WELCOME BACK!! I hope everyone had a great summer and is ready to return to school. We have
been very busy throughout the summer and I’m very excited about the upcoming year. As you come back to
the buildings, you will see many changes around the school. We also have some changes in the classrooms
this year. I’m very pleased to say that we will be offering art again this year. We have also continued to build
out technology in the classroom. With the addition of I-pads in third grade and Chromebooks in fourth grade,
we will have one-to-one technology from third grade through seniors.
I would like to remind everyone that registration night will be August 11 th starting at 6:30 in the
elementary gym. This is a great night to get all your back to school paperwork done and meet your child’s
teacher. There will be a very short presentation at 7:00 and then you will be able to go to the classrooms. The
start of the school year can bring about some anxieties. Coming to the open house allows the students to
meet their teachers and see the school before the year starts. Also, if your child would like to come check out
the school prior to the start of school please encourage them to do so.
I know this seems like a long ways away but I would ask you to please keep October 19 th free. The
school is going to participate in Rachel’s Challenge. The day will consist of assemblies at the elementary and
high school along with an evening presentation open to everyone. Rachel’s Challenge is a story of one girl’s
struggles in school and how her life is trying to change the world. I think it is important that parents also hear this
message so we can continue to remind your children of the message. I know this program will not solve all
problems but with everyone working together, we can make a difference. I will be talking more about this
evening in the future but just wanted to get the conversation started. Please plan on attending!!
The school will once again be offering patron passes this year which will allow you entrance into all
regular season activities at school. You will need to contact the school and we will print a pass for you. I think
this is a great benefit the school provides so please take advantage of it and plan on attending many events.
It’s going to be another great year and I’m looking forward to seeing everyone at registration. Enjoy the
rest of your summer and see you soon.

A “No Smoking Policy” is in effect in the schools. This policy does not allow smoking in any school building at
any time. Medical evidence clearly shows that smoking is hazardous to your health, and we ask that you help
set a good example to our students by following this policy.
Possession of Tobacco Products – Student use or possession of tobacco products or any nicotine delivery
device is not allowed in any of the school buildings or on the premises at any time. This rule applies at any
school function, whether it is a home event or away event. Possession or use of tobacco will result in
suspension and notification of the police.
Alcoholic Beverages and illegal drugs are not allowed on the school grounds, either inside or outside the
building or at the football field. Law enforcement officials will be called to enforce the South Dakota laws that
pertain to this matter. Please help to do your part to see that this matter does not cause embarrassment to
you, your family, the community or the school. Your cooperation in helping fight alcohol and drug abuse is
appreciated.
Medications Policy – The school policy will be strictly followed to insure safety for all students in the AlcesterHudson Schools. The student and his or her parents/guardians must fill out the proper authorization and
release form in the office. Only one month’s dosage should be brought, and it is the responsibility of the
parent/guardian and the student to take the bottle home to be refilled. We require the medication to be in its
original bottle and the directions from the prescribing doctor. Any prescription medication of any type, which
is brought into the school by students, must be taken to the office immediately upon arrival at school. Penalty
for having any prescription medication in school that has not been presented to the office as required will be
appropriate and may include suspension or expulsion from school. A student in grades 7-12 may bring
enough non-prescription medication to school for one day. The medication does not need to be brought into
the office but must be kept on their person (not in their locker or in an unattended book bag or coat).
Students are not to provide medication to another person without the permission of the school nurse or a
school administrator. Students in Grades K-6 must take any medication (prescription or non-prescription) to
the office immediately upon their arrival at school.
Head Lice – Parents should check their children’s hair on a regular basis and treat promptly if needed. Please
inform the school if your child has had head lice so we can monitor the students. Students will be checked for
head lice if symptomatic. Students who come in frequent, close contact with a child who had head lice may
be checked at school. If nits are found, the student may remain at school. Parents will be notified and
treatment may begin at the conclusion of the school day. If live, crawling lice are found, parents will be
notified immediately and strongly encouraged to pick the child up and begin the treatment process.
Student’s head will be rechecked when he/she return to school the following day.
Immunizations for Grades 1-12 – Students in grades 1-12 must have verification of their 2nd MMR, and must be
up to date with their DPT, Polio and Varicella (chicken pox) immunizations.
Immunization Notice to Kindergarten Parents – ALL KINDERGARTEN STUDENTS MUST BE UP TO DATE WITH THEIR
IMMUNIZATIONS BY THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL. THIS INCLUDES: DPT BOOSTER, POLIO BOOSTER, 2ND MMR,
2nd CHICKEN POX. If you have any questions, feel free to call Amber Harris or Karla Bovill at 934-2171.
PATRON PASSES
The Alcester-Hudson School District School Board is again offering Resident Patron Passes this
year. The passes will be distributed before the first home event. If you forget your pass, you
will be charged. Alcester-Hudson District residents may call 605-934-1890 to order a
personalized pass.

week
of
September

football
game

at 7:00 pm on Friday, September

Please check our website,
alcester-hudson.k12.sd.us,
for
updates to the homecoming
activities.
Supervision of Students at School Activities: Parents
are asked to supervise their own children at school
activities. It is all too common for parents to use
the school activity as a baby-sitting service by
dropping off their children, sometimes as young as
pre-school or kindergarten at the school, and
hoping someone watches them. This creates a
safety problem, as an adult is actually not taking
care of the child. While the game is going on,
children are to be in the bleachers watching the
game rather than running back and forth to the
Commons Area or playing in the Commons Area.
This is for the safety of the spectators. At football
games, it is the parents’ decision as to whether
they want their children to watch the game or
participate in the football games, fights, or general
horseplay, which take place behind the stadium.
With an area that large, it is impossible for school
officials to have any control outside the bleachers,
and no supervision is provided for the parking
area.

The Alcester-Hudson school board urges families of the district to look into two programs that
could help them financially and also provide needed services for their children. The first
deals with school lunches and the second deals with health care. As health care costs rise,
the CHIP program could help families provide their children with the health care they might
otherwise not be able to afford. Please look at these two programs and take advantage of
the opportunities they present. Your student will be receiving more information at
registration.
CHIP – The State Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), expands the State Medicaid
program to specifically serve low-Income uninsured children. CHIP provides FREE medical
coverage for children under age 19. Examples of medical payments include: physicians,
hospital, dental, nursing care, home health care, family planning, clinic, rehabilitation
hospital, prescription drugs, and certain diagnostic services, as well as certain Special
Education Services provided by school districts. An application is available through your
local Department of Social Services office and will be distributed at registration.
FREE OR REDUCED LUNCH APPLICATIONS are available on our website, at registration or at
the school offices and should be returned no later than August 14th, so they can be
processed and lunch tickets can be programmed properly by the first day of school.
Students on free or reduced meals have a tendency to eat at school. This helps our school
lunch fund because the government subsidizes these meals. This helps us provide good
meals at a reasonable price.

No Child Left Behind Act
Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) Model Notice for Directory Information.
The Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), a Federal law, requires that Alcester-Hudson
School District with certain exceptions, obtain your written consent prior to the disclosure of personally
identifiable information from your child’s education records. However, Alcester-Hudson School District
may disclose appropriately designated “directory information” without written consent, unless you
have advised the District to the contrary in accordance with District procedures. The primary purpose
of directory information is to allow the Alcester-Hudson School District to include this type of
information from your child’s education records in certain school publications. Examples include: A
playbill, showing your student’s role in a drama production; the annual yearbook; Honor roll or other
recognition lists; Graduation programs; and Sports activity sheets, such as for wrestling, showing weight
and height of team members. Directory information, which is information that is generally not
considered harmful or an invasion of privacy if released, can also be disclosed to outside
organizations without a parent’s prior written consent. Outside organizations include, but are not
limited to, companies that manufacture class rings or publish yearbooks. In addition, two federal laws
require local educational agencies (LEAs) receiving assistance under the Elementary and Secondary
Education Act of 1965 (ESEA) to provide military recruiters, upon request, with three directory
information categories – names, addresses and telephone listings, - unless parents have advised the
LEA that they don‘t want their student’s information disclosed without their prior written consent.** If
you do not want Alcester-Hudson School District to disclose directory information from your child’s
education records without your prior written consent, you must notify the District in writing by August
20th, 2013. Alcester-Hudson School District has designated the following information as directory
information: Student’s Name, Address, Telephone Listing, Electronic Mail Address, Photograph, Date &
Place of Birth, Major Field of Study, Dates of Attendance Grade Level, Participation in officially
recognized activities and sports, Weight & Height of Members of Athletic Teams, Degrees, Honors &
Awards Received, The Most Recent Educational Agency or Institution Attended
** These laws are: Section 9528 of the ESEA (20 U.S.C. 7908), as amended by the No Child Left Behind
Act of 2001 (P.L. 107-110), the education bill, and 10 U.S.C. 503, as amended by section 544, the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2002 (P.L. 107-101), the legislation that provides
funding for the Nation’s armed forces.

Parent Portal – We are using the parent portal system. You as a parent or
guardian can check on the student’s report card, attendance, assignments,
and other various items. Just stop by the school offices to sign up.
A Birth Certificate is required for all students attending school. This must be a
certified copy that you may obtain at the county courthouse in your county.
We will make a copy of the certificate and return your original to you. If you
have already presented a birth certificate and we have a copy, you need
not present it again. If a birth certificate is not presented at the time of a
student’s initial registration, the student may be provisionally admitted for a
maximum of ten (10) days. If a birth certificate is not provided within ten (10)
days of registration, the student will not be able to continue attendance until
the birth certificate is presented in the school office (per SDSL 13-27-3.1
thru13-27-3.3).
Students Absences – Students are allowed a total of 6 days per semester for
absences. Any absences beyond that will require all time to be made up
before school, after school, or on Saturdays. Doctor’s notes/appointment
cards must be presented to the office in order for doctor appointments to
not count as one of the 6 days. Please call if you have any questions.

Welcome back to a
new year at the library.
We have new books for
the fall that Mrs. Conner
will be cataloguing as
soon as she comes back
to work.
Our Big Event for the fall
will of course be the
Scholastic Book Fair
which will happen
September 14th -18th. We
will do Parents night on
September 14th and then
Grandparents Lunch on
September 16th as well as
our fair being on-line for
those of you that cannot
make it to those events.
In the fall we also do our
Coin War so you can
start to collect your coins
for that. Remember that
we also do the coin war
at our downtown
business at that time too.
This year the theme for
the book fair is Monster
Book Fair: Reading is so
much fun you will have
Goosebumps. So let’s
do a Monster of a Book
fair and be able to buy
many new things for our
library.
