Stokes Early College High School
First Five School Days
August 11 - 15, 2025
Welcome Falcons,
Student Schedules will be given out at Open House. Bring those with you on the first day of school, Aug 11. If you have schedule questions, email or see Ms. Spargo or Mrs. Kidd.
PowerSchool is gone and being replaced by Infinite Campus. Details regarding Parent & Student access will be announced as we are made aware of them.
Chromebook Agreement Forms - Pick Up one if you want a school-issued Chromebook. Chromebooks will be issued the first couple of days once the Agreement Form is returned and the $27.00 Technology Fee is paid.
Free/Reduced Lunch Form - Student meals are $1.50 for Breakfast and $3 for lunch. Please complete the Free/Reduced Lunch Form if you think you may qualify. This also helps the school district receive funding and helps you to qualify for other possible benefits. You may complete online through the district website or get a paper form.
Report to 1st period each morning and follow the regular schedule. Check website for times.

Student Drivers
High School students must park in the high school lot by A Building
In accordance with Stokes County Schools Policy, student driver’s must complete the “It’s My Call” Form, pay $5.50, and are subject to random drug screening (See the SCS Handbook for details).
Student Drivers will be assigned a parking space and must complete the form and payment during the first week or two.
Student Drivers who wish to leave campus during Free/Study Periods must complete an “Off Campus Permission Form.” Pick up from the office or print one from the school website (under Student Information and Handbooks, Forms, Documents
Student Drivers may pick up required forms from the office.
We will not be assigning parking spots until a few days after school starts, so until then just park anywhere in the student lot.
Bus Riders
Hopefully you will meet with drivers during Open House to get an idea about morning bus times. Please be patient with us as drivers learn their new routes over the first several days. Several students always change their minds about whether they are riding or not, so it is difficult to get into a routine over the first week or so. Remember that routes can sometimes be a little long and we apologize for that. We thank you in advance.
College Class Period(s)
College Classes begin on Monday, August 18, 2025. We will only have high school classes during the first five school days.
Students will have information sessions during their “Free/Study Period” during the first five days. The schedule is below.
Students who have mostly College Classes are asked to attend one of the sessions on the day that is assigned for your grade level. Drivers may either come in late or leave early if you bring a note or have completed the Off Campus Permission Form (see above for details).
