Greetings Families,
It is report card time for 9/10th grade. Please check Powerschool on October 23rd for report cards.
We are holding an open house for 8th graders on October 30th from 6-8pm. If you have friends, neighbors, or family members that are looking at program choice options, let them know. We are looking for ways to spread the word about CHSI.
We have created a new Facebook page as another way for our community to connect. Please follow us!
Please reach out to us at CHSI if we can help answer any questions for you.
In partnership,
Ashley Short

10th Graders got copies of drug test results last week. Here are the directions for uploading these to EXAAT for college compliance:
Click “Current Students”
Click “Exxat – Prism” on the right hand side.
Log in using their K12 email address
All accounts should be activated, so if they cannot log in, they should reset their password.
Ms. Louallen will go over Exxat with them in CCS105 next week or the week after.

Those of you that have submitted an updated Flex form, can start flexing in and out on Monday. Remember, if your flex time is after 10am, you must complete attendance for that day on the online attendance form. It is on our school webpage under students and is called "Junior Attendance." When you leave for the day, you must report to CHSI to sign out with Ms. Clay.
I would recommend that if you are arriving after 10am, that you set an alarm on those days to remind yourself to do attendance online.
**If you forget to do online attendance but come later in the day (in-person at CHSI) to correct the attendance, you will be marked as TARDY. No exceptions. On the 4th tardy, you will receive an unexcused absence and your flex privileges can be revoked. We understand this is a new procedure, so after the first week, tardies will start if you forget.
If your school arrival time is before 10am, you must come into CHSI and sign in on the paper attendance sheet to be marked present. If you forget to sign in on the paper attendance, you will be marked tardy. On the 4th tardy it will be an absence, and you can have your flex privileges revoked. As always, if you are placed on academic probation, all flex privileges can be revoked.
- Please understand that attendance is a state law, and we will be in violation if we do not properly report attendance. We will adhere to these guidelines.

I created an Office Hour Calendar for the Fall semester (see attached). I will share this with 10th grade via their CCS105 Canvas Course and all students via the Early College Student Resource Center. While I am teaching CCS105 in the first 7 weeks, I will only one day/time each week for all students (regardless of grade level) to meet with me. Beginning mid-October, I will have office hours three days a week for all students to meet with me. If students need to meet with me outside my designated office hours, they need to schedule a meeting with me using the link in my email signature. My CCS105 office hours Tuesday-Friday from 2-2:30pm will occur at the college (office 127), but I would like to host my Monday office hours in the DEN if possible.
Schedule a Meeting with me:

Our PTO provides a variety of support to our students and staff. To expand their impact, your support is needed.
For those who are interested in joining the PTO, we are asking for each parent to complete the PTO form and pay the one-time fee ($10). There is an electronic option, CheddarUp ( https://pto-membership-dues-80131.cheddarup.com). A $1.40 fee will be applied upon checkout. If you would like to pay with cash or check, those are acceptable options. You can send it in with your child.
