Aviators,
Only two Fridays left! Finish strong and remember, it is never too late to help our kiddos learn. Please work with your students so they can continue learning up to the last day of school.
Please make note of the following:
1. Senior Chromebook Returns
Seniors will be returning or buying back their Chromebooks on Chromebook Return Day, May 16th in the main gym during school hours. The purchase price for the Chromebook is $30 and payable by cash or card. All seniors must bring their Chromebook to Chromebook Return Day regardless of whether they purchase it or not or a fine will be assessed. Seniors will be called out of class by Alphabet starting at 8:00 am.
2. 3rd Quarter Reward Top Gun – Maverick Award Event!
In an effort to recognize our amazing students we will be holding another Top Gun Maverick movie award event on May 18th for the 3rd quarter. We are the Aviators and will never tire of this amazing movie!
Student Qualifications:
Those with less than 5 Days worth of excused absences for the semester and
Those with less than 5 Unexcused absences for the semester and
Those with less than 5 tardies and
Those with no discipline actions
Students will be excused from their classwork for that day and will be watching Top Gun – Maverick in the auditorium. We will have popcorn, drinks, candy, etc. Watch for individual student invitations. You must have them to enter the movie.
3. Senior Dinner Dance
Thursday, May 18th 6:00 pm at the Provo Library. Tickets can be purchased through myschoolfees.com
4. Yearbook
We only have about 80 yearbooks left and that they will sell out. $85 at the finance office or on My school fees.
5. ACE Awards Wed. May 17, 2023 at 6pm in the Auditorium
Seniors & Parents this is the evening where we recognize the academic achievements, specifically academic scholarships, awarded to our senior Aviators. Come help us honor and recognize our outstanding seniors. Refreshments to follow.
6. UVU Concurrent Enrollment
Students that are planning on doing UVU Concurrent Enrollment classes next school year can register as a student and enroll in your classes at UVU right now. Please follow these instructions. Please get enrolled early! This will save you thousands of dollars in tuition, books, etc. If you don’t know much about it, please visit your child’s counselor. This will save thousands of college expenses! Best way to earn an associate’s degree right here at CVHS!
7. Summer School
This year we will be offering Summer School at Cedar Valley High School for students who need to make up credit for failed classes. This will be offered June 12th – June 30th from 8:00 AM -2:30 PM. There is a flat fee of $25 for one or more classes. We will be offering three sessions each day. Each session offers .25 credits making it possible for students to earn up to .75 credits. In order to help our students be successful, we are requiring mandatory attendance for the full three weeks so please plan accordingly.
In addition to regular classes, we are also offering CRAM classes for English, Math, Science and Social Studies. This is solely for students who failed these classes with a 50% grade or higher this school year. Students attend starting June 12th and finish the material left from their previously failed class in order to reach the passing percentage. This is different from regular makeup classes in that they don’t have to complete the whole quarter’s worth of credit, just the missing requirements. Once students reach the passing threshold they are not required to attend class after they pass the class. We hope this will help a lot of our students!
Please pay $25 to the finance office and bring the receipt to your counselor.
8. Minimal Day for Graduation, May 25, 2023
On May 25th, We will have a Minimal Day so we can get everyone to the graduation ceremony on time.
Here is the bell schedule:
1st Period 7:45 8:25
2nd Period 8:30 9:10
3rd Period 9:15 9:55
4th Period 10:00 10:40
Lunch 10:40 11:15
Bussing will be different on Miminal Day, May 25. Because not all schools will be on a Minimal Day, it will be a challenge for transportation to run as usual because they will be transporting other students on a regular bell schedule for their school. We really appreciate ASD Transportation helping Cedar Valley Students get to and from school with this unusual request.
Here is the rundown of what transportation discussed with me:
Transportation will drop off students as normal on that Thursday, May 25.
Students will remain in school until 11:15, at which time our 3 SpEd buses and 6 of the RegEd buses will return to take students home.
SpEd students will be transported to their homes. Please make sure a parent or guardian is home to care for your student. Additionally, if a driver takes a SpEd student home and no one is there to collect him/her, the student will be returned to the school.
RegEd students will be taken to an area drop-off location, not their regular bus stop. Area drops will be localized in a way that will allow students to walk home from the stop. It may require them to walk further than normal, but they should not have to walk more than the state regulation of 1.5 miles to/from home and the bus stop.
Transportation will create a map showing where the area drops will be located.
9. Last Day of School
The last day of school will be shortened from 8:00- 9:15.
10. School Lunch Adjustments
We have had issues with some of the food orders district wide, so the lunch menu options may differ each day. If you have any questions, please feel free to email our lunch manager Racquel Dastrup.
11. School Safety
As you may be aware, the nation is experiencing more and more school hoax threats. We take student safety seriously and would like to remind our students and parents that District Policy 5182 restricts dangerous weapons or a facsimile or representation of the item. Any student with a weapon or facsimile of a weapon will be sent home and their facsimile item may be confiscated.
