Student Device Collection – Begins May 2nd for Juniors!

We will begin collecting Junior Chromebooks on May 2nd from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Students should bring their Chromebook and charger to Room 109 during this time. 

If you are unable to return your device during the scheduled time, you must contact Mr. Yates or Ms. Bararier to set up an alternate collection time. Devices can only be returned to Mr. Yates or Ms. Barrier. 

Fees for missing or damaged items: 

• Missing laptop: $475 

• Lost charger: $40 

• Missing and/or lost laptop case: $40 

If a student removed the laptop case, they may be charged for excessive cosmetic damage that may have occurred. (Fees may vary) 

No student will be allowed to keep their laptop over the summer. All laptops must be returned. 

Freshman and Sophomore devices will be collected after their last exam. Please be sure to bring your Chromebook and charger with you on the last day of exams. 

If you have any questions, please email john.yates@cabarrus.k12.nc.us.

9th Grade Parents: As you know, before students can attend college courses next year, they must pass a drug screening. This is a mandatory requirement for all Cabarrus College students. Cabarrus County Schools and CHSI will pay for the cost of this screening if you complete it from April 1st - May 31st at Wolfe, Inc. We are sending home a letter that has more information with your student. You must take this letter to Wolfe when you report for your drug screening to get it for free. The hours of Monday-Friday 8am-5pm closed from 12pm-1pm for lunch. 

In the next few weeks your student will be bringing home a letter stating they will need the 2nd meningitis vaccine that is required by North Carolina law for all seniors. They will need to bring a copy of their immunization record as proof that they have received it by the 30th day of school which will be September 9th, 2025. If your student does not have the vaccine on or before the 30th day of school next fall, school year 2025-26, per NC General Statute 130A-155, they will be excluded from school until the vaccine is received. Please schedule an appointment for your child as soon as you can to ensure your student is able to get this vaccine prior to the deadline. If your student has already received the vaccine, please send in the proof of vaccination and disregard any future messages regarding this requirement. -Nurse Helms

Final grades should be posted by all faculty in Sonis by 12:00 PM on Monday, May 5. Students can check their accounts at that time. If, for some reason, all final grades are not posted, please allow an additional 24 hours for them to populate into the system.

A Cabarrus College of Health Sciences student has the right to grieve and appeal a grade, an academic policy decision, or academic dismissal at the college level at any point in the semester. 

A “grievance” is a complaint based on the belief that one has been treated unfairly. If a student has a grievance concerning any grade, academic policy decision, or academic college dismissal, the student must first meet with the instructor or decision maker to discuss the concern. This meeting must occur within 5 business days of notification of the grade, policy decision or academic dismissal.

If unsatisfied with the outcome of the grievance meeting, the student may make an “appeal”, requesting that a person of authority review and possibly amend the prior decision. All academic appeals must be submitted using the Academic Appeal Checklist. 

If you would like more information on the processes and procedures for academic grievances and appeals, visit the Academic Catalog for more information.
