Aviators,

Welcome back!  We hope you enjoyed your much-deserved long weekend.  We are excited to be back with your students and look forward to the learning that happens at CV.

Please make note of the following:

1. Jet Fuel

Did you know our school has its very own soda shack? We’re open to the public every weekday from 2:15 PM to 7:00 PM, excluding holidays and school breaks. Jet Fuel is located at 1389 Aviator Ave, Eagle Mountain, UT 84005, on the north end of the football stadium. Look for the building with “Aim High” proudly displayed on it.

Jet Fuel Soda Shack is a student-run business where students work to help pay off their extracurricular fees, making it a meaningful and impactful part of our community. Jet Fuel offers affordable options for everyone. And it’s not just for students—our doors are open to the entire community, so stop by and enjoy a drink or a treat!

For those on the go, we offer a convenient drive-thru where you can quickly grab your favorite drinks. We serve a variety of sodas with customizable add-ins to suit your taste, along with our famous homemade cookies—a treat you won’t want to miss.

Follow us on Instagram at @Jetfuel_cvhs to stay updated on new menu items, special announcements, and everything happening at Jet Fuel Soda Shack.

Thank you for supporting our student-run business. We look forward to serving you soon!

2. Free Spring ACT Prep Class

From February 24th through March 10th, we will be offering free Spring ACT Prep classes to help students prepare for this important exam. While the exact class times are still being finalized, we encourage you to mark these dates on your calendar now.

This is an incredible opportunity for students to improve their ACT scores, which can open doors to college admissions, scholarships, and other academic opportunities. A higher ACT score can also qualify students for higher level courses saving tuition for lower level classes.

More information about the classes will be shared soon. In the meantime, please reach out to Mr. Christensen if you have any questions. Don’t miss out on this chance to invest in your future!

3. MTECH

Fall 2025 registration for all term programs opens on April 16, 2025. Registration opens promptly at 8:00 AM online in the Student Portal and is a first-come, first-served process.

Students planning to register for their program on April 16 must first apply to MTECH, take or waive the entrance assessment, and complete any program-specific prerequisites. We recommend students complete these steps well before the registration date.

To simplify the process, all these steps and requirements can be found on each program page.

Finally, please note that students must register with their high school AND MTECH. Students are not enrolled in a program if they only mark attending MTECH on their high school schedule.

4. District Calendar Survey

Please take the district’s calendar survey The survey closes today at 5 pm on January 21.

5. UVU Stronger Families

Utah Valley University offers a free relationship course called, “The Stronger Families Project.” The entire family attends one evening a week for 8 weeks from 6:30-8:00 p.m. Family members learn skills to utilize at home including problem-solving, conflict resolution, interpersonal relationships, family values, and communication. Courses will be offered at American Fork Junior and on the UVU campus in Orem. The registration period for the spring session is for the next 3 weeks only, so time is limited.

Greetings, Aviators!

Welcome back to a crisp Monday! Here are some important updates:

1. Please Take Advantage of An Associate’s Degree From UVU At CVHS

We are proud to offer two exceptional associate degree programs on campus through our partnership with UVU Concurrent Enrollment: one in General Education and another in Aviation Science. These programs provide a unique opportunity for your student(s) to save thousands of dollars while jumpstarting their college education.

To take full advantage of these programs, we encourage you to work with your counselors to create a personalized enrollment plan. Typically, students begin with honors-level courses during their freshman year and then focus on completing the majority of their concurrent enrollment classes in their junior and senior years.

Take the first step toward a brighter future—plan and make the most of this incredible opportunity!

Concurrent Enrollment is a Utah Valley University program that is sponsored by the state of Utah. It offers college courses to high school students at a reduced cost. Courses can be taken at CVHS, virtually from a UVU instructor, or completely online.  Participation in the program creates a permanent college transcript. To participate you must:

2. UVU Concurrent Enrollment Deadline

Utah Valley University’s concurrent enrollment deadline is January 23, 2025. All students in concurrent enrollment classes for 2nd semester need to register for classes by this date.  Remember, if you aren’t already a UVU student you have to enroll first and then you will need to wait a few days for the enrollment process.

3.  Seal of Biliteracy

Do you speak another language other than English? Consider earning the Seal of Biliteracy. Contact Wayne Calhoon (waynecalhoon@alpinedistrict.org) for details. Link here for more information.

Parents and Senior students, CVHS will host our FAFSA night on January 14th from 5:30 to 8 in our library. If you are unaware of what the FAFSA is, please follow this link for more information. We encourage all of you to set up an account and apply for FAFSA as soon as possible!

This process will run much smoother for everyone if you can start your FAFSA application before our FAFSA night is held. Because this can be confusing and/or intimidating we have attached a couple of slides that will walk you through the process of starting an account. Once you have created your account, or if you already have an account, you can then look at the slides by clicking this link which will give you a step-by-step process of filling out your application. To support our efforts in helping you with the FAFSA completion, we are announcing the rollout of two exciting new tools:

  1. New Chatbot for Financial Aid Questions – Housed on our Admit Utah webpage, this tool will provide students and families with real-time assistance, helping them navigate the FAFSA process and answer questions anytime.

  2. New YouTube Video Resources – We’ve recorded a series of easy-to-follow videos designed to simplify the FAFSA process and answer the most common questions we receive, making it more accessible and less daunting.

Please feel free to email Mr. Peck with any additional questions you may encounter.

5. University of Utah High School Conferences and Tours 

We are excited to invite you to join us on an upcoming College Tour of the University of Utah on January 30th! This tour is a great opportunity to explore the campus, discover academic programs, learn about student life, and experience college life firsthand.

Throughout the tour, you will have the chance to meet current students, ask questions, and get a deeper understanding of the academic and extracurricular opportunities available at The U.

Remarkable things are unfolding within the classrooms at CVHS every day, and your child’s consistent attendance plays a crucial role in their success.

Please make a note of the following:

1. Administration Messages

If you did not have a chance to watch our last week of December’s message, this video shows the $200,000.00 opportunity for your student at CV!

2. Reminder: Class Changes for Semester 2- (Terms 3 & 4)

5. Parent Support Information

Just a reminder that you can monitor your student’s progress on Canvas and Skyward. This is very important to do each week.  Skyward and Canvas take a little time to sink accurately, so it’s important to check both often.

Go to Canvas and look for an “observer parent account” that your student will need to give parent permission to observe by giving you a code—link Here for more information.

In addition, please check Skyward weekly for unexcused absences  I recommend withholding weekend privileges for students failing classes.  It works!

Monday, December 2, 2024

I hope you all enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend! As we move forward, we have just three short weeks to finish Term 2 strong.  Please make note of the following:

  1. Finish Term 2 Strong Parent Support

Parents, please take a moment to review your student’s missing assignments in Skyward. Turning in assignments on time helps eliminate the common “My teacher hasn’t graded it yet” excuse for assignments showing a zero. While it’s true that late assignments may take a few days to be graded, timely submissions are typically processed much faster.

For parents of seniors, please keep a close eye on your child’s progress. Senior burnout is a real challenge, and the last thing we want is for a senior with “senioritis” to risk not qualifying for graduation at the last minute.

  1. Parents and Pizza Homework Event Dec. 3rd and Dec. 10th

We are holding a study group after school on Tuesday, Dec. 3rd from 2:30-4:30 pm and Tuesday, Dec. 10th from 2:30-4:30 pm.  Teachers and student tutors will be available to assist students with their homework.  This will be a great opportunity for your students to catch up on any assignments before our term ends on December 20, 2024.

We have had several parents not receive attendance phone calls from the school because their student makes changes to their parent’s cell phone settings to block the school from calling.  When the school number is blocked, the school will not be able to contact you through school phones for reasons other than attendance (i.e. safety, emergencies, discipline, phone conferences…etc).  Please check your block list for these numbers;

  • Main Office: 801-610-8825
  • Attendance Office: 801-610-8827
  • Counseling Office: 801-610-8826 

The basics of checking:

  • Android: Open the phone app, tap the three dots, select Settings, and then Block numbers.

  1. Compulsory Education & Attendance

Regular attendance is so important for your student’s success—not just academically, but in building strong life skills too. Utah State law (Utah Code §53G-6-202) requires parents to ensure their students attend school regularly and arrive on time.

A Few Things to Keep in Mind:

  • Let Us Know: If your student will be absent, please notify the school. Communication is key!
  • When to Stay Home: Students should only stay home if they’re sick. In some cases, we may ask for medical documentation to excuse an absence.
  • We’re Watching Attendance: Schools are required to monitor attendance and will reach out if a pattern of non-attendance starts to develop.
  • On-Time Matters: Starting the day on time sets the tone for success. Help your student be punctual—it makes a difference!

When we work together, we can ensure every Aviator gets the best chance to soar. If you have any questions about attendance or truancy, don’t hesitate to contact our attendance office or one of our administrators.

For more ideas and tips, check out Attendance Works, a great resource for families and schools:

  • Attendance Works Home Page
  • Attendance Works Resources for Parents
  • Attendance Works Resources for Schools

Thanks for helping us create a strong learning environment for every student, every day.

Regular school attendance is mandated by state law (Utah Code §53G-6-202)   For any questions regarding attendance or truancy, please contact our attendance office or your administrator.

Attendance Works is a national and state initiative that promotes better policy and practice around school attendance, promotes tracking chronic absence data for each student, and partners with families and community agencies to intervene when poor attendance is a problem for students or schools.  Click the link below:

  1. Title IX Survey 

Alpine School District is dedicated to creating positive learning environments that meet students’ academic, social, and emotional needs. To support this, employees, parents, and students in grades 3-12 will take an anonymous Title IX Sexual Harassment Survey. These surveys will help Alpine School District identify areas for improvement in our response to reports of sexual harassment and discrimination. This anonymous survey is required of Alpine School District by the Office of Civil Rights (OCR), and has been carefully designed to be age-appropriate for each grade level while meeting the requirements of the OCR.

This communication is to inform you that our school will be participating in the Title IX Sexual Harassment Survey next Monday, December 9, 2024.

Who will take the survey?

  • Students in grades 3-6: Only those whose parents have opted in via Skyward will participate.
  • Students in grades 7-12: Only those whose parents have opted in via Skyward will participate.

What will happen during the survey?

  • Grades 3-6: Students will complete the survey at home with a parent or guardian. On December 3, 2024, parents/guardians will receive an email with links to both the student and parent surveys.
  • Grades 7-12: Students will complete the survey at school between December 3-13, 2024, during a time set by their school’s administration. Parents/guardians will be notified of the date and time beforehand. The survey will be emailed to students and completed during the designated date and time.
