CCHS News and Announcements 8.21.25
Dear Cloud City High School Families,
We had a great week with our students in their academic classes and are excited to see their progress as we settle into the school year.
A few important reminders:
- Thursday Schedule: Please note that Thursday’s schedule is a little different. Be sure to pay close attention to when academic blocks are scheduled.
- Attendance & Tardiness: We have noticed an increase in students arriving extremely late to class or being absent without notification. Please help us by ensuring that absences are reported to the main office at 719-486-6980, by a parent/guardian and that students arrive to class on time.
We are working closely with students to smooth out any scheduling challenges, and we expect to be back into our normal rhythm by the end of next week.
Community Event: Tomorrow is a home soccer game for the high school team! There will be a pep rally at Community Field beginning at 3:45 PM before the game. We would love to see families and community members come out to support students and show your school spirit.
Thank you for your continued partnership. Have a wonderful weekend—we look forward to welcoming students back Monday morning, refreshed and ready to do great things!
Warmly,
Katherine Kerrigan

LCSD Strategic Plan Survey
This fall, we are launching a community-driven strategic planning process to help guide our priorities and investments in the years ahead. We want to ensure every student is thriving—and that means listening to the ideas, hopes, and experiences of our families, staff, students, and community.
We want to hear from you. Please take a few minutes to share your perspective through our Strategic Plan Survey and help spread the word to other families and community members.
