The Kindergarten Graduation and 5th Grade Promotion will take place during the Stepping Stones Ceremony. Please see details here.

Stepping Stones Ceremony
2024-06-06
Each year at SCS we celebrate the completion of the elementary grades with a “Stepping Stones Ceremony.” The Stepping Stones Ceremony is a tradition where the teacher speaks about the class and the students. Students are given a stone memento with their grade to signify completing the year followed by a symbolic advancement to the next grade. It is a wonderful closure and the stones become keepsakes that they collect every year.
All families are encouraged to attend the Stepping Stones Ceremony for their student’s grade. Students should arrive at school in uniform or nicer clothing at normal time (7:40-7:55 am), with morning car line drop off as usual. Students will remain with their class until their ceremony. Parents should arrive a few minutes before their student’s grade is scheduled to begin. Once the whole class has advanced to the next grade level, families will be directed into the school gym where they should check out their student with the designated staff member. After your student has been checked out, there will be a brief opportunity to take pictures before officially starting summer. If you are unable to attend the Stepping Stones event and will not be picking up your student directly after the ceremony, please note that there will be NO dismissal through car line on this day. Parents must park and check into the office to pick up student beginning at 11:30 and no later than noon. See the schedule below:

Free Dress Day
2024-05-30, 2024-04-25
Free dress days are the last Thursday of each month for all students. Common-sense guidelines apply such as no torn-out jeans, no clothes with inappropriate graphic or logos, or anything that promotes violence, drugs, alcohol, tobacco, sex, racism or gang affiliation, no costume items, etc. Prohibited articles of clothing include but are not limited to:

Pajamas, yoga pants, sweatpants, and joggers (except on “Pajama Day”)
Trench coats or capes
Tank tops and spaghetti or thin strap tops
Bare midriff, or see-through clothing
Form-fitting pants cannot be worn alone and must follow uniform guidelines as described in section 1(b)(iii) of the uniform policy at all times.

It is imperative that student attire does not contribute to a hostile or intimidating atmosphere for any student, and that dress code enforcement does not reinforce or increase marginalization or oppression of any group based on race, sex, gender, identity, religion, ethnicity, or cultural observance. Any such clothing items are not allowed, and students inappropriately dressed on free dress day will be asked to change. Parents will be contacted and asked to bring a change of clothes.
If in doubt as to whether an item is appropriate, send back-up clothing in the event your child is asked to change. Younger students are also encouraged to bring a change of clothes in their backpacks in case of accidents.
