Dear Parents,
It’s impossible to believe that we are in our last week of April and May is just a few days away! It’s both a busy and an exciting time as we plan to celebrate our end-of-the-year achievements with our students. I am happy to say that we made it through one of the most challenging yet exciting years I can remember!
We are having our very first fourth quarter and I am loving the energy I feel every day at school. Thank you to our teachers, students, and parents who have worked so hard to make this year truly miraculous.
Please make note of the following:
1. Beauty and The Beast
We would like to congratulate Courtney Miller and our fine arts department for collaborating and creating one of the most praised musical productions of all time! Beauty and the Beast is something CVHS can be very proud of. We appreciate all of our parents, faculty, and staff that have shown their support to our amazingly talented students!
2. School Nurse Newsletter
Our school nurse newsletter is full of fabulous resources.
3. Summer Driver’s ED
We are accepting Summer Driver’s Ed Registrations. Please register here on the Google Form. After registration, you will be sent the range sign-up form. The range is on a first come first serve basis. If you have questions please email Mr. Roberts at [email protected] .
5. Graduation Update @ Rio Tinto Stadium
Graduation will be broadcast on YouTube and as soon as we get the link from the district, we will let you know. Our counseling department will continue to send out information to our senior parents.
Rio Tinto Stadium has asked the following:
Clear bag policy. Any bags that are not clear will not be allowed into the stadium. There will be security at the gates.
No food allowed. Only factory-sealed water bottles are allowed.
There will not be a limit to the number of guests per graduate, however, parking is somewhat limited. Graduates/Families are encouraged to limit the number of vehicles.
All guests will enter on the West side of the stadium.
No umbrellas or posters allowed – they block the view of other guests.
Laura and the graduation committee have worked so hard to make this a special day for our students and parents. We will have times and spaces set up at our school for photo opportunities for the graduates during the week leading up to graduation. We need families to do their photos in advance in order to assist with the flow of people between sessions.
6. Coaching Positions Open
We currently have a few openings posted on the district website. If you know someone who would be good for the following positions, please refer them to https://alpineschools.org/employment/
Head Swim Coach

Head Basketball Coach – Girls

7. Chromebook Return & Storage
We are thrilled to be a NextGen, One-To-One school next year. This means that we will be checking out Chromebooks for each student and will not have classroom sets. To prepare for this, we will need to place all Chromebooks in hibernation mode and store them for the summer. For this reason, your student access to Chromebooks may be limited as we approach the end of the year. Also, all Chromebooks currently checked out to students for home usage need to be checked back into Cedar Valley High School on or before May 25.
8. Substance Abuse Policy
The substance use policy has been recently updated. We have added this to our student handbook. Here is the new policy: Policy 5430- Substance Use
9. Teacher Appreciation Week, May 3-7th
Teacher Appreciation Week will be May 3-7th with lunch on May 5th! This will be at noon. We love our teachers and appreciate all they do especially in this crazy year! Parents, thank you for all your donations. have been donating to help with this and have said some very kind comments of appreciation for you all!
