Week of October 28
This four-day week marks the end of the first quarter. We have Flex periods both on Wednesday and Thursday to support your student to make up or finish up work for the quarter. This half way mark in the semester is a good time for students to reflect on their learning so far and to plan for success for the second quarter. Remember that only semester grades are recorded on a student’s transcript and are used to determine grade point average (GPA). Please do not hesitate to contact the school if you have trouble accessing ParentVue which gives you the ability to see your student’s attendance and grades.
Thursday is Halloween and the student store is sponsoring a costume contest at lunch. While it can be fun to dress up for this holiday, students must not wear costumes that obscure their faces, portray negative stereotypes or violate the PPS dress code policy. I look forward to being one of the judges on Thursday! Finally, Friday is our last football game of the regular season where we play Lincoln HS at their field. Go Warriors!
All Cleveland students must show an ID card when entering the school building. Students who lose or misplace their ID can get a replacement from the attendance office and will have a $5 charge. Students who regularly do not have an ID will get a 30 minute detention after school. We will notify parents if this happens.
The payment deadline for IB exam registration is this Friday, November 1st. Information and link to School Pay is in the confirmation email that was sent to student and parent after registration. Any questions about payment or late registration contact IB Coordinator, Jamie Incorvia. Her email is jincorvia@pps.net
Counselors will be taking seniors and interested juniors to the PCC SE Campus for Preview Day on Friday, Nov 15th. Students get information about PCC programs, financial aid and will tour the campus. Students should see Mr. Gibson or Ms. Van Kopp for permission forms ASAP.
Students need to advance register with PCC by completing this PREVIEW DAY FORM. We will ride Tri-Met, leaving from Cleveland at 8:30am and return back by about 1:30pm.
Every purchase goes towards supporting our program costs. With no budget from the district, your support is appreciated and ensures that the choir program here at Cleveland is able to provide quality teaching materials and resources to our deserving students!
Now through November 26th, you can purchase a wreath online, ask a choir student for an order form or print your own and email/mail/bring it back to CHS. Email acottrell@pps.net with any questions.
We need help each school day between 8:45am-10:15am. This is a great way to get involved with our school. This role is easy, but important. You're there to welcome students and direct visitors arriving at the building after the school day begins.
Please pick a day that works best for you and sign up today! Don't forget all volunteers must have a current PPS background check on file to sign-up.
