Enclosed is information that will allow us to team together to provide your child with an outstanding educational experience. Please note that most of our check-in information and forms are being provided through the district website http://my.cherrycreekschools.org. Thank you for taking the time to review the material with your child and for providing the necessary information electronically. Eaglecrest is committed to being an exemplary learning community focused on preparing each and every student for college success. As such, high academic achievement and school safety will continue to be our primary areas of focus. Our teachers, counselors, deans, mental health professionals, and student achievement services personnel work in conjunction with administration to create a positive, productive, and respectful school climate. Eaglecrest High School has outstanding programs in athletics and activities allowing students to compete, perform, and excel. Our students discover that a well-rounded program of study, including a balance of challenging academic coursework and participation in extra-curricular activities, gives them the best opportunity for preparation for life beyond high school. We continuously review our comprehensive safety plan to insure a safe, productive, academic environment whereby students are expected to spend the academic day engaged in highly academic endeavors. Because of security and supervision limitations, building doors will not open until 6:30 a.m. and students who are not involved in a supervised activity after the end of the school day are required to leave campus by 3:00 p.m. Please take the time prior to the start of school to coordinate your family’s schedule and transportation plans to adhere to these time constraints. As a reminder… our Raptors Rest, Relax, and Read Program requires ALL Eaglecrest students to read over the summer. The list of books and associated assignments were given to students at the end of the school year. This information can also be found on the EHS website http://eaglecrest.cherrycreekschools.org as a reference or if you are new to our community. I invite you to stop by and introduce yourself.

We hope you had a wonderful summer and are ready to jump into your new classes and have a fantastic start to your school year! Each year, a great deal of thought, time, energy, and budgeting is involved in creating student schedules. Last February, students were provided with information and counsel regarding course selection. Once courses were selected requests were signed by parents and then reviewed by counselors and department coordinators. Throughout the summer, Eaglecrest’s Registrar and Eaglecrest counselors have spent time rechecking student schedules and making final adjustments when needed. Each of these steps was taken to ensure that every student is placed in appropriately challenging coursework. Due to the amount of time and energy taken to design the best master schedule possible based on the courses student selected, schedule changes in August will not be permitted. While schedule changes are not possible, if there is a legitimate error then students can work with their counselor to request a schedule repair. Schedule repairs must meet one of the conditions listed below. Students can email their counselors about schedule repair concerns or students can drop in for schedule repair questions Monday, August 1st from 8-10 A.M. It is the philosophy and belief of the faculty and administration of Eaglecrest High School that students may be scheduled into classes during all four periods of both A Days and B Days. Please do not request a particular study period. Reasons for needing a schedule repair: • A schedule that does not include a sufficient number of credits (Freshman must have 8, Sophomores must have 7, Juniors must have 6, Seniors must have 5) • • • A schedule that does not include sufficient core classes (4 academic classes or 3 AP courses) A schedule that places the student in the wrong level of a course A schedule that doesn’t include a course(s) required for graduation (Seniors only) Eaglecrest Check-In 2016 WHY YOU SHOULD PAY YOR ACTIVITY FEE? Why should you pay your Activity Fee? That is a good question because most parents and students are curious about where that $30 goes. The money is divided among Athletics, Activities, and PTO. Some of the benefits of the Activity Fee are: • All regular season Home Athletic Events are FREE with a paid Activity Fee. • Homecoming, Prom, and After Prom are supported by the Activity Fee. Prices are discounted for each event with a paid Activity Fee. The following list shows how the portion of the fee assists EHS Activities. In some cases the money is the sole form of funding for a particular activity. In other cases it is a supplement that reduces the cost of a product or event for students. The following activities are funded by the Activity Fee: Art Club AVE Brotherhood Chamber Orchestra & Mariachi Band Color Guard Creative Writing Club Chess Club DECA Dodgeball Club Drama Club EATEnvironmental Action Team EHS Book Club FBLA FCCLA French Club Hip Hop Gallifrey Club/Dr. Who Club Game On GSA Guitar Club Improv International Thespian Society Jazz Band Key Club Latin Club Latino Unidas LINK Crew Literary Magazine Marching Band National Art Honor Society National English Honor Society National French Honor Society National Honor Society National Japanese Honor Society National Science Honor Society National Spanish Honor Society Newspaper Outdoor Adventure Club Peer Buddies Ping Pong Club Podcasting Club Programming Club Raptor Skate Team Robotics Sisterhood Speech & Debate Student Leadership Super Crew Travel Club Yearbook YEH Youth Ending Hunger It is helpful to pay your Activity Fee because it supports the activities listed above and because the activities listed impact YOU and YOUR STUDENT!

Medication will be administered by the school nurse, or by school personnel whom the registered nurse has trained and delegated the task of giving such medication. (A parent is always welcome to come to the school and administer medication to his or her own child.) 3. Medication shall be in the original, properly labeled container with the current date printed on the container, and all other parameters required for medication administration (student name, prescribing physician’s name, drug name, dose, route, time and/or frequency). 4. In some instances, at the high school level, students who demonstrate responsibility may be allowed to carry their medications on their person and self-administer such medication in accordance with the current pharmacy-labeled container, or in the case of over-the-counter medication, in accordance with the manufacturer’s label. Students who misuse this privilege may be subject to disciplinary action per applicable school board policies. Please contact your high school nurse for additional information. The following guidelines shall also pertain to the administration of medication to students in the school setting: Rescue/Prescription medications: (Albuterol and epinephrine) should be kept in the clinic unless written permission for a student to carry these prescription drugs has been agreed to by the physician, parent and school nurse. This written agreement form is located in the school clinic and on the Health Services Web page. It requires, in part, that the student has demonstrated the necessary maturity to keep it on their person. Prescription Medications: Prescription medications require written permission for administration in the school setting from both a healthcare provider and a parent/guardian. Most pharmacies are happy to provide an extra labeled container so that a prescription can be divided and placed in a properly labeled container for school use. If the dose or the directions change, a new form/container must be submitted. Over-the-counter medications: Written parental permission is required for administration of over-thecounter medications. Since many medications resemble another in appearance, medication must be sent to the school in the original manufacturer’s container with the label intact. If a student requires a dosage outside the manufacturer’s recommendations, a healthcare provider’s authorization for the variation is required in addition to the parent’s signature. Since aspirin has been associated with Reyes Syndrome when given to children with influenza or chickenpox, medications containing aspirin may only be administered with a healthcare provider’s and a parent/guardian’s signature. Homeopathic/Herbal medications: These medications are not considered to be over-the-counter medications, but require written permission for administration in the school setting by both a healthcare provider and the student’s parent/guardian. Some homeopathic preparations may require a review from the Cherry Creek School District Medical Advisory Board. Transportation of medications: Parents/guardians are personally responsible for the delivery of student medications to and from school, and should hand them directly to the nurse, building administrator, or other school official. In the event an approved adult is unable to bring the prescription to school, that individual shall contact the school and notify the nurse or other school official of the date the medication is to arrive, giving the name of the medication and the exact quantity of medication included in the properly labeled container. Any medication sent to the school without the labeled container will be kept in the clinic or main office to be returned to the parent. Additionally, any unused medication will be available for pickup through the end of the school year by the parent/guardian. Any medication not picked up will be discarded. The schools will not send unused medication home with students. Planning ahead: It is recommended that any student requiring a medication at school or at home have a seventy-two (72) hour supply kept in the clinic in the event of an unpredictable local emergency. Please discuss this with your healthcare provider or the school nurse if you are wondering about your child’s need for such an arrangement. Also, because health needs can change, all medication forms will need to be renewed annually. They are available from your health clinic and the District web site at cherrycreekschools.org. Confidentiality of student records. The confidentiality of academic records are protected by the Family Educational Rights to Privacy Act (FERPA). The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) does not apply to schools or the health records maintained within the school nurse’s office. Nursing Procedures: All medical procedures performed during child’s day at school require a “Permission for Nursing Procedure” form to be signed by attending physician and parent/guardian. Procedures requiring this form include but are not limited to tube feeding, tracheostomy care, suctioning and other medical treatments. All nursing procedure forms shall be renewed annually at the beginning of the school year. Individual Health Plans (IHP). The IHP is developed by the professional school nurse to address and communicate the health needs of the student to school personnel with an educational interest in the student. The IHP development and implementation by the RN allows sharing of necessary information and planning for student health needs to maximize student access and participation in their education. All IHPs are renewed annually at the beginning of the school year and as needed in response to a change in student health status. Communications with the school nurse are essential in ensuring your student’s health needs are addressed in the school setting. If your student requires medication, nursing procedures and or an individual health plan call your school nurse the week prior to school beginning to discuss the needs of your student. We look forward to helping your student have a safe and healthy educational experience this year.
