BOOK RENTAL FEES

The book rental fee is $60.00.  Students losing or defacing a book will be charged the replacement cost of the text.  If a student leaves the district during the school year, refunds are issued as follows:  Leaving during the first quarter – 75%; leaving during the second quarter – 50%; leaving during the third quarter – 25%; leaving during the fourth quarter – no fees refunded.

PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS

Physical examinations must be taken and the form turned in to the office or coach prior to practice and participation in sports and cheerleading (August 15th).  If students have not yet had a physical, make arrangements with your doctor.  Forms are available in the WHS office or on the Internet at www.kshsaa.org.  Alma Health Care Clinic also has forms.  Both student and parent must sign the physical form.

COMBINATION LOCKS

Combination padlocks are available to use free of charge.  Students are highly encouraged to utilize the lock for safe keeping of belongings or school equipment assigned.  The padlock must be returned in good condition at the end of the year or a replacement fee will be charged.

STUDENT INSURANCE

USD #329 Mill Creek Valley purchases a student accident insurance policy.  This insurance covers student accidents during the school day only.  The district no longer purchases additional coverage for student athletes.  Coverage for student athletes is available for purchase through the school district or may be acquired through your insurance agent.   The coverage is limited, but will coordinate benefits with your insurance.  If your child does not have health insurance, please be sure to ask for information about the state children’s health plan (HealthWave) for uninsured children. 

LOCKERS

Students are asked to keep lockers in good condition and not to apply stickers or tape to any part of the locker.  Lockers are to be kept free of clutter and inappropriate pictures.  Students are not to switch from the locker assigned to them without notifying the office.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION STUDENTS

P.E. students are required to wear shorts and a shirt in good condition, the correct size, and washed regularly.  Inappropriate or offensive T-shirts will not be allowed.

Each student should have a good pair of gym shoes to be worn only for gym class in order to maintain the gym floor and keep it in good condition.  Street shoes are not to be worn on the gym floor at any time.  Shoes that allow marks or streaks on the gym floor will not be allowed.

LUNCH/BREAKFAST POLICY

Student lunches are $2.00 per meal, which includes a carton of milk. Breakfast is $1.25.  Extra milk is $.25 per carton.  Extra servings are $.75 for lunch and $.50 for breakfast.   Ala carte breakfast items will be available also, with prices ranging from $.25 to $1.50.  Meal money should be turned in to the office before 11:00 daily.

Our school participates in the “Offer versus Serve” lunch program.  “Offer versus Serve” is a federal regulation designed to reduce food waste in the lunch program allowing students to choose only those foods that they intend to eat.  Each day the students will be offered the complete lunch including a serving of:  (1) milk; (2) bread/bread alternate; (3) meat/meat alternate; (4) fruit; & (5) vegetable.  Three servings of fruits and vegetables may be a combination of a serving of fruit and a serving of vegetables, or two different fruits, or two different vegetables.

The five food items comprise the school lunch pattern.  Under the “Offer versus Serve” program, each student must select at least three food items.  The price per meal remains the same whether the student selects the minimum three different food items or all five.
