Student Handbook

This handbook is designed to assist you and your student.  It is not all-inclusive, but does cover most of the items that commonly concern our school community.

OPTIMUM LEARNING ENVIRONMENT:

Yelm Community Schools embraces the diversity within our schools and seeks to create a nurturing and barrier-free learning environment for each student.  To achieve this goal we commit to:

  • Preparing our students to thrive in a multicultural and diverse society.
  • Ensuring fair, equitable and inclusive principles are integrated into our policies, programs, operations and practices. 
  • Creating school and classroom cultures that are free of bias-based language or behaviors.
  • Eliminating barriers that perpetuate negative outcomes.
  • Providing all students the resources, opportunities and supports needed to succeed at high levels.
  • Honoring and building upon the strengths and assets of every student.
  • Welcoming and engaging families and community members as essential partners. 

Please read through the handbook with your student in order to better understand the essential information regarding our school.  Please sign the Student-Family Handbook Awareness Form on the last page and return it to your student’s teacher as soon as possible. 

As a staff, we encourage your active involvement in your student’s education.  A strong partnership between home and school will greatly benefit your student as she/he learns and grows.  We are here to assist you and your student and invite you to call or stop by the front office whenever we may be of service to you.    

Thank you for your support!
