Hello Cleveland Families!
This past week, our cafeteria and auditorium were filled with joy as hundreds of you joined us to celebrate Cleveland’s Multicultural Night! This student-led event was a tremendous success, and we are so grateful for your participation. Thank you for coming, enjoying the delicious food, and cheering on our talented students as they performed on stage. It was a beautiful evening, and we loved sharing it with all of you.
As we approach Winter Break, I want to express my heartfelt thanks for your partnership and the privilege of supporting your student’s growth. They are truly a gift to the Cleveland community. I am deeply grateful to work alongside an incredible staff and to feel your unwavering support every day.
On behalf of the entire Cleveland staff, I wish you a warm, restful, and rejuvenating Winter Break. We look forward to seeing you in the New Year!

Seniors: Order your cap & gown before winter break!
It is important seniors place their order before Winter Break – if they miss the group order placed with the manufacturer, they will need to pay additional costs for an individual order. We are using a plain red gown with a specialized 2025 graduation stole.
If students had a sibling that graduated recently and fit in their gown, they can reuse the gown and only order a stole for $30
