Our school-wide focus is on increasing the literacy capabilities of our students across all content areas. We have started the ball rolling with implementing our literacy tasks in Social Studies, Science, and Math. Additionally, our literacy team is preparing to look at the data from the literacy tasks to determine our students' strengths and areas of growth, and identifying areas of needed professional development. We will begin sharing this data with the entire staff after Winter Break.

• Students are tired, and so are we!! Everyone is ready for Winter Break!! However, we must continue enforcing the expectations of CHS!! Let's continue to "sweat the small stuff" as we work on building "A Culture of Excellence!"
• Please do not order, bring, allow students to bring any food/drinks into the classrooms. If there are questions,  please speak to your Zone Administrator.
• Students must be in uniform this week. There are no "dress down days" this week.
•  On days close to Breaks, students like to walk the building. Please ensure students remain in your classes. Reminder - There should be NO PASSES issued during the first 15 minutes of the class period, or the last 15 minutes of the class period. EMERGENCIES ONLY during the class periods. It is very important that we all adhere to this expectation!!
• Please continue to be vigilant and let's keep our eyes and ears open! If you see or hear of any possible issues with students, or between students, please notify security, ABIS, or Administration ASAP!
