CCHS News and Announcements
Spring Testing
The following tests will be administered next week at CCHS all in the community room.
- NWEA (all students) Tuesday-Thursday, April 26-28, 12pm
- PSAT/SAT Make ups (9th-11th graders that aren’t opted out) Tuesday, April 26, 10am
- CMAS (11th graders that aren’t opted out) Tuesday and Thursday April 26 and 28, 2pm
ReGroup We are now in the second and last week of our last ReGroup of the School Year. This is a time for students to come in and complete any missing assignments and receive extra help from teachers in small groups for anything they are not quite sure about. For our Seniors, this is the final opportunity to complete work needed to graduate. ReGroup will run until April 28. Any Senior not done with all missing work by April 28 will not be on the list to graduate this Spring. Final checks for Service Learning hours will be on May 26, so there is additional time for completion of Service Learning only.
Portfolio Defense Scheduling If your student is graduating this year, they should have scheduled their defense appointments. These will all occur on Mondays in May and it is how CCHS determines if students have met the standards needed for graduation since we do not use grades. Please double check with your students if you are unsure about whether they have scheduled their appointment.
Senior Checklist Please pay close attention to the deadlines on this checklist. We will not be able to accommodate exceptions for late work as June 4 is a hard and fast deadline and there are many pieces to get in place ahead of graduation day!
Prom We were not able to get enough students to confirm that they would like to attend CCHS Prom and will not hold a Prom this year separate from the one at LCHS. Money that was paid for Prom has been returned to those students. CCHS juniors and seniors may attend the LCHS Prom. LCHS Prom will be held on Saturday, May 28th at Freight. The After Prom’s location is not determined yet. More details to come soon!
Workforce Readiness Bootcamp runs from May 3- June 2 for Seniors and from May 3 – June 16 for underclassmen. Students will be expected to be in school all day (10am-5:30pm) Tuesdays-Thursdays. We will be breaking into groups according to student interest and/or chosen career cluster to engage in projects designed to develop skills and provide work experience for our students. Students will need to apply and interview for their area of choice. Students who have full time jobs that can be documented through Work Based Learning contracts and Work Logs will not need to attend daily, but instead turn in their signed contracts and maintain their log. They will need to show that their resume is complete and that they know how to fill out a job application in order to be dismissed from the daily activities of the Bootcamp. Please contact Heather with any questions related to this final segment of the CCHS student calendar.

Outward Bound is offering a free backpacking trip to LGBTQ+ youth this summer in California. Outward Bound LGBTQ+ coursesare designed for LGBTQ+ teens to build community and cultivate self-efficacy through service-learning, leadership development, and self-discovery in natural environments. This course is staffed with Instructors who have lived experiences with and demonstrated support for the LGBTQ+ community. Staff strive to create a safe space for teens who have experienced being marginalized due to their identity, and/or are exploring their sexual and/or gender identity to build community and cultivate self-efficacy. Students should expect a traditional Outward Bound course structure, where they’ll learn technical skills and take responsibility for daily activities, while also developing relationships and building community with other LGBTQ+ youth. The program provides full-tuition scholarships for highly motivated LGBTQ+ youth from under-resourced communities to attend an Outward Bound wilderness course.
