What is the Dress Code at the High School?......
What is the Cell Phone Policy at the High School? ........
Check your phone in at the door of each classroom!
Any student found using a cell phone or text messaging during class time will have the cell phone taken away. The teacher will give the cell phone to the office and it will be returned ONLY to the parent in person. If the same student's phone is turned into the office a second time, the phone will only be returned to a parent and the student will receive detention.
You may use your cell phone during passing time and at lunch.
What is the Ear Buds Policy at the High School? ........
You are not to use your earbuds during class. You may use them during passing time and at lunch.
What about meals? ...... At Cashmere Middle School, breakfast and lunch are provided by our food service staff. At Cashmere High School, only lunch is provided. (If you would like breakfast, you are asked to stop at the middle school and pick up breakfast. Remember: you must do this early in the morning, as CHS classes start 10 minutes earlier than classes at CMS.)
All 9th grade students are required to stay on campus at lunch time. There is some limited seating outside. You may not hang out in the parking lot at lunch.
You may pick up an application for free/reduced meals at any school, or by clicking on this link: https://www.cashmere.wednet.edu/departments/child-nutrition-services/freereduced-meal-applications
What is lunch like at Cashmere High School?..............
There is one lunch time at the high school. Students in 9th grade are required to stay on campus. There is open campus for students in grades 10-12. Many students eat in the cafeteria, yet others join small social groups in classrooms to eat. Many club meetings are conducted at lunch time, in the club advisor's classroom - be listening to announcements to join these clubs!
What is passing time like at the high school?........
Unlike the middle school, passing times are not determined by grade level - all students are in the hall at the same time. Passing times are 10 minutes long in between 90 minute blocks, or 5 minutes in between 45 minute classes. Passing time is a great time to check in with a teacher about your schoolwork, turn paperwork in to the Career Center, or buy something from the student store.
Sometimes, 9th graders take classes with students who are in grades 10, 11, 12. Why is this?
Sometimes, an upperclassmen has transferred from another school district and needs to make up a required Core Credit (IE: Biology). More often, an elective class is open to all grades so anyone can register for it (IE: Art I). Students of all grade levels have the same expectations to pass the class.
Can I chew gum at the high school?.....
There are some classes where you will not be chewing gum for safety reasons, such as PE, Choir, Band, Nutrition Fitness and Foods, etc. In other classes, gum is allowed if you are not distracting others or littering with gum.
Do I need a locker at the high school? .... While lockers are required at middle school, they are optional at the high school. IF you want a locker, find one that is close to most of your classes and let the high school counseling office know that you are going to use that locker. You can supply your own padlock to secure your belongings.
How do I pay for things at the High School?
If you are paying for lunch at the high school - bring cash or a check to the main office and Mrs. Wood will put the money on your lunch account.
If you are paying for sports, yearbook or other fees - bring cash or a check to the ASB window and Mrs. Landes will put the money toward these costs.
If you are having difficulty paying for something, please talk to Mrs. Semanko about your concern. Also - make sure that your family has applied for free/reduced lunch, which may qualify you for other benefits!
