His career as an educator began when he became a teacher at Wen- dell Phillips Evening High School. A short time later, he became a full-time machine shop teacher at Dunbar Vocational High School where he successively served as Administrator, Placement Coun- selor, Assistant Principal, and Director of Special Projects in Voca- tional Education. His last position was a Director of Vocational Education and Guid- ance Centers for the Chicago Board of Education. He was then the highest paid African American employee at the Chicago Board of Education. Mr. Simeon’s interest in the vocational training of Chi- cago’s youth was evident to all who observed his tireless devotion to his work. He was vitally concerned with the special problems in the area of vocational education. He was eminently qualified to assume the directorship of such a dynamic program of prepar- ing the city’s youth for the forthcoming manpower requirements of our changing economy. 2 43 SIMEON CAREER ACADEMY LEADERSHIP TEAM PRINCIPAL Dr. Sheldon House ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL Mrs. Karin McFall DEAN OF INSTRUCTION Mr. Keith Houghteling CTE COORDINATORS/LEADS Mr. Christopher Hammond Mr. Mitchell Staroscik DEAN OF STUDENTS Mr. Robert Smith DEAN OF ATTENDANCE Mr. Jesse Chick CULTURE AND CLIMATE COORDINATOR Mr. Dante Culbreath, Security Supervisor ATHLETIC DIRECTOR Mr. Reginald Brock FINANCE Ms. Martissa Berry Ms. Raja Mayers 42 3 Table of Contents Bell Schedule…………………………………………………………………………………5-6 Key Dates……………………………………………………………………………………...7-9 Wolverine Rules………………………………………………………………………………10 Good Standing Policy………………………….…………………………………………..11 Senior Obligation List………………………………………………………………….12-13 Social Activities……………………………………………………………………………....14 Dress Code…………………………………………………………………………………14-15 Activity Fees/ Student IDs/Fee Wavier………………………………………..…..16 Grading Scale/Promotion Criteria/Scheduling ………………………………..17 Progress Reports…………………………………………………………………………....18 Assessments/Quarterly Exams/Final Exams/ Assessment Support… 19 Simeon Organizational Chart……………………………………………………...20-21 Student IDs/Student Resource Center/Internet Use/Rules..…………...22 Parking/Student Drivers/Visitors……………………………………………………..23 Locker Policy/Physical Education Lockers..……………………………………...24 Cafeteria Rules/ Outside Food………………………………………………………...25 Textbooks/Loitering/Elevator Policies……………………………………………..26 Student Support Department/Credit and Graduation Requirements.27 Every Child, Every Day, In Every Seat, On Time Counts/ Attendance..30 Address & Phone/Excused, Unexcused, Medical Absences……………..31 Early Dismissals……………………………………………………………………………….32 Tardies/Truancy/ Hall Sweep..………………………………………………………...33 Dean’s Office/Disciplinary Procedures……………………………………………..34 Suspension (In & Out-of-School)/Alternative to Suspension……….34-35 Cellular Phone/ Electronics Policy……………..…………………………………….36 Fighting/Gambling/Gangs/Weapons/Obscenity/Searches……………....37 Illegal Substances/Social Network Policy…………………………………...37-38 Parent Advisory Council/Local School Council………………………………….38 CIWP Focus……………………………………………………………………………………..39 CIWP Priorities………………………………………………………………………………..40 4 41 CIWP PRIORITIES Bell Schedule 1.

  • About After School Matters
    Letter from the Chair Dear Friends: During the past year, teens participating in After School Matters programs have demonstrated remarkable accomplishments in the arts, science, sports, technology, and communications. We are thrilled to continue making valuable and engaging out-of-school time opportunities possible for Chicago teens. After School Matters’ 2009 fiscal year was punctuated by several highlights. In September 2008, more than 2,000 guests attended our sixth annual After School Matters Gala on the new, then unopened, runway at O’Hare International Airport. In March 2009, our teens celebrated a global range of influences when they performed at the legendary Chicago Theatre during the fourth annual After School Matters Citywide Showcase. Guests at both events enjoyed thrilling stage performances, onsite galleries featuring the work of teens enrolled in our visual arts programs, and delectable hors d’oeuvres prepared by teens in our culinary arts programs. While these events always provide a spectacular opportunity to celebrate our teens and their talents, the importance and impact of After School Matters is evident in our programs year-round. During the 2008- 2009 academic year, Chicago teens participated in more than 30,000 quality out-of-school time opportunities made available through After School Matters. Through 1,300 programs offered in partnership with schools, parks, libraries, and community organizations across the city, these teens engaged in life-changing experiences that give them the motivation and confidence they need to transform themselves into innovative leaders, talented professionals, passionate artists – whatever they want to be. Thanks to our instructors, staff, partners and supporters, After School Matters has experienced tremendous growth over the last two decades and is now the largest initiative of its kind in the nation.
