CAST STEM Principal's Weekly Update
August 6, 2021
Week In Review
Thank you to all of the scholars that joined us for Summer Bridge this week. You worked hard, had fun and learned the CAST STEM Way! Please review some of the pictures from Summer Bridge - where our Scholars became Champions in leadership, scholarship and fun.
We are looking forward to the first day of school on August 23rd. In preparation for the new year, please remember that your email passwords were reset by the district at the end of July. Please use your birthdate to log back in and check your email. This is a good time to clean out your inbox.
Schedules will be live this afternoon. We do ask that you continue to be patient as we balance classes to maximize student success. Schedules may continue to change through the first 3 weeks of school. Please log in to Student Self-Serve or Parent Self-Serve to review your schedule after 5 p.m.
In gratitude,
Ravae V. Shaeffer
Proud Principal, CAST STEM HS
