Stanwood Spartans are united in cultivating character,

We are excited to be in our new school building and look forward to showcasing what our community has provided for our students and staff.
You might hear about non-negotiables from your child. Non-negotiables
are principles we all agree to abide by, like a contract. If any
member of the group does not follow the list, then the contract is
broken and we won't accomplish our goal.
This year's non-negotiables are:
1. Teachers and students are expected to use the full extent of class time. Students will not be released early from class.
2. Staff will encourage student punctuality and attendance by
being visible in hallways, following the building tardy policy and
entering attendance into Skyward within the class period.
3. Staff will make school a welcoming and safe place. Staff presence in hallways will assist in this.
4. Staff and students will not use their cell phones, electronic
devices, or headphones during the class period UNLESS electronic devices
are being used for administrator- approved teacher directed learning
activities.
5. Staff will not allow students to sleep in class.
These non-negotiables will allow us to focus on improved student
achievement and engagement in the classroom. By holding each other
accountable with these non-negotiables, staff and students will make SHS
a better learning environment for EVERYONE and Unite us in our commitment to educate students.
