Letter from Head of Middle School Regarding Math Packets 2025-26

The School’s guidelines for student dress are not meant to be oppressive or to stifle individual expression. Instead, they are designed to ensure that students will dress appropriately for school. Just as parents’ work clothing may or may not be interchangeable with their “dress up” or recreational wardrobes, so students’ closets may contain items which are not appropriate for school. For example, students may not wear to school t-shirts that bear inappropriate or harassing slogans or that advertise drugs, cigarettes, or alcohol. When questions arise regarding appropriate dress, the faculty and administration will make the final decision as to what is proper/acceptable student attire. Other clothing questions, which arise each year as fashions change, will be answered in light of whether the clothing or accessories in question affect the School community and classroom environment.

Infractions of the dress code will be dealt with by the faculty and administration. If a student violates this policy, the student may be asked to wear appropriate clothing provided by the school over their own clothes or parents may be asked to bring appropriate clothing to school before the student will be admitted to class. Repeated violations may result in the student serving an afterschool detention or being sent home.

At Seven Hills, we believe athletics play a vital role in shaping well-rounded student-athletes who grow not only in skill but also in teamwork, resilience, and sportsmanship.

Our athletics program follows a no-cut policy, ensuring that every student has the opportunity to participate, compete, and grow alongside their peers. We encourage all students to take advantage of our wide range of sports offerings, whether they are trying a new sport for the first time or continuing to develop their skills in a familiar one. Our goal is to foster a love for athletics while building a strong, supportive community.
 

If you have any questions, our Interim Athletic Director Brandon Williams can be reached at Brandon.Williams@7hills.org. Youth Athletic Programs (grades 1-6) are coordinated by Marty Gerhardt, Abbey Sir Louis, and Lindsey Steuer and can be reached at k6athletics@7hills.org.  

We can’t wait to see you on the field, court, pool, gym, or in the stands. Go Stingers!
