Aviators,
Welcome to Valentine’s Week! Cedar Valley is filled with so many happy moments as our students spread kindness and joy by sending heartfelt Valentine’s notes. Let’s celebrate the spirit of appreciation and connection that makes our Aviator community so special!
Please make note of the following:
1. Administration Messages
Mr. Twitchell talked about putting in the effort to build the skills we need, comparing it to leveling up in video games and hitting the gym. He emphasized the importance of embracing “The Grind”—putting in the work even when it’s tough! see it in this link.
2. WIDA Testing
We’re currently in the process of administering the WIDA assessment to all students classified as MLL, ELD, or ELL. This assessment will take up most of February, and we’re committed to supporting these students throughout this state-mandated test.

3. CTE Information
Career & Technical Education (CTE) Pathways provides students with hands-on technical training to prepare for successful careers. Students gain the skills and knowledge needed to enter the workforce directly or continue their education at a technical school, two-year college, or four-year university.
At Cedar Valley High School, we offer 25 different CTE Pathways to help students explore career options and gain valuable industry experience. By participating in CTE courses, students can earn industry-recognized certifications, enhancing their employability and career prospects.
Benefits of Completing a CTE Pathway:
-
Develop skills aligned with real-world careers
-
Earn industry certifications
-
Gain insight into various career options
-
Increase job opportunities and earning potential after high school
We also offer internships for Juniors and Seniors enrolled in a CTE Pathway, providing hands-on experience in their chosen fields. Some of our Pathways even integrate General Education courses, allowing students to meet graduation requirements while preparing for their careers.
So far this year, 226 students are on track to complete a CTE Pathway!
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.
