iPad Policy
Just a reminder that for the next school year (2020-21) when 6th & 7th grade students are on campus, there will be an iPad cart available for them. Please do not allow them to bring their personal devices to campus. If you want one for the home we certainly understand. Here are the iPad purchasing recommendations from our tech team.

School Supply Kits
Make plans now to order your child's school supply kit for next school year. Portal for ordering will be available from Thursday, May 14th through Friday, June 5th!
Our Silverdale PTF has organized this time-saving opportunity for our upcoming K-8th grade families. This is optional, however most families participate because of the convenience of having the school supplies waiting in the classroom when school begins in August.
Steps to order, beginning May 14th (orders accepted online only):
- Visit: www.shopttkits.com
- Enter School Code: 61176
- Choose the grade level your child will be entering in the Fall
- Complete the order instructions and payment
For questions regarding school supply kits, please contact our PTF representative Mandy Greene: mandyg@gtgtruck.com
Attention current 8th graders:
Workouts and practices for High School Sports will begin as soon as possible. If your child is interested in playing or trying out for one of these sports and you have not made contact with the coach, please send an email with your contact information to make sure you are included on the most up-to-date practice details.

Summer Camps
On the topic of Silverdale Summer Camps, we are aligning ourselves with the May 6, 2020 Hamilton County Health Department press release which references Governor Bill Lee's Executive Order 30 as grounds for prohibiting day camps until further notice. We remain optimistic that the young people of our city will be able to enjoy the Silverdale Summer Camps experience soon enough and hope that you will join us in that optimism! Until then, please direct all questions and concerns to summercamps@silverdaleba.org. Remember: we are all in this together! #WeAreSilverdale
Registration for Silverdale Summer Camps 2020 is open! Our camps offer opportunities for discovery and growth in academics, athletics, the arts, and of course, the outdoors. There's a little something for everyone. We've added some new camps this year, so you're going to want to check it out. Grab a friend and register now. It's going to be a great summer!
