THE YELLOWJACKET WAY
As we continue into the second semester, help us to encourage students to follow the Yellowjacket Way behavior matrix. We want all students to be successful, and following the three principles of the Yellowjacket way will help them achieve that. A link to the full matrix can be found at the bottom of the newsletter.

CKH WORD OF THE MONTH ~ INTEGRITY
What is Integrity?
Integrity is the ability and willingness to live with honesty and excellence. People who act with integrity make a choice to do the right thing, no matter who is watching. Integrity is the foundation on which we build relationships and trust.
Why focus on Integrity?
- Integrity generates trust. When we are honest and follow through on promises, we gain the confidence of our team; Trust allows us to collaborate and achieve more together.
REMINDERS
Badge Policy
All students are required to wear their badges front and center at all times. If you do not have your badge upon arrival at school you will be asked to 1. call a parent to bring your badge from home, 2. purchase a new badge, or 3. receive consequences including d-hall. If a student chooses to remove their badge throughout the day they are subject to the same consequences as above.
Dress Code
While we encourage you to be comfortable, please remember that wearing pajamas, house shoes, and headwear is not permitted under our dress code. Be mindful of your attire choices to avoid any dress code violations.
Cell Phone
All electronic devices including cell phones and earbuds must be powered down and put in backpacks away from your person upon arrival at SMS. These devices must stay put away for the duration of the school day.
