This handbook will also inform you about staff, programs, and other related items of interest that you need to be aware of. I will be taking the necessary time early in the school year to discuss vital information within the handbook with your student so they are aware of specific expectations and procedures at the Jr./Sr. High School, but please take the time to review this handbook with your student as well. Disciplinary methods vary slightly throughout our building and depend upon each teacher’s discipline philosophy. You can be assured that every student will be treated with discipline that is both fair and firm when needed. We hold our students to high expectations. Their decisions and actions have a direct effect on their learning environment, and also the learning environment of others. Providing a safe and effective learning environment for all students is our highest priority. The staff at the Jr./Sr. High School takes a great deal of pride in the work that we do to provide an effective learning environment for each student. We expect the students to take that same pride and ownership for their learning, and respect what our school stands for. When students accept responsibility for their actions and behaviors in a positive way, everyone benefits from the positive school culture and climate of the school as well as the academic learning environment that we all share as students grow in the learning process. Our school's reputation and success rest, in large measure, on parental involvement. We need your cooperation and understanding if this year is to provide a profitable and satisfying experience for your child. I would like to extend an invitation to you, as stakeholders of your students’ education, to visit the school; all we ask is that you stop by the office to inform us of your presence and to please wear your visitors pass. Safety is of the utmost importance and you can help ensure your child’s safety by being diligent in wearing the visitors pass. Lastly, I would to wish students and parents a successful school year. I am extremely excited and honored to be part of the success and great tradition of the Custer School District, and am looking forward to an even more successful future. I know that with support of our stakeholders, we as a community can accomplish great things. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to stop by and visit with me. Sincerely, R. Orion Thompson Jr/Sr High Principal 3 Table of Contents SCHOOL HOURS ........................................................................................................................7 Arrival

    800.275.2840 MORE NEWS» insideradio.com THE MOST TRUSTED NEWS IN RADIO TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 2015 Bubba-Beasley Woes Stretch Into October. For a second consecutive month, Beasley Media Group is the recipient of a harsh Nielsen ratings delistment for rocker “Bubba 98.7” WBRN-FM in a Tampa ratings scandal that has widened to include the October ratings. Beasley says it was “blindsided and disappointed” by the latest delistment. In a notice to Tampa ratings subscribers issued Monday morning, Nielsen said it has “further evidence of panel- tampering attempts” by Bubba The Love Sponge Clem, who is the defendant in a $1 million suit brought by Nielsen in federal court over alleged ratings fraud. “Nielsen has assessed the evidence of these additional panel tampering attempts in context with the previously disclosed panel tampering efforts that were acknowledged by this personality,” the notice says. “As a result of these additional activities, and pursuant to Nielsen’s Rating Distortion guidelines,” Nielsen said it isn’t reporting October audience estimates for WBRN-FM. Nielsen issued the Tampa ratings yesterday at 1pm, six days after their scheduled release date. The second delisting came as a surprise to Beasley after Nielsen said, one month ago when it first delisted WBRN-FM, that the improper activity was discovered in a timely manner and that it removed the tainted panelist’s results from the delayed September survey numbers. But based on allegations made in Nielsen’s suit, the syndicated host engaged with multiple PPM panelists in a carefully coordinated scheme. Nielsen’s admission of “further evidence of panel tampering attempts” suggests the scandal goes deeper than what was initially uncovered.
