White Bear Lake Area High School South Campus
Tim Wald, Principal August, 2016
WELCOME to White Bear Lake Area High School South Campus. We look forward to a challenging, safe, and
rewarding school year. We are excited this year to bring forward a new building initiative; all 11th & 12th grade students will be receiving a Chromebook laptop this fall as part of our continued technology rollout. While this program is not new to our incoming 11th graders from North, it will be a new experience for our 12th graders and teaching staff.
I hope the rest of your summer is enjoyable and relaxing. While there is no need for any of us to feel a rush to the new school year, I look forward to the start of a rewarding year for our students and their families.
Tim Wald, Principal [email protected]

If you experience any issues during this process, call our techline at 6514077500 ext 1234.
Counselors will be available for necessary schedule changes on a first come, first served basis on Wednesday, August 24th from 7:00 11:00 am and in the afternoon from 2:00 6:00 pm (see Schedule Changes below). If you have any questions, please call 6517736222.
Schedule Changes Classes were formed, schedules created, and staff hired and assigned on the basis of last winter’s student course selection. Now that this process is complete, schedule changes are discouraged, and in many cases, not possible. Changes can only be honored if it is educationally best for the student and there is room in the desired course.
Examples of “acceptable” schedule changes include:
➢ Inappropriate course placement ➢ Course prerequisites have not been met ➢ Course has been taken and cannot be repeated for credit ➢ Acceptance to a special program, medical, or administrative action.
Students whose requests fall within these guidelines have the first three days of the semester to request a schedule change. Please be aware that changing your schedule may have an unwanted impact on your transcript. If a course is dropped by the third class day, it is dropped with no record. Courses dropped between the third day and the end of the second week are dropped with a “W” (Withdrawn) and will not impact the GPA. If a course is dropped after the second week of that course, an “NC” (No Credit) will be recorded on the report card for that semester or year, which will reduce the GPA.

Parent Communication email address You should expect to receive our newsletters via the email address you have on file with us. You can update your email address via Family Access by going to ‘My Account” on the home page. Additionally, we will be sending our daily bulletin to this same address. If you wish to receive our newsletters via US Mail or wish to opt out of our daily bulletin, please contact Cathy Ackerknecht at [email protected] or at 7736204.
Medications During School Hours Medications should be given at home before or after school if possible. If a student’s health requires medication during school hours, the school will need to have the following:
1. A written statement from the physician stating the name of the child, name of the medication, dosage, the time(s) to be taken, reason, any possible side effects, and the date the medication is to be stopped.
2. A written authorization from a parent/guardian stating permission for your child to receive the medication in school as prescribed by your child’s physician.
3. The medication supplied in a prescription bottle or container properly labeled by a pharmacy or physician. Please ask your pharmacy to provide two prescription bottles or containers at the time you obtain the medication. This will allow you to have a prescription container at home and at school.
School Clothes Shopping? We encourage students to dress modestly for school. Please consider the following text from our student handbook when purchasing clothes to be worn at school: “Low necklines, spaghetti straps, backless tops or halter tops are not allowed. All tops must cover both shoulders and midriffs. Bottoms that are too short, suggestive, reveal underclothes or the lower back area are also inappropriate. Stretch pants/tights may only be worn if a sweatshirt or skirt covers the student’s bottom. If a student does not have appropriate clothing with them, they may be asked to go home or have their parents deliver clothing to them at school.”
Thanks for your help assuring are students report to school appropriately dressed for a day of learning.
Peanut Sensitivity and Safety Several students at South Campus have severe, life threatening peanut and/or tree nut allergies. Contact with these allergens can result in an anaphylactic reaction (anaphylactic shock). Anaphylaxis is a serious allergic reaction that is rapid in onset and may cause death. For the safety of our students we respectfully request the following: Please avoid sending peanuts/tree nuts, peanut/tree butter, foods containing peanut/tree nut or that may contain traces of peanuts/tree nuts to school. When peanuts/tree nuts are consumed by students or adults, their hands, mouth, and other areas of their bodies become contaminated with peanuts/tree nuts oil and residue is easily spread by students and staff as they move about the school (drinking fountains, bus seats, keyboards, school papers, etc). Peanut oil does not come off with hand sanitizer or hand wipes, only soap and water. With student safety in mind, the school district follows procedures that affect all grade levels. Currently, we do not serve peanut products in all grade levels K12. No peanuts, soy butter, peanut butter, sunflower seeds, are available to students of all grade levels and staff in the kitchen, cafeteria serving lines, a la carte lines, and cafeteria areas. We ask students and families to refrain from bringing to school any peanuts or peanut products because of the health risk they pose to students diagnosed with nut allergies. Please contact Bridget Lehn, Director of Nutrition Services, at 6514077524 with questions or concerns.

Attendance Procedures Parents/guardians should call the attendance line (6517736211 or 6517736210) before 9:30 am each day a student is absent, unless alternative arrangements have been made. The school’s automated calling system will contact parents of students who have unverified absences at approximately 10:00 am each day. Students who leave the building during the school day must be dismissed through either the Health Office or Attendance Office. Parents/guardians may call the attendance line (6517736210) or send a note to excuse students for appointments during the school day. Notes should be brought to the attendance office when the student arrives at school.
When calling the attendance line, please speak clearly and provide the following information:
➢ Student’s full name and grade (please spell the last name) ➢ Your name and relationship to the student ➢ Phone number where you can be reached during the day ➢ Date of absence and/or time for dismissal and approximate return time for appointments

White Bear Lake Area High School South Campus
Activities and Absences When students participate in any cocurricular and/or sports activity, they are required to be in attendance at school the entire day of the event, unless it is an excused absence. Students must not incur any unexcused absence (as outlined in the student attendance policy 503) the day after an event if the day is the next consecutive school day of the same week. If an unexcused absence is incurred for the next consecutive school day of the same week, the student will not participate in the next scheduled cocurricular and/or sports event (Board Policy 503).
Tardiness and Consequences Tardiness to class causes a disruption to the educational process and can limit student success. The first five tardies are handled by the teacher, who will give warnings and/or detention; subsequent tardies are referred to administration. Repeated tardies to school may result in loss or suspension of parking privileges.
Requesting Homework When parents are reasonably sure that a student will be absent for three or more consecutive days, they may want to request homework by calling the Attendance Office at 6517736210. It should be ready for pickup after 2:30 p.m. on the next day. If requesting homework on a Friday, the request will not be ready until Monday afternoon. Another option is for a friend or sibling to request assignments directly from teachers.
Discipline Procedures The staff and administration at White Bear Lake Area High School are committed to providing an effective learning environment for all students. Discipline at White Bear High School, in cooperation with the home, is designed to encourage students to develop the selfdiscipline that is necessary to function successfully in school. Our goal is to teach students to have respect for the rights and safety of all individuals within the school and community, as well as respect for public and private property. Student behavior that disrupts class work or invades the rights of others will not be tolerated. A summary of the discipline code appears in the student handbook, which will be distributed to all students during the first week of school. School Board Student Discipline Policy 506
Aware Program AWARE (Academics with Accountability and Restorative Education) provides an alternative educational setting for students who require short or longterm placements for safety, disciplinary or other reasons. AWARE is located adjacent to WBL Transition Plus in Hugo. Transportation to AWARE is provided from all secondary buildings. While attending AWARE, students complete assignments from their current courses and participate in restorative activities. Staff members at AWARE work with students, parents and teachers to ensure a successful transition back to school.
Bullying Bullying includes, but is not limited to, conduct by a student against another student or a group of students that has the effect of harming students, damaging student property, placing a student in reasonable fear of harm to person or property, or creating a hostile or intimidating environment. The school district will act to investigate all complaints of bullying. A student who engages in an act of bullying, reprisal, or false reporting of bullying or permits, condones, or tolerates bullying shall be subject to discipline for that act in accordance with school district policies and procedures.
Detention Students who are assigned detention are encouraged to serve the time with a teacher whenever possible. This allows students to make up assignments, receive individual assistance, and develop positive relationships with staff. Detention assigned by an administrator may also be served in the Main Office, Monday Friday, 7:15 7:45 am or 2:45 3:30 pm

Sexual harassment can be defined as unwelcome sexual advances, request for sexual favors, sexuallymotivated physical contact or other verbal or physical contact or communication of a sexual nature.

Grade Point Values, GPA, Transcript and Class Rank White Bear Lake Area High School evaluates students on a 4.0 scale with each grade given point values as listed below.
Weighted grades are provided for all Advanced Placement, A = 4.000 points C+ = 2.333 points College in the Schools, and Project Lead the Way courses. A = 3.667 points C = 2.000 points Weighted grades are calculated by multiplying the above point B+ = 3.333 points C = 1.667 points values by 1.25. Student transcripts show both weighted and B = 3.000 points D+ = 1.333 points unweighted GPA and class rank. B = 2.667 points D = 1.000 points D = 0.667 points Our Academic Recognition Policy (599) can be read in its entirety on the district website. For this recognition only weighted grades will be used. Eligible students will work to compete against the criterion for academic honors, rather than each other. An eligible student’s final cumulative, weighted GPA at the end of the second semester of senior year will be used to determine the level of honor on a high school transcript, and for academic recognition at commencement. The three levels of honors to be awarded to eligible students who have acquired academic excellence are:
1. Summa Cum Laude: With Highest Distinction; Cumulative weighted GPA of 4.1 or above 2. Magna Cum Laude: With Great Distinction; Cumulative weighted GPA of 4.0 – 4.09 3. Cum Laude: With Distinction; Cumulative weighted GPA of 3.8 – 3.99
