Weekly update from Tim Albertson

Advisory and Flex are a required part of the school day and attendance is expected*

As a senior and role model for other students at SHS, you are expected to:

1. Arrive on time and be an active participant.

2. Use Advisory to build community, stay informed, check in with your advisor, and address academic or personal goals.

3. Report to your assigned Flex location (advisory is the default location, if not assigned to a flex session with another faculty member) on time and remain there for the entire block.

4. Use Flex productively: meet with teachers, complete work, seek academic support, collaborate with classmates, or work independently.

5. Keep in mind that attendance of all classes/advisory/FLEX are mandatory for participation in athletics and other school related activities.

*Not having a scheduled class prior to the start of TA or FLEX, is not considered an excused absence for advisory or flex sessions.

Students are expected to ride the bus they are assigned to each day, with the exception of sporting events. If your child plans to ride a different bus, parent permission is required. An email or note to Amanda at the front desk will allow us to give your student a bus pass for that day. Amanda’s email is amanda.hatfield@lamoillesouth.org or (802) 253-7229.

All bus riders are expected to remain seated, quiet and display respectful behavior toward peers and the driver.

No sports equipment or personal items are to be left or stored in the main lobby!

The only appropriate place to store equipment or other items that do not fit in a locker, is the locker room. The locker room will be open in the morning when students arrive at school and will be locked at 8:15am each day.

Welcome Back Seniors,

Over the summer you received our summer communication with an important update that Stowe High School has transitioned away from Naviance to a platform called Maia Learning. Maia, is the college and career readiness system you will be using to prepare for life after high school.

• You'll use Maia to research colleges and universities, and to manage recommendation and transcript requests.

• You'll also use Maia to learn more about your interests and strengths, and explore college and career options.

You can only access your school based Maia account through your SHS email. We will use time in advisory and our individual meetings to get students transitioned to Maia.

You now have access to Maia Learning and can log in 2 different ways.

1. Go to your Stowe Clever Page and select the Maia Learning icon

2. Maia Learning (sign in with your Stowe High School email) Google Log in directions

Maia Learning Resources for Students

• Student Overview Video

• Sync Maia and Common App accounts ( do not select the STAR/SRAR option)

We want to start the school year by giving back to the amazing educators who give so much of themselves throughout the year. A small gesture of appreciation, whether it’s a cup of coffee or tea, a favorite chocolate treat or a snack to enjoy during a busy day can make a meaningful difference and remind our teachers that their hard work is seen and valued. Let’s come together as a school community to celebrate our teachers and give something back. Please take a look at the slots below, choose an item (or items) that work for you, and click the sign-up button to participate. Thank you for helping us make our teachers feel welcomed, supported, and appreciated as they begin another wonderful school year!
