CHS Alumni Guests November 2023: One of the most wonderful aspects of Thanksgiving is that we get to see family we have not seen in a while. It is no different at Craig High! Prior to Thanksgiving Break, we had a small group of alumni grace the hallways that they once walked. They met with teachers to give their thanks and met with our students to share their words of wisdom. Advice ranged from choosing a school and a major as well as a roommate.
Luke Class of 2023, Brady Class of 2023, Jeremy Class of 2021, Gianfranco Class of 2021
They also talked about using the resources of their various colleges, including the writing centers and advisor programs. One of our alum, Gianfranco, CHS Class of 2021, shared that he just spent 6-months at the Fire academy and will be taking the Firefighter 1 Certification Test next week to be a fireman in his town.

Thinking the weather has finally caught up to December. You can almost feel the potential of snow in the air. Speaking of December, we are now entering our two-week pre-holiday sprint which starts with our 1st trimester exams and wraps up with our Winter Spirit Day on Friday, December 15th which is also 1st trimester Report Card Day. Here are a few things to help us get to the finish line.
This week will focus on organizing and reviewing our resources to support our student’s tri-exam study prep. Another priority for the week is what many of our students would say is our highest priority leading into exams, our Trimester Treats which will be handed out daily during exam week. Below is more info on this and the link from PACS to let you choose what treats you are able to provide.
Stay warm and enjoy your first full week of December,
Dr. Cap

All practices (and pick-ups) will be held at the CSHS Gym from 3-4:30 PM on the following Tuesdays:

We are currently checking for student interest and if we have enough interest, we will then start working on our home hoop schedule and will share that when we finalize it.

PACS Presents “Trimester Treats” Sign-Ups: PACS is excited to bring back a wonderful tradition that they began a few years back-Trimester Treats! The motivation behind Trimester Treats was to both nourish and encourage our CHS students on their upcoming exams (Dec 11-14). Our Trimester Treats will be an assortment of their favorite single-serve snacks labeled with encouraging messages to keep them upbeat and positive. Just enough to keep them from being hungry and to let them know that we believe in them!
All snacks will need to be in before exams so that gives us now through Friday, December 8th for our drop-off dates. Below is a link for parents to sign up to donate snacks including quantities requested (based on Costco-sized boxes so no worries if you are over/under the requested amounts) Trimester Treats 2023 Sign-Ups
