Mr. Scott's Message

     Welcome to DeLand High School, parents and students. As the 9th grade assistant principal, I look forward to a magnificent school year. DeLand High is an excellent school and recently received recognition as an "A" school because of our students' performance on the Florida Comprehensive Achievement Test. We are proud of our talented, dedicated, and creative students, teachers, and parents who are part of Bulldog Country. Our main goal at DeLand High is to increase the academic achievement of all our students. Please take the time to browse through our web pages to become familiar with the information pertaining to 9th grade students and the services provided to parents. We are proud of our school's mission which is to provide a variety of learning experiences that produce citizens who are ready to face the challenges of an increasingly complex society. I hope your experience with our school will be successful and satisfying. Thank you..

Discipline Referral Process

    All 9th Grade teachers are using our 9th Grade Assertive Discipline Plan to monitor behavioral concerns within the classroom. Students will have the opportunity to correct misbehavior while in the classroom or the student will be removed from the class. Parents will be contacted by a teacher and if necessary, the student will be given a discipline referral. Once given a referral, the student must report to the 9th Grade Center. A consequence for continued misbehavior will be issued by the administrator and a parent will be contacted. Disciplinary actions included an after school detention, in-school suspension, and out of school suspension. Please feel free to contact Mr. Scott at ext. 23332 with any questions or concerns.


Weekly Progress Reports

     Weekly progress reports can be picked up in the 9th grade center between the hours of 7:15 - 3:00. Students are encouraged to use weekly progress reports as a way to keep parents informed. All teachers are willing to sign weekly progress reports on Fridays. Students must hand the progress report to their teachers prior to the start of class.
