“Soar to New Horizons” 2021-2022 School Theme
February 15, 2022
Dear CVHS Aviators,
Happy Diversity Week! We are so excited to see you all at our Parent Teacher Conference this Wednesday, February 16th! We want this to be a night to learn more about all the opportunities we have. Did you know that your student can earn their UVU associates degree while in high school? Learn to fly simulators and pass their FAA Private Pilot’s exam? We simply offer more and want your child to take advantage of all we have to offer!!!
Please make note of the following:
1. Pull Through Traffic at Pick Up and Drop Off Area Concern
With the increased number of cars dropping off and picking up students in front of the school, I am very concerned that someone will get hurt. I’m going to send out a caller tonight regarding this because it is such a concern right now.
Here are a few things we can do to make it safe:.
Please refrain from using cell phones.
Slow down. We do not need to be in a hurry. Saving 10 seconds is not worth the risk of hitting someone.
Change lanes very carefully and slowly. There are many blind spots out there.

7. Monitor Your Child’s School Issued Computer For Free
Blocksi is a tool used in many Alpine District schools to help teachers manage Chromebooks in the classroom to keep students safe and enhance the learning environment. Blocksi also has a Parent Portal that helps parents have control and information about student use of school Chromebooks while at home.
Registering and Set Up: Blocksi Parent Portal
Click on the “Register here” Enter your information to create a parent account. This includes your own email account and your student’s @alpinesd.org account. If possible, you should use the same personal email that the school has in your student record to communicate with you. This will allow the system and school to match you as a parent to your student.
