Dear Students and Parents:
Welcome to the South Camden Alternative School (SCAS). We look forward to a new school year and a new beginning. We recognize that each student is an individual with unique needs and learning styles. The dramatic growth changes we observe in our students require South Camden Alternative School to: 1) provide a supportive, positive and nurturing environment that includes an innovative curriculum, counseling and social skills that are integral parts of every day learning; 2) to ensure that every student develops the necessary academic and social skills that are needed to return to their regular school and be successful; and 3) to provide a school climate where students and staff can feel safe.
As a middle school student, you are in an age group that is both intriguing and complex. You are at an age where you are experiencing biological, physical, social and behavioral changes. However, good things can happen if you make them happen. We encourage students to develop good study habits, participate in class and school activities and show respect to all individuals.
The faculty and staff hope you enjoy your stay at the South Camden Alternative School. I encourage you to read the information in this handbook. It will assist you in making this school year a terrific year. You owe it to yourself to do your very best.
HAVE A GREAT YEAR!
Sincerely,
Mary Edwards-Andrews, Ed. D. Principal
