SLE Weekly Update October 1, 2021
We have had a great week celebrating Homecoming festivities and it has been a pleasure seeing so many of our students excited about coming to school and participating in the events that Homecoming week brings. Our student council has been working hard to plan for the dance and we have multiple groups contributing to the halftime activities at our football game this evening. We hope to see you there!

Homecoming Information
Homecoming Game
We hope to see you tonight at 7:00 PM for the Homecoming game. Please be aware that parking is limited in the junior and senior lots. If they are full when you arrive, we will have reserve officers from the Oakland County Sheriff’s Department available to help with traffic flow. We do have some reserve parking on the east side of the stadium off Johns road. Please note, after the game ends, traffic leaving the east side of the building will be left turn only from John’s Road on to 10 mile, and right turn only from parking areas on the west side of the building on to 10 mile. (student entrance). We appreciate that all spectators arriving remember to leave their backpacks, bags and outside drinks at home or in their car. Students entering the stadium will be asked to dispose of any outside beverages,
Homecoming Dance
In order to maintain the high level of expectations associated with being a South Lyon East High School student or guest, please note that all students attending SLEHS Homecoming will be expected to adhere to the student code of conduct at all times.
This includes, but is not limited to:
Appropriate dancing and attire. (Excessive “grinding” or attire that may result in inappropriate exposure are prohibited)
Adherence to school rules, including recognizing that we are a drug free, weapon free, and alcohol free school zone per Board Policy and state law.
Taking responsibility for personal items. Leaving your items unattended is done at your own risk.
Understanding that leaving the dance means that you will not be readmitted.
If a SLEHS student is bringing a guest (permission slips were turned in and approved and ticket was pre-purchased), that guest must arrive and be accompanied by the SLEHS student. The guest will not be admitted without the SLEHS student. The guest must have a student ID to provide for admittance.
If at any time during the dance students are not holding themselves to the standards of an SLEHS student, this may result in dismissal from the dance. Students in violation of Board Policy will face immediate disciplinary action.
Students should be aware that our athletic and extracurricular code of conduct applies at all times, even outside of the school day. Therefore, we want to remind students to make good choices before and after the dance and game.
REMINDER: DANCE TICKETS WILL NOT BE SOLD AT THE DOOR, YOU MUST HAVE YOUR PRE-PURCHASED TICKET FOR ADMITTANCE.

YOUTH ASSISTANCE UPDATES
SLE is fortunate to have a partnership with South Lyon Area Youth Assistance. Here are few resources they offer.
Casework-
A professional master’s level caseworker provides confidential, family-centered counseling and referral services for families with a child 16 years of age and younger who live within the South Lyon Community School District. Referrals are accepted from schools, police, parents, and others who are concerned about a child. The one-time $25 processing fee can be waived for families in need.
Tutoring Scholarships-
Scholarships are available to students that need extra academic help. Each student receives 12 sessions with a certified tutor of their choice. The family must provide proof of financial need.
Skill Building Scholarships-
SLAYA provides scholarships to low-income youth that would benefit from a positive learning experience in a specific skill such as a sport, dance, voice, musical instrument or martial arts.
Yearbooks
Yearbooks are at their lowest price of the year right now! Also, you can get up to four FREE icons with personalization if you order by midnight tonight! Please go to Jostens Yearbooks to order yours before the price goes up!

Senior Photos
Every year East offers seniors the opportunity to have their senior yearbook headshot done by Prestige Photography for just $10. This year we will be holding this event on October 13. This is NOT a mandatory event. Students will get to do a couple of poses and then choose the photo they like best for the yearbook and senior composite photo. There is no requirement to buy prints, but those are available for purchase if desired. Students must wear dressy attire (suits, shirt & tie, dresses, blouses, etc.) for the photo. Please contact Mrs. Krieger at kriegere@slcs.us to request an appointment time. Space fills very quickly!
Senior photos are due to the yearbook staff by Dec. 3, 2021. All senior headshots must have a blue background. Students should be wearing dressy attire in their photo.
