Millard Public Schools Families, As you may have heard on the local news channels, emergency room visits across Nebraska are experiencing a spike in overdose visits due to the use of synthetic marijuana known as K2. Both national and local health agencies are calling the use of this drug an overdose crisis. In response, the Millard Public Schools wants to ensure our community is educated about the danger this drug can pose. Please review the information below and take a moment to talk with your children in age appropriate way and explain the significant harmful effects this or any drug can cause.

ALERT: Synthetic Marijuana - Spice (K2) Fact Sheet Marketed as incense: Spice/K2 is a legal substance marketed since 2006 as a dried, herbal blend for use as incense. However, people are smoking the incense because it produces a high similar to marijuana, but of longer duration. The incense is sprayed with JWH-018, a synthetic THC, before it is packaged for sale. This spray is reportedly an "analgesic chemical which acts as a cannabinoid." More potent than marijuana: Depending on the synthetic compound in the specific commercial brand, it can be more potent than marijuana. Not for human consumption: Spice is sold in smoke shops and head shops in a variety of colors/flavors- usually sold in foil packaging or in small glass containers. It is sold as incense and marked “not for human consumption”. The average cost is $30.00 a gram, more expensive than marijuana. Most likely users: 14-27 yr. olds Significant health risks: Spice is causing a significant health risk. Spice/K2 is often contaminated with unidentified toxic substances which contribute to various adverse health effects (also cause hallucinogenic effects similar to effects of PCP. Symptoms/side-effects may include: mimics marijuana “high” (often induced more quickly/more intense than “real” marijuana) hallucinations seizures/tremors coma/unconsciousness vomiting numbness/tingling increased respiration rate elevated blood pressure (reported up to 200/100-medically dangerous) elevated heart rate (reported up to rate of 150-medically dangerous) increased level of anxiety/agitation leading to panic attacks (possible suicide attempts) The lasting effects of K2/Spice drugs may not be known for some time due to the length of time the body can store the chemicals. Developed for research, never tested on humans: Spice/K2 was developed by Dr. John W. Huffman, a Clemson University professor, as part of research for the National Institute for Drug Abuse (NIDA) on endogenous cannabinoid receptors-but never tested on humans nor approved by the FDA. Dr. Huffman said in an interview to WebMD, “It is like Russian roulette to use these drugs. We don’t know a darn thing about them for real. It shouldn’t be out there.” Marketed under various names: It is marketed under a variety of names including K2, Spice, Pep Spice, Spice Silver, Spice Gold, Spice Diamond, Smoke, Skunk, Yucatan Fire, Genie & Zohai Orange Dragon Smoke, Black Mamba, Blaze, Red X, and Dawn. Not just smoked: Spice is most often smoked but can be mixed in with food or drink. The Partnership for Drug-Free Kids - http://www.drugfree.org

ADVANCED PLACEMENT TESTING INFORMATION—MAY 2015
Late Testing Late testing is allowed by the CollegeBoard under very limited conditions. Alternate exams must be ordered and must be given on the assigned dates. CollegeBoard charges an additional $50.00 for each late exam given. Late testing is only permitted for specific emergency situations or district competitions. Late testing is not permitted for senior class trips, school assemblies, family vacations or family commitments. Any student who thinks he/she might qualify for late testing should see Mrs. Mooberry. General Testing Guidelines You must bring your student I.D., a pencil with eraser, and a blue or black pen. (Talk to your subject area teacher about whether or not calculators and what kind of calculators are allowed for certain exams. We will not provide any calculators). You must also arrive to testing on time. You will not be allowed to bring a cell phone in to testing. The CollegeBoard is very strict about this policy due to situations that have occurred across the country in the past. If it is discovered later that you had a cell phone during any of the testing, your exam (as well as others) may be disqualified. Exams can take longer than 4 hours. Students testing in the afternoon must account for this time when planning work schedules and commitments following testing. Review Sources The CollegeBoard offers exam prep materials and practice exams. Some of these resources are free, others cost. Through the CollegeBoard web site www.collegeboard.com/apstudents, students will also find more information about AP testing and different college requirements for scores on exams to earn credit and advance standing.

PLEASE UPDATE YOUR E-MAIL Parents and Guardians Millard West communicates primarily via e-mail. We do not want you to miss any information we are sending out to you. If your e-mail has changed, please e-mail: kgfusselman@mpsomaha.org or call the Guidance Office at 402-715-6015. STUDENT PARKING This is a reminder that Millard West offers campus parking for a yearly fee of $35. For this fee students are issued a parking decal and can park in student parking areas on campus. The student must provide a parking registration form signed by a parent and the student. Only the vehicle with a valid parking decal can use student parking areas. Students with a valid parking decal are free to drive another vehicle to school, but this vehicle must be registered in the attendance office on a daily basis. Students can purchase a second decal for $5. Purchasing a parking decal does not guarantee a parking space in the school parking lot. Please feel free to contact Stacy Longacre at 402-715-6006 if you have any questions regarding parking procedures. Money generated by the sale of parking decals is used to provide an outside security person to maintain the safety of student and staff vehicles. Millard West has a very low rate of damage or theft in student parking areas and the outside security plays a large role in this. VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! Every term, the students in the Oral Communications classes (Speech, Debate and Forensics) go through a Mock Job Interview. For this project, we need anywhere between 2530 community members to come in and interview the students. If interested, please contact Jennifer Jerome at jmjerome@mpsomaha.org DONATE YOUR OLD LAPTOP, TABLET, ANDROID OR APPLE DEVICE Do you have an old laptop tablet or android or apple device lying around that you no longer? Consider donating it to our computer science classes. They are in need of old laptops and other devices (do not need to be in working order) for a computer rebuilding project. You can remove the hard-drive before donating if you would like. Please bring them to the Administration Office to donate. Thank you! SCHOOL LUNCH ACCOUNTS

ATTENDANCE OFFICE INFORMATION CLIP AND SAVE
Attendance 402-715-6010 (Use this number to report absences, call students in late, appointments, or phone messages) Guidance & Pupil Services 402-715-6015 Activities 402-715-6025 Millard West Main Number 402-715-6000 DAILY ATTENDANCE & TARDIES Parents and students are reminded that classes begin at 8:45 a.m. each Monday morning and at 8:00 a.m. Tuesday through Friday during the year. Students are recommended to follow a morning routine that allows them to arrive at school at least 15 minutes before class begins. This arrival time allows adequate time to socialize, organize school materials, and report to class a few minutes early. On a daily basis, many of our late students enter the building from 1 to 10 minutes late. Students leaving the house 15 to 20 minutes earlier can easily eliminate this problem. Students send a positive message to their teachers and don’t miss valuable learning time when present in class on time each day. Thank you to those students who are on time for class every day. This is one of those seemingly little things in life that can make a big difference. REPORTING ABSENCES If a student is absent from school, a parent/guardian should call the Attendance Office at 402-715-6010 or 402-715-6011 the same day to report the absence. Parents/guardians are expected to call each day the student is absent from school unless other arrangements have been made with the Attendance Office. A phone call will be adequate notice of the student’s absence from school. Handwritten notes will not be accepted by the Attendance Office to report an absence.
A SPECIAL NOTE FROM THE ATTENDANCE OFFICE Being responsible for tracking the attendance of over 2400 students daily is a huge job. As a result, the Millard West Attendance Office is an extremely busy place between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. The attendance secretaries have a wide variety of responsibilities during the school day and each works very hard to serve the Millard West community. Incoming phone calls to the Attendance Office are numerous during the school day. We fully understand the need for parents to contact the Attendance Office to communicate about students needing to leave school for medical appointments, family emergencies, or other appointments. Coordinating these phone calls and providing necessary passes to students consumes an extensive amount of staff time. Please reserve your phone calls to necessary appointments and other Attendance Office business. Much too frequently our phone lines and staff time are tied up with calls requesting students to be dismissed to leave campus for lunch or to be dismissed from attendance at study hall. Millard School Board Policy states that students in grades 9 through 11 are expected to be in school all day. This group of students does not have open campus privileges and can’t be dismissed for lunch or study hall. We are asking you as parents not to make these type of calls. They consume valuable time of our Attendance Office staff. Thank you for your help with this matter. Your students will be seniors before you know it and will have earned the privilege of open campus. 19
TARDY RULES A student will be assigned to Tuesday/Thursday school when late to a class or Quality Time 6 times. Additional tardiness will result in disciplinary action including but not limited to Tuesday/Thursday School, suspension, removal from class with a grade of 5. Students arriving more than 20 minutes late for class will be recorded as excessively tardy (ET) and subject to disciplinary action. CELL PHONES/PERSONAL TECHNOLOGY DEVICES Student use of cell phones/personal technology devices is permitted during passing periods and in the cafeteria during lunch. Students will not be permitted to use cell phones/ technology devices in school classrooms for non-educational purposes (texting, taking pictures, accessing Facebook, playing games, etc.). A classroom teacher may permit use of cell phones/devices during class/quality time for instructional purposes only.
Any student use of a cell phone/technology device which disrupts a classroom can be cause for teacher confiscation of the item. The confiscated phone/device may be either returned by the teacher or given to a school administrator at the end of the class period. Failure to give the phone/device to any staff member upon request will be considered insubordination resulting in disciplinary action. Multiple infractions of classroom disruption involving a cell phone/device will result in escalated consequences. STUDENT HANDBOOK During the first week of the new school year all students were issued a copy of the 2014-2015 Millard West Student Handbook. The handbook includes information specific to Millard West along with the Millard Public Schools Standards for Student Conduct. The Standards for Student Conduct apply to all Millard Public School students. Parents are urged to review the student handbook with students. It is important for both parents and students to know the contents of the Code of Conduct. Please take the time to read through and discuss this document with your student(s). DRESS CODE It is important for students and parents to be aware of Millard West dress restrictions. Tanktops (without t-shirt underneath), halter tops, spaghetti strap tops, mesh clothing, and other such revealing clothing is not acceptable for school. As a simple reference, shirts or blouses worn to school must completely cover the back and stomach of the student. Any garment should also have sleeves completely covering both shoulders. Excessively short skirts and shorts are not permitted to be worn in the school building. T-shirt manufacturers continue to develop clothing inappropriate for the school setting. Noted below are examples of T-shirt messages, statements, illustrations, etc., not acceptable to be worn at Millard West. Vulgar or offensive messages. Sexually explicit or sexual innuendo (inferences). Demeaning or derogatory statements related to individuals or groups of persons (racial, ethnic,sexual orientation, etc). Promotion of drugs, tobacco, alcohol. Promotion of violence, weapons, aggression, etc. We know that parents and students will demonstrate good judgment while shopping for school clothes. The Millard West student body is expected to enter the school building each day “dressed to learn”. Please expect students to be confronted by a staff member if their dress is judged to be inappropriate. Millard West is a place of learning and appropriate school dress does make a positive difference.
