building during the school day.


Hats should be left in vehicles or lockers. They can be left in the HS office if you need a place, but if It's on a student during the day, it will be sent to the HS office...with a referral.

If you know that you won't be at school on a certain day for an appointment, meeting, etc. - besides telling your teachers (which is great!) - please let Ms. Mindy know.


You can do so by emailing her at mwiseman@slaterschools.net.


Parents can call Ms. Mindy at 660-529-2278, ext. 107.

Students learned in the first week of school that they must be in good standing to participate in extracurricular events/activities. (This includes attending those events as a spectator.)


Students must be in attendance at school for four consecutive hours on the day of the event to be able to play in or attend an extracurricular event/activity.
