Clemens Counselor Connection
Welcome to School Year 2021-2022!
Welcome to the new school year!
Hello Buff Students and Families!
Welcome to the 2021-2022 school year! We hope that you were able to rest and relax as we get ready to start a new school year. We have put together some helpful information and resources that you may want to keep handy.
Please take note of the link on the Counselor website for schedule changes requests. All requests must be sent through the Google form as we are not accepting any through email. Additionally, we will not be accepting requests for teacher changes or lunch period changes. The deadline to submit a request is August 25.
Counselors are available to speak with students and parents about concerns they have. We encourage students and parents to submit an appointment request through our website. This ensures that counselors have time set aside to meet with students and/or parents.
We are excited about this school year and look forward to working with you all! Keep an eye on our social media accounts for important dates and info throughout the year.
Best wishes for a great year!

My School Bucks- This is the system where you pay for any school related fees and purchases. This includes adding funds to your student's lunch account.
Buying a yearbook? Go to My School Bucks! Want a new class t-shirt? Go to My School Bucks. Create an account using your own information, link your students, and voila! You're set for years to come!

Free and Reduced Lunch Application- This is important for MANY reasons! First, with all the changes we have experienced in our economy and economic situations, we advise all families to apply for free/reduced lunch. This is a simple, online form that is available in English and Spanish to determine if your student can get lunch for free or for a reduced rate. This can save families a lot of money over the course of the school year. You can apply any time, but you do need to reapply every school year even if you were qualified the previous year. Additionally, your student can be eligible for fee waivers for college entrance exams, college applications, scholarships, and additional government funds for their education after high school. If you have many children in the family, you only need to apply one time and add all children to the same application. Our Child Nutrition office can answer questions for you and assist you further if needed. The application opens for this school year in August.

School Website- Much of the information we share throughout the school year can be found on our campus website. We send a lot of the same information via email through a system called Blackboard. Be sure to check your spam/junk folder for information from us as it is often filtered out of your inbox.
