Missoula County Public Schools School District 2019-2020 Missoula County Public Schools School District SENTINEL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT HANDBOOK 2019-2020 WELCOME PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE: On behalf of the Sentinel staff, we want to welcome you to the 2019-2020 school year. First, I would like to introduce myself as your new Sentinel High School Principal. My name is Ryan Rettig and I am truly honored for the opportunity to serve you and the Sentinel staff. I was born and raised in Kennewick, WA, but have always been fond of the City of Missoula and what it has to offer. As an educator with 18 years of experience, I believe it’s imperative we provide your student with an educational experience that is challenging, rewarding and most importantly, safe. As the school year nears, Sentinel will be entering the final phase of construction. For staff and students, it’s been a long journey in the making, but I believe the finished product will impress. We believe your partnership and support are key elements in ensuring that your student receives the best educational experience. The Sentinel staff is one of the most talented and hard-working staffs around. Staff members bring a multitude of experience which allows them to provide a diverse set of instructional strategies that meet the needs of all students. Please plan on attending our Back to School night on Wednesday, Sept. 18th from 6:00-7:30 at Sentinel HS. We look forward to taking those first steps in building a positive relationship with you and your student. One last note, please take a few minutes and review the handbook with your student. We’ve updated a few areas especially in the Attendance section. We believe attendance matters at Sentinel and expect students to be in class unless they are properly excused through the attendance office. Enjoy those last days and summer and get ready for an exciting year at Sentinel HS! Ryan Rettig Principal SUPERINTENDENT’S MESSAGE: The mission, vision and core beliefs of Missoula County Public Schools are the foundation for the future of our schools. We will continue to foster the development of an inspired 21st Century Educational Culture that improves lifelong student achievement, develops remarkable educational leaders and engages the Missoula community in the future of its children. “Forward Thinking, High Achieving” is a tagline that we use at Missoula County Public Schools. It highlights our goal of continuous improvement of existing programs while also seeking to identify new opportunities to enhance student engagement. MCPS continues to strive for success for every student every day, and this year will be no exception. We are transforming our district’s future through implementation of our “Achievement for All” five- year instructional strategic plan which calls for enhanced student engagement, updated learning environments, increased collaboration and communication with all stakeholders, improved professional growth opportunities for staff, and development of a culture of innovation throughout the district. The facility enhancements being completed as a result of our bond initiatives are designed to support all students and staff with buildings that meet the vision expressed by the community in the 21st Century Model of Education. The bond projects will provide the necessary investment in our schools to repair aging buildings, update technology infrastructure and increase capacity for our growing student body. Great school facilities enhance student learning; well-educated students yield a high- quality workforce which will attract new businesses and jobs. Investing in our schools is truly an investment in our local economy. At MCPS, we want students to succeed and graduate regardless of their circumstances and abilities. Each and every student is important; our dedicated educators work hard to ensure that each student is learning and succeeding in the classroom. Together, with continued community support and dedication to our children, we will continue to increase academic rigor, improve graduation rates and prepare our students for post-secondary and workforce success. I look forward to a continued partnership with the Missoula community to provide the foundation to ensure success for all students.
