May 2013
It is May, the month whose flowers were brought by April’s showers. The
month of Advanced Placement Exams (AP’s), the last day of school for seniors, the 5K race at Dulaney, Senior Prom, Grad Gala and Graduation. It is an
exciting time for our students, but also a bittersweet time. As the mom of a
senior (my youngest child) it is the end of my time as being a Dulaney parent.
Come June, I will be the mom of Dulaney alumni. After six years at Dulaney
it will feel very strange to not be a parent of a high school student. My years
at Dulaney have been wonderful. I love the school and my children received
a wonderful education here. Being a part of the PTSA enabled me to form
relationships and friendships with many parents and staff. I was able to
voice my opinions and concerns and be aware of much of the news around
the school and the district. The opportunity to have been a part of my children’s high school years at Dulaney is priceless. These days and years are
gone forever and I know I made the most of them.

Prom is just a few short weeks away. Prom has been the dream of many of
our children, and us during our high school years of this perfect night celebrating our senior year. But, with prom night comes many risks and worries.
Some suggestions for parents:

Make sure you know the complete plan for the evening, including locations where your child will go and what time you expect him or her
home. There’s nothing wrong with asking what restaurant, other home
or location he or she will visit during the evening. That’s the obligation of
parents and teens may appreciate it, even as they roll their eyes.

Have contact information for other parents involved in your teen’s memorable night. If there is any issue, phone numbers and street addresses
are invaluable.

Be there when your teen leaves and don’t go to sleep until you know he
or she is home safely. Let teens know you’ll be willing to talk or come get
them anytime they may want to call.


If you haven’t had conversations about sex, alcohol and drugs, muster up
your parenting responsibilities and talk candidly. Prom night generates
peer pressure to push boundaries so discuss limits and repercussions.

Don’t talk down to your teen or lecture with scare tactics. A better approach is, “I know you already know this, but I want you to be safe and
have fun, so…”

Assure your son or daughter it’s okay for them to call you if they feel uncomfortable in any situation and want to come home. You may want to
develop a code word so a teen doesn’t have to say, “My driver is drinking
– come get me.”

Getting to and from the prom is always a concern, particularly because teens
may be distracted and many vehicle accidents are on weekends, when more
alcohol-impaired drivers may be on the road. Teens may also be inexperienced drivers, or may be riding with a peer with limited driving experience.

The PTSA sponsors Grad Gala, the post prom party. This event is free to all
seniors and their guests. The Grad Gala committee has worked very hard all
year to ensure a fun and safe place for our seniors to go after prom. But,
some students may still encounter danger so please talk to children.
If you have not volunteered to help out at Grad Gala, please do so. 150 volunteers are needed to run the event. For parents of younger children, this is
a great way to see what Grad Gala is all about. Parents of juniors: we need
parents to begin planning for the Class of 2014 soon. The Grad Gala is run
completely by parents. Please volunteer, it will help prepare you for your
child’s senior year. It is so important to make the most of these high school
years!

From the Principal...
Lyn Whitlock, Principal
It is Spring—the season of testing! Our seniors are working to complete a very short grading period
and prepare for graduation. Many will be taking Advanced Placement Exams during the first two
weeks of May and then directly (actually some overlap) into final exams for all seniors. Juniors have
just completed the first total-school SAT Day successfully. We are excited to receive the scores soon
and help students prepare for their senior year. Sophomores and freshmen will take Maryland High
School Assessments (H.S.A.’s) beginning May 20, and then begin preparation for final exams. These
exams are important as preparing for them helps students assimilate a full year of learning so they can
continue to grow academically. And the final exam grade will affect the permanent final grade on the
student’s transcript. It is very important to finish the year strong, so attend on time every day and stay
focused on learning.
School Safety has always been very important and has received new emphasis in light of recent
events. As those who have visited since spring break know, we now have a buzzer entry system. In
the next few weeks we will have additional cameras to monitor activity. We will also add the Raptor
Identification System during the spring with full implementation by fall. All visitors, including parents, will need a photo ID such as a driver’s license to visit the building. A data base will be kept of
all visitors.
Check out the new free mobile app, BCPS Now. It is available on iPhones, iPods, and Android
phones and devices. You will be able to access the latest BCPS news, calendars and school closings,
and other information at your fingertips.
We Are One- All In!
Lyn Whitlock, Principal
.
New Security System at BCPS Schools
The safety of all students and staff in Baltimore County Public Schools is of utmost importance to all of us.
Our school is utilizing a system for checking in all visitors. The system is called V-soft by RaptorWare or
Raptor.
When you visit our school for the first time, you will be asked to present a government-issued photo ID, or a
driver’s license to a staff member in the school office. The ID will be scanned and the following information
will be collected: your photo, your name, and your date of birth. This information will be utilized to check
you in, create an ID badge, and compare your information against sexual offender databases throughout the
country. If your name appears on any of the lists or you refuse to allow the school to scan your ID, you will
not be allowed access to the school.
The only alternative will be to allow the staff to see your ID, verify your first name, last name, and date of
birth to be entered into the system manually. However, this method does not store the information, and you
must do this each time you visit the school.
If you have your ID scanned, you will be asked to show your ID only on future visits, and your name will be
selected from an existing list of previous visitors. You will also be asked to check out with the office staff
upon leaving the school so that we know you are no longer in the building.
You will be required to check into the system even if you are only coming to school to pick up your child.
The information collected will not be shared outside of
the school and is kept on a secure server. Your assistance in keeping our students and schools safe is
appreciated.

Sophomore Retreat
On Tuesday May 28th Dulaney High School will be hosting the 3rd annual sophomore retreat,
called Building Your Future. This is an all day/whole class event utilizing the talents of our
teachers, counselors, parents, Dulaney upperclassmen, and community members, in an effort
to assist our 10th graders with their future planning.


The morning sessions will be about “planning your next 2 years.” This will include
seminars on transcripts, resumes, college admissions and PSAT/SAT testing.
The middle of the day will include lunch provided by Dulaney, fun team-building
activities, and a panel of Dulaney seniors, there to answer questions about what
sophomores can expect in the next two years.
In addition to this, we will offer an evening session for parents of sophomores. Parents will be
able to get more details about the sophomore retreat day to gather information toward helping
their son’s or daughter’s through the decision making of the next two years. School budgets
continue to be reduced and for those who are able, we’re asking for parents to make monetary
contributions to help us serve the needs of our students. Any additional funds will be transferred
to the sophomore class for their senior prom and graduation.
We hope you will attend the evening session in the library on:
May 14th from 6:00pm – 7:00pm
To make a donation:
Checks should be made payable to Dulaney High School/Sophomore Retreat.

Teachers and students at Dulaney High School have accepted the challenge initiated by two physical education
teachers to join them in donating 8 inches of their long hair to Pantene Beautiful Lengths.
Pantene Beautiful Lengths was the first company and is the largest national movement to create quality, realhair wigs made by hair generously provided by volunteers. Wigs are then offered free to women affected by
hair loss from cancer. As stated on the Pantene website, “To us, it’s hair, but to women with cancer, it’s hope.”
Teachers Kellie Fialcowitz and Jessica Szymanski initiated the challenge early in the school year with the goal of
having 50 or more participants by June 1, 2013. This challenge embodies the school’s motto “We Are One – All
In!” which celebrates the school’s commitment to community.
At this time, Kellie and Jessica are looking for a hair salon in the area that will join them in their efforts.
Sophomore Hannah Wampler was selected as one of 13 new Carson
Scholars Fund scholarship winners for Baltimore County. The scholarships are given to high-achieving students who demonstrate academic achievement and humanitarian qualities. In addition, Clayton
Cuddington and Alexandra Vlk were honored as their Carson Scholar
status has been renewed due to their continued high academic
standards and a strong commitment to their community. Each scholar is awarded a $1,000 college scholarship.
Dee Dee Ling, a Dulaney High School senior, has been selected as a member of the 2012-2013
All-County Honors Dance Ensemble for Baltimore County Public Schools. Dee Dee joins 22
other highly skilled dancers from county schools for this honor. Students were nominated by
their dance teachers based on their academic record, ability and skill and commitment to the
dance program, and ability to work in challenging rehearsals.
