The Southeast Polk High School will be holding orientation on August 10-12 from 8:00 am – 3:00 pm.
Due to current COVID restrictions and guidance, we ask that families complete as much of the process online and only come to the building for assistance if needed. We will do our best to respect social distancing guidelines and minimize the number of people gathering in one area.
The following information was also mailed to all high school student parents/guardians
2. Pay fees;
Pick up prepaid Parking Permit from front office (summer office hours are 8:00-3:00)
Pick up prepaid Activity Pass from the attendance office windows (due to COVID restrictions our district is still weighing options for student activity passes).
3. Deposit money in food service account
4. Transportation – Families living within a 3 mile radius of the high school may be required to pay a bus fee and will be billed $90 / semester. Contact our District Transportation department for questions regarding busing. Parking Permits are required for students who plan to drive to school. Parking Permits may be purchased online or in the front office for $15 per semester. Parking Permits will be picked up from the front office before driving to school. Students in need of a school permit (Minor School License) may email a picture of their current permit (Instruction Permit) to administrative assistant, Marla Kelly at marla.kelly@southeastpolk.org. Marla will then email you the form to complete.
5. Student Pictures/Student ID/yearbook picture – All students are asked to take their school picture each year. This picture is used for student ID AND for the yearbook. Yearbook purchase information will be sent to all students and parents via email at a later date. Josten’s photography will be taking student photos this school year. Students may have their picture taken during orientation/open house but we will provide additional picture dates the first week of school for those who are unable to make orientation/open house.
High School students who were unable to have their picture taken during the Aug. 10-12 orientation days may do so on either Aug. 25 or 27 between the hours of 7:30am-11:00am in our auditorium. Remote learning students may come at 7:30 to avoid congestion as students will not be called to the auditorium for pictures until 8:10am.
