Stevenson Titan Athletes could use your help! We are in the process of redesigning our fieldhouse to create a space for all athletes to work out with state-of-the-art equipment better aligned to their personal athletic goals. While the district and the school are paying for items like HVAC, lighting and flooring, the boosters are raising funds for the equipment. To make this possible we are designing a seasonal program that will highlight our athletes and the businesses that support them!
Sponsorship Opportunities
Our project aims to attract sponsors for new fieldhouse equipment. We offer five sponsorship levels with key benefits, including advertisement in the sports program. The goal is to create a sustainable program providing ongoing support and ensuring the success of our athletic programs.
Fieldhouse Equipment
The new state-of-the-art equipment will benefit all athletic programs at Stevenson. The fieldhouse can accommodate multiple teams simultaneously, fostering a sense of pride among coaches, parents, students, and staff.
How You Can Help
We need everyone's support to ensure this program's success. Here's how you can contribute:
To meet our goal to pilot our first ever program by the beginning of April, we need all sponsor requests in by April 30. Here is a link to a form that will get the process started.
For any questions or feedback, please contact the Athletic Booster Club at Stevensonathleticboosterclub@gmail.com
Thank you for your continued support!

COUNSELING UPDATES: Counseling Department website
AP EXAMS - Stevenson AP Families – Each student who plans to take and AP exam in May will need to know their College Board username and password.
Many students have been using the "auto login"/"remember my password" feature for years and may have forgotten their actual username and password.
Students should log out and attempt to log back in on their own. Students who have trouble can call College Board at 866-315-6068 for help.
Students should write down their username and password in a safe place, so it is ready for test day. Unfortunately, Stevenson staff do not have access to this information—only College Board can provide username and password recovery support.

Band
Last Friday, April 4th, The Stevenson Jazz Ensemble, represented by personnel from both Stevenson and UAIS performed at State Jazz Festival at Eisenhower HS. Representing SHS were three ensembles - Combo A, Combo B, and the Big Band.
After playing stellar performances consisting of a balanced program of both modern and traditional charts, Combo A received a Division II rating (excellent) rating, and Combo B received straight A's and a Division I (superior) rating.
The Big Band took the stage at 7:30PM and received straight Division I ratings from a panel of three judges and one clinician. This is the highest rating a band can receive.
The Stevenson Jazz Ensemble, in earning the highest rating possible, is eligible to perform at the 2025 Detroit Jazz Festival over Labor Day Weekend. Stay tuned for more information, should we decide to accept the invitation!

The Titans beat Austin Catholic on Tuesday at Sycamore Hills, led by Jake Fenwick, Tim Meister, Andrew Kotcher, and Jacob Wlodarczyk. The Titans finished the week with a win on Friday against Brother Rice at Oakland Hills, led by Fenwick, Meister, Alex Girardi, and Christian Fredericks. Great job!
Congratulations to our March/April Teachers of the Month, as voted on by the student body, Mr. Pinto and Ms. Merlo! Thanks for everything you do to be amazing teachers and mentors to our students.
Don’t forget to check out the Stevenson Athletics newsletter! It is updated each week on Monday morning.
ATTENTION – The school day ends at 2:14 p.m. Students must exit the building by 2:30 p.m. Any student who is staying after school must be under the supervision of a staff member, coach, or teacher. If practice is not immediately after school, students are expected to go home and return at their practice time. Also note that students are not allowed in the gyms at any time unless a coach or teacher is present.
No outside food or beverages are permitted, students can get lunch/breakfast from the cafeteria, school store or bring a lunch.
ATTENDANCE When a student has accumulated 11 absences* in any one class over the course of a semester, the student will be notified in a meeting with an assistant/associate principal that they have lost credit in that class and that they are placed on an attendance contract to earn the credit back. There are two parts to a contract. First, the student must pass the class with a D- or higher. Second, the student will show improvement in attendance in ALL classes. Improvement is determined on a sliding scale which allows for 1 absence for every three weeks (rounded up) left in the semester for each class.
A reminder to all students, you are required to always wear your ID badge. Not only for security reasons, but because you need to scan them at lunch! So, please make sure you are wearing your ID badge around your neck.
STUDENT DRESS CODE Students must adhere to the guidelines outlined in the student handbook.
• Indecent, tattered, or unsafe dress or footwear, or attire that calls undue attention to the wearer or has lettering or symbols that are disrespectful or derogatory are not allowed. • Beach wear, low-cut tops, tank tops, sleeveless tops, muscle shirts, see-through clothing, short skirts or shorts, pajamas, tight clothing without proper coverage and clothing exposing the shoulders or mid-section are not allowed. • Students should not wear clothing with inappropriate advertising like Playboy shirts or similar items. • Hats are not allowed in school unless explicit permission for a medical or religious reason is reached. • Knee length shorts and skirts are acceptable.
