Activities Policy
At Sky View High School we believe that participation in extra curricular activities are an important part of a student’s overall educational experience. We want students to perform well both inside and outside the classroom. The following minimum guidelines apply to all UHSAA activities and is the recommended for all extra-curricular activities at Sky View High School including clubs, organizations, etc. Coaches and advisors have the option to increase these requirements if approved with the administration and well published.
Attendance
All Sky View High School students participating in events sponsored by the Utah High School Activities Association must maintain 90% attendance and have fewer than 10% tardies (excluding school excused) to remain eligible to participate. If a student falls below 90% attendance or has more than 10% tardies at any given time during a trimester in which they are participating, they will be placed on probation.
Academics
To be eligible to participate in events sponsored by the Utah High School Activities Association, a student must maintain a 2.0 GPA and receive no more than one failing grades or two No Grade (NG) in the preceding trimester in which the student is participating. If a student is receiving more than one failing grade at any time during a trimester in which they are participating, they will be placed on probation.
Fees
ALL School Fees (i.e., registration, extra-curricular, class fees) must be paid in full for a student to be eligible to participate in extra-curricular activities (UHSAA, Organizations, Associations, Curricular Clubs, etc.). Fees must be current for a student to try-out for an activity. Fees for an activity are due once the student has been selected as a participant. The only exceptions are for those students who are on fee waiver or who have prior, documented administrative approval. Students must be current on any prearranged payment plans.
Probation
Probation means, the student will miss the next scheduled game, or event and all subsequent events until they are released from probation. A student is released from probation when the student has met the eligibility requirements set forth in the preceding paragraphs.
Truancy
Truant behavior will not be tolerated. Following are the minimum consequences for truant behavior. 26 Truant behavior is anytime a student leaves home for school, but does not arrive; comes to school, but does not attend; leaves school without checking out properly; or obtains permission to go to a certain place, but does not report there. If a student is found by a law enforcement officer or school official to be “truant”, at any time, the student may be issued a truancy citation or the absence may be logged as truant in PowerSchool. A truancy citation or logged truancy for a student participating in UHSAA activities results in the following:
1. The first violation will result in suspension for eligibility for one week.
2. The second violation will result in suspension of eligibility for one trimester.
Appeal
Students may appeal probation or eligibility decisions by scheduling a meeting with the Athletic Director. According to Utah High School Activities Association policy, no eligibility appeals are allowed once a grade has been posted.
Attendance Policy
Sky View High School recognizes that regular attendance greatly enhances the opportunity for student learning through instruction provided by teachers. Frequent absences from the day-today classroom experience disrupt the instructional process. The benefits of instruction, once lost, cannot entirely be regained. The entire process of education requires continuity of instruction, class participation, and study.
Utah law allows parents of students enrolled in public schools to excuse their student from school, but only when the student is absent for a legitimate or valid reason such as illness, family death or a prior approved absence due to a family activity. ALL absences MUST be verified by a parent within five school days. At Sky View, we make every effort to keep parents aware of their student’s attendance habits. The school provides:
- Online Access to Daily Attendance – A parent can track daily attendance through PowerSchool at https://powerschool.ccsdut.org
- Daily Telephone Notification – A parent will receive daily notification of absences via telephone. Please call 563-5731 if you are not receiving these phone calls to verify we have the correct phone number.
- Email Notification – You may also use PowerSchool to set-up daily or weekly email notifications for attendance.
- Mail Notification – The school notifies parents by mail if a student has accumulated more than six absences in any of their classes.
The following is a list of verified absence codes:
- Parent Verified Absence (G): A parent verified absence is defined as any absence that is excused by a parent for illness, medical appointments, family emergencies or preapproved family activities. A verified absence is coded with a (G). A parent must notify the school prior to or within five days of an absence for it to be considered verified. They may either call, email, or send a signed note to the school. Students are responsible for the completion of missed work for verified absences.
- Verified Homebound (H): Homebound services are available for illness or injury that causes absence in excess of three consecutive days. Homebound services are coded with an (H). Homebound services are coordinated through the District Homebound Coordinator. Please contact the front office at 435-563-6273 if you believe your student may need homebound services.
- Family Death (E): The death of a close friend or family member may result in absence from school. The parent should notify the school in this case. Absences that occur because of a family death are coded with an (E).
- School Activity (S), Administrator (O), or Counselor Visit (K): An absence that is due to an approved school activity is coded with an (S). Absences that are due to a visit with an administrator or counselor are coded with an (O), or a (K).
-
Excessive Verified Absences: For a student to achieve their highest level of academic achievement a student should be in school at least 90% of the time. This equates to no more than six absences per trimester per class. Excessive valid absences can impede student learning and impact the educational process. If a student’s attendance is below 90% and is seriously impacting his or her ability to learn, a school representative will make contact with the student and or parents to help resolve any issues.
-
Truancy: Truancy is any time a student is out of class without proper permission of the school or teacher and/or parent/guardian. It is a violation of state law to be absent without being excused from school. Failure to check out of school properly will result in truancy. Students who are on campus and not in their assigned area are truant.
Following is a list of unverified absence codes:
- Unverified Absences (A): An unverified absence is any absence that has not been verified by either a parent or the school. These absences are coded with an (A).
- Truancy (Z): A student is considered “truant” if the student is absent without a valid excuse. All absences are initially coded with an (A) for unverified absence. If a student absence is not verified within five school days, a student is considered truant and the code is changed to a (Z) for truancy. Truant absences can impact the student’s grades and eligibility for extra-curricular activities.
Habitual Truancy & Legal Consequences
If a student continues to miss school without a valid excuse, they are considered habitually truant. In accordance with State Law, Sky View has established the following procedures for dealing with habitually truant behavior.
- A student who has five days with at least one or more truancy is placed on a “Truancy Watch List”. A student conference is held where the importance of good attendance is reviewed, the attendance policy is explained, and parents are notified by letter and/or by phone. The student may also be referred to a school counselor or other staff for support.
- If a student accumulates five additional days with at least one or more truancy (10 Total), contact is made with parents and a parent meeting is called in an effort to resolve truancy issues.
- If a student accumulates five additional days with at least one truant absence (15 Total), a “Notice of Truancy” is sent home and a meeting with peer court is arranged.
- If the student accumulates five additional days (20 total since the student conference), a “Habitual Court Referral” is sent to the Cache County School Board and to the parent. The Cache County School Board determines whether the student is referred to juvenile court representative.
- If the truant behavior continues, disciplinary actions may be taken to include suspension, alternative placement, or release from public education if the student is 16 years or older. * The overall goal of consequences for truant behavior is to help confront and solve issues contributing to poor attendance.
Habitual Truancy and School Consequences
No Grades (NG) If a student is truant for at least five days within any trimester, credit is withheld. Credit may be restored in the following ways:
- Peer Court – The student may appear in a peer court. The peer court consists of at least three of the student’s peers and a school administrator. Facts will be presented to the peer court and conditions for restoration will be determined. Once a student meets the agreed upon conditions, the NG will be restored to the grade the student earned in the class. Conditions can include, attendance probation, use of RoCK hour, school service, etc.
- A contract with an administrator. The contract will specify the requirements for the restoration of credit and can include requirements for good attendance in a subsequent trimester, the use of RoCK Hour, completion of an online course or other education related requirements.
- Credit Recovery – If the student fails to complete academic restoration or fails to meet the conditions of a contract or peer court, the class in question may need to be repeated to receive credit.
Graduation Ceremony
Any student who is referred to juvenile court or is eighteen years or older who has five or more days with at least one truancy in the last trimester of their senior year, may forfeit their participation in the graduation ceremony.
Appeal
Sky View High School’s attendance policy allows for a student or their parent to appeal truancies or credit loss due to extenuating circumstances. Any appeals should take place as close to the absences in question as possible as and no later than two weeks after the end of the current trimester. The process for appeal is as follows:
- Students who have received an NG or a truancy (z) and feel there were extenuating circumstances which should be considered should complete an Appeal Form and arrange an appeal conference with the Attendance Secretary or no grades will be restored.
- Parents should attach to the Appeal Form any information regarding dates and reasons for the student’s absence(s). Dissatisfaction with the Appeal Conference can be appealed to the Student Assistance Team. The Student Assistance Team will review
Shared Responsibility
Good attendance is a shared responsibility:
The Student Will:
1. Check grades and attendance weekly for accuracy and immediately report discrepancies to the attention of a teacher.
2. Ensure that a parent verifies all absences within 5 school days of returning to school.
3. Obtain prior approval for family activities or trips of more than 3 days.
4. Obtain from the teacher any missed work because of absences.
5. Check out/in at the attendance office before leaving/returning for any reason.
6. Be on time, attend class and be prepared each day.
The Parent/Guardian Will:

Tardies
Tardy (T) & Excused Tardy (Y) A tardy is defined as reporting to class after the bell to start class has sounded and within the first 10 minutes of class. A tardy can be excused by a parent when an emergency situation results in a student arriving at school late, or by the school when a student was delayed because of a school identified reason. Tardies may impact the student’s grade and excessive tardies can result in disciplinary action.
Check-Out
It is important for students to check-out through the Attendance Office before leaving school for the following reasons: (a) it gives documentation to a student to be off campus, and (b) it provides communication with the parent, student and school in case of an emergency. (Parents must call to check their students in or out.)
Check-In
Any student who arrives at school after the beginning of the school day, must check-in at the Attendance Office. If a student checks out, they must check back in.
Cell Phone Policy
Cellular Devices
Cellular devices have become an important communication tool in our society. The Cache County School Board recognizes the value of these devices but also understands if used inappropriately, they can disrupt the learning environment. As such, the school board seeks to adopt a policy of acceptable use of cellular devices at school while also creating reasonable expectations for limits. Use of a cellular device falls under the following guidelines:
- Cellular devices must be on silent while on campus and remain on silent throughout the school day.
- Cell phones are to be put away during class time unless authorized by a teacher. Teachers have the authority to allow or ban cellular device use during their respective class times. Students should never be disadvantaged or penalized in classroom settings for not having access to a cell phone.
- Considerable leniency for cellular device use will be allowed in emergency situations. However, cellular device use should not interfere with the students' ability to follow directions or adhere to safety advisement from school personnel.
- Wearable cellular devices may be worn as long as they do not create a distraction or a disruption during school hours.
- Cellular cameras and audio recorders may only be used for specific educational benefits and only with prior permission of the teacher or administrator.
- Students who choose to bring cellular devices to school do so at their own risk. The school district assumes NO LIABILITY for lost, stolen, or damaged devices.
Disciplinary Measures Failure to adhere to the guidelines above may result in disciplinary measures such as:
- Verbal warning. Student may be asked to turn off their device in the presence of the teacher and may be allowed to put it away.
- Device may be taken away until the end of the day (to be picked up by student). Offense may be logged in PowerSchool.
- Device may be taken away from the student and must be picked up by the student’s parents during school hours or after school, after consultation with a school administrator. Offense may be logged in PowerSchool.
- Student may lose the privilege to use device on district property. Offense may be logged in PowerSchool.
Use of Cellular Devices on Buses or During School Activities
- Cellular device usage by students while riding to and from school on the bus, or on the bus during school-sponsored activities is at the discretion of the bus driver and/or the student advisor/supervisor.
- Distracting behavior which creates an unsafe environment will not be tolerated.
- Cellular cameras and audio recorders may not be used on the bus.
- The District Appropriate Use Policy applies to use on buses or during school activities.
Privacy in Bathrooms, Locker Rooms, and/or Dressing Areas
- Individuals who use school district bathrooms, locker rooms and/or dressing areas have a right to a safe environment, which includes a reasonable assurance that the District will not tolerate the use of audio or visual recording devices, including a cell phone, in changing areas, rest rooms or locker rooms.to record or transfer images or recordings from these areas. In order to ensure that the privacy of all individuals is protected, the District has adopted these regulations to ensure that this right of privacy is not violated.
- When the District has reason to believe that any person has violated this prohibition regarding the transmission of pictures of persons from the bathroom, locker room and/or dressing area, or has, in any other way, violated the right of privacy within these areas, the building principal shall contact local law enforcement representatives and make the appropriate reports.
- Any person violating this policy may be subject to prosecution and face suspension and/or recommendation for expulsion.
- School officials have the right to confiscate any cellular or recording device if there is a reasonable suspicion that the cellular or recording device has been used in violation of this policy. School administrators may search the contents of that device to ensure that images have not been taken or transmitted from within the locker room and/or dressing area
Citizenship & Behavior
The Sky View Discipline Plan is based on policies and guidelines from School Board Policy. These policies have been developed by the consensus of our On-Site Committee.
Goals and Objectives
The goals and objectives of Sky View Discipline Plan are to empower all students to function effectively in the society in which they live by:
- Encouraging student’s responsibility for school attendance, punctuality, learning, and behavior.
- Encouraging student conduct that produces a proper learning community.
- Encouraging parents/guardians of all students to assume their legal responsibility for their student’s behavior and to exercise the control that encourages self-discipline and discourages behavior that is disruptive to the school’s educational programs and processes.
- Creating motivation for citizenship and support of the school rules and standards of behavior.
Student Expectations
- Students have the responsibility to maintain regular school attendance, to make a conscientious effort in classroom work, and to adhere to school rules and regulations.

Sky View will be in compliance with district policy.
Club Policy
Clubs
At Sky View High School, we believe that student clubs enhance student involvement and participation in the school. Clubs may aid students to: develop life-long skills and talents; demonstrate positive attitudes and integrity; learn the value of fair and honest competition; and, instill self-esteem. Copies of the Sky View’s Club Policy are available in the front office.
There are two types of clubs authorized by Sky View High School:
- Curricular Clubs – school sponsored that may receive leadership, direction, and support from the school or school district beyond providing a place during noninstructional time. A secondary school curricular club is a club:
- Whose subject matter is taught or will soon be taught in a regular course;
- Whose subject matter concerns a body of courses as a whole;
- In which participation is required for a particular course; or d. in which participation results in academic credit.
- Non-curricular Clubs – student initiated clubs that may be authorized and allowed school building use during non-instructional time. A non-curricular club’s meetings, ideas, and activities are not sponsored or endorsed in any way by a school governing board, the school, or by school or school district employees.
Application Procedures
Curricular Clubs – Faculty members or students proposing a curricular club shall submit a written application. Applications are available in the front office.
Non-curricular Clubs – Students proposing a non-curricular club shall submit a written application. Applications are available in the front office. Non-curricular clubs require annual authorization.
Club Membership
Curricular Clubs – Membership is limited to students who are attending Sky View High School.
Non-curricular Clubs – Membership is voluntary. Membership is limited to students who are attending Sky View High School. A minimum of three members is required for a non-curricular club. There will be no discrimination based on any legally protected category.
Club permission forms must be completed and filed in the front office.

Non curricular fees will not be receipted or accounted for by Sky View High School. Fees, and methods for their collection and administration should be outlined in club application. Fees for noncurricular clubs are not eligible for a fee waiver.
Dress Code
Purpose:
The courts, state, and federal laws, as well as Cache County School District, require an atmosphere at school which provides for a safe, orderly, and distraction-free learning environment. The following dress code policy has been designed to support such an environment. Please remember that the dress code policy applies to all students whether attending school or any school function (as participant or member of the audience).
There appears to be a close relationship between good dress and grooming habits, good work and study habits, and proper school behavior. If clothing, hair style, or personal adornment is causing a disruption in school or at any school function, appropriate disciplinary action will be taken. Disruption is defined as, but not limited to, reactions by other individuals to the clothing or adornment, which causes the teacher/administrator to lose the attention of the students, to modify or cease instructional activities, or to deal with student confrontations or complaints.
Responsibilities:
Adherence to dress and grooming standards is the responsibility of the student and his/her parents/guardians.
Enforcement of the school’s dress code and standards is the responsibility of the school administration, faculty, and staff.
Students that do not comply with a teacher’s request will be referred to the school administration for corrective action. Consequences for the violation of the dress code are listed in each school’s student handbook. Any item which violates the dress code may be confiscated and not returned to the student or parent at the discretion of the school administration or law enforcement.
All schools are expected to enforce the following guidelines. Individual schools may add to this policy with School Board approval. It is recognized that activities may arise that call for variations; therefore, exceptions to this policy may be made for special occasions only when so designated by the school administration.
The Cache County School District has established the following guidelines to aid parents and students in selecting proper school attire:
- Students should be clean and well groomed (hair, clothes, cosmetics). If safety is a factor, more stringent standards may be applied.
- Shoes or sandals must be worn at all times while on campus.
- Except for religious or medical purposes, hats, caps, and other head coverings shall not be worn or displayed inside school facilities during school hours.
- Clothes shall sufficiently cover undergarments at all times.
- See-through or net fabrics, halter-tops, off-the shoulder or low-cut tops, bare midriffs, and muscle shirts (sleeveless/bare midriff shirts) are prohibited.

- Advocate racial, ethnic, or religious prejudice
- Represent or give evidence to gang membership or affiliation
- Metal accessories that present a hazard to the health or safety of the wearer or others are prohibited on school grounds.

School Song (Hymn)
Where the mountain peaks meet the starry sky,
Where the green hills meet the blue,
Stands a place close by with its standards high,
It's our school, our own Sky View.
There's the blue and white and a golden hue
We will long remember, too.
It's a place close by, with its standards high,
It's our school, our own Sky View.
We will always say as we go our way,
And of this it can be told,
The friendships dear we have made while here
Are a treasure more than gold.
Where the mountain peaks meet the starry sky,
Where the green hills meet the blue,
Stands a place close by with its standards high,
It's our school, our own Sky View.
