CCHS News and Announcements
Hello CCHS Families,
Fall is upon us and soon we will be seeing the snowflakes falling to the ground. I have had several mornings the past couple of weeks where the windshield of my car has been iced over. Students, make sure you plan accordingly so if you need to scrape the windshield or shovel snow to make it to school on time that you are doing so. We are still struggling with student attendance a bit. Please try and make appointments for students on Mondays and/or Fridays so that they are limiting the number of days and class sessions missed during instructional time Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. We have an October attendance challenge happening currently. Parents/Guardians ask your student about the attendance challenge for October. Please make sure to encourage students to be at school on time during their scheduled time. Phone calls will continue to go out and I will be contacting parents/guardians to set up meetings for attendance plans.
Students who are intending to graduate in the 2022-23 school year have a mandatory meeting scheduled on Tuesday, October 25th from 12:45-1:45. We have all graduating students apply to Colorado Mountain College for the 2023-24 school year. This does not mean they have to attend CMC but they would have the option.
All CCHS students are required to be in school on Thursday, October 27th for our first Workforce Bootcamp Session in the morning. This will be communicated to students over the next couple of weeks from their Crew teachers and we will send out reminder texts to parents as we get closer to this day.
Last, we have Parent Teacher Conferences scheduled for Wednesday, October 26th and Thursday, October 27th 12 Noon- 8:00 pm. Look for more information on that and make sure you register for a time slot during these two days. This will be a student led conference so make sure it is a time that both students and parents/guardians can be in attendance to.
Again, if you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
