Dear Parents,
1. Order Pictures, & School Picture Final Retake Day – October 8th:
It isn’t too late to order school pictures.
If you missed our pre-boarding launch and didn’t get your school pictures taken, we will have a makeup day Friday, October 8th.
2. National Day of Service:
20th Anniversary of September 11, 2001, Link Here
3. Club Rush:
Club rush week will be this week, August 30 to September 3. Students will see clubs that are available and have a chance to join. Parent permission forms are required for club participation and can be picked up as students enter the front of the school. If a student would like to start a club, chartering forms are available in the front office. Applications are due this Friday. Please come get one and find an advisor. If you have any questions, ask Mr. Fossat.
4. Chromebook Reminders:
-For Chromebooks to be taken home, this form needs to be signed and returned to the attendance office. Please do so if you haven’t already. You can also use this video for instructions on how to do it in Skyward.
-The open enrollment for insurance on the Chromebooks closes on September 15. The insurance is a great deal! It only costs $25 for full coverage with no deductible. Please click here for more information and to sign up.
5. Dress Code:
With the beginning of the new school year, we have seen an increase in dress code violations. The dress code is very equitable and will maintain the dignity of our students. It also is not gender-specific! Students in Academic and PE classes are required to have at least a 2-inch strap over their shoulders. It is also required to cover everything from shoulders to their mid-thigh.
Teachers/Faculty have been given a small yellow slip that they can hand to a student when students violate the dress code. This will ask the student to address their attire. If the attire is not addressed, the student will come to the office and parents may be called to bring the student different clothing if needed. Thank you for reminding your students to dress appropriately for school.
6. Jet Time:
This week’s JetTalk shares ideas about developing skills as a “next level learner”. It focuses on taking charge of your learning, honoring the struggle, and playing the long game. There are reflection questions in the video that are also in the canvas assignments for students. Feel free to watch the video and discuss it with your students. 2122 JetTalk #1.
As always, if you have any questions, feel free to reach out to [email protected]
Thank you for being a part of our Cedar Valley community!
