On Friday February 20th from 6:00pm to 8:00pm (with final entry at 6:30 PM for students arriving late), we will be having our second Activity Night of the school year! Activity nights help students to build positive connections to peers and the school- helping to increase student achievement.
What is there to do at the Activity Night?
This activity night will consist of a dance in the large gym, open gym in the small gym, a movie room, a game room, and a hang out in the lobby.
How much does it cost?
Wristbands will be sold during the school day on Wednesday and Thursday before the dance for $4, or students can pay $5 at the door. As always, no student will be excluded due to inability to pay, please contact Stephanie in the office if this is a hardship for your family. Our Kindness Fundraiser provides the assistance funding for students.
Who can attend?
Activity Nights are for Spencer Butte students only. Students need to be present at school for at least half the day to attend, unless prior arrangements have been made with administration.
Will there be food there?
There will be light concessions available to purchase.
When does it dance start and end?
This activity night starts at 6:00pm and ends at 8:00 pm.
Can students enter and leave and enter again?
No.
Can students leave early?
If a student wishes to leave prior to the end of the dance, they may do so as long as a parent/guardian picks them up. If your student is leaving early with another parent, we will need individual parent permission for each student. This is most easily achieved with a note from a parent that can be given to staff at the dance.
Verifying permission to leave early or with non-custodial adults often causes a delay for students who are wanting to leave quickly, so we appreciate students staying until the end of the dance if possible. Additionally, we usually have a wave of students wanting to leave 15-30 minutes early. Verifying that early departure is permitted does take staff away from other supervision- so we would appreciate students waiting to be released at the end the dance if they are looking to leave 15-30 minutes early.
Do the school expectations still apply after school?
Yes. This is a school function so it falls under the same expectations of Spencer Butte Middle School and the 4J school district. We recognize our students’ need for fun and we appreciate your partnership in providing a safe environment for our students.
Can parents and guardians volunteer?
SBMS activity nights are a fantastic way for students to connect with one another in a fun way! We host a game room, open gym, movie room, dance hall, snack bar, and lobby hang-out. Giving students a variety of supervised choices takes help and we would love to have you join us. There is no set-up and no clean-up on your part! Chaperones come at 5:45 to get signed in and find their station, and they leave right after the dance!
