Transportation in High School

To get to school, people either walk, drive, carpool, or take the school bus. People that live close to the school sometimes walk. Most people that have their driver's license, which you can get at 16 years old, drive or carpool with their friends or neighbors, though some choose to take the bus. Carpooling is when a group of people ride together in one car. If you drive to school, you need to get a parking permit. If you choose to take a school bus, they pick you up at either your house or a bus stop near it. The buses are yellow and here is a picture:

LockersThe lockers at Stillwater are blue and single. By single they are not stacked and not shared. Each student gets a locker assigned to them every year in September. There are lockers on both levels of the school. The lockers on the 2nd level are maroon. They are secured by a lock that opens when you enter a code that is unique to each locker. We store coats, books, lunches, snacks and school supplies in them.

Music

Stillwater Area High School is famous for our excellent music program. We can be in choir, orchestra, or band. Some people

even do more than one music course at a time! All of the different musics have multiple levels of abilities. For example, the choir

program has five separate choirs. Men can be in either the Varsity Men’s Choir(lower level) or the Concert Choir(highest level for men and women), and women can be in the Varsity Women’s

Choir(lowest level), one called Belle Chanter(high level for only women), or the Concert Choir(highest level for men and women).

Music

There are three standard orchestras in our school, and typically a student moves up one class every year, but can audition to be in a

higher orchestra. There are the Symphonic Orchestra, Varsity Orchestra, and Concert Orchestra. There is also an additional

orchestra that meets outside of school called the Con Amici Chamber Orchestra.

At our school, students are very passionate and serious about their music choices. There are also at least one small group for each music

choice that meets outside of school. The small groups are all very prestigious, taking only the best of the highest level choirs, bands, and

orchestras. We love our music!

Letter Jackets and Lettering

Lettering is when you are recognized for something that you have accomplished. An example of this is if you get a GPA (Grade-point average) higher than a 3.5, you letter. In that example, it would be considered an academic letter. You can letter in different clubs, events, and sports as well.

To letter, you have to complete a set of accomplishments in that clubs, sports, or events. These accomplishments range from just showing up to placing in a race to playing in a varsity game for 12 halves.

When you letter, you get a patch. These patches go on your letter jacket. Each patch you have then is somewhat of a symbol of things you've done. The patches' looks are usually related to what club or sport you received it in.
