Maintaining High Expectations as the Year Wanes
Dear Cougar Family,
In two weeks, we will graduate the Class of 2017. They begin their finals next Monday, so this marks the last school week for Seniors. As the weather gets warmer, summer seems so close, we could reach out and touch it. These last two weeks are when students really test boundaries, so please make sure you are continuing to enforce our high expectations. Whether making sure every student has an ID on, sending students from your classroom with a hall pass, or taking a lap or two throughout your floor during your conference period--every action we take as the adults on campus sends students the message that we are conducting school as usual. Thank you for your diligence as we bring this school year to a close.
I would also like to take a moment to thank Cindy Knapek and Chad Lehrmann for their leadership with Student Council and the execution of a beautiful prom! We hosted over 750 students at the dance, and from the packed dance floor and smiling faces, I'd say it was a huge success. Thank you to all of the Cougar staff who volunteered time this weekend at prom and After Prom Bash as well! Without all of you, these fabulous events wouldn't be possible.
Finally, this week the End of Year Checkout sheets will be given to department chairs to distribute. Please be on the lookout for more information from them as well as emails with links to surveys, etc.
Let's finish strong, Cougars! Have a fabulous week!
As always, COUGAR PRIDE!

Senior Final Exams
Graduation 2017--Staff Duties
All teachers are expected to attend. Please sign up for your official graduation duty assignment here. If you are a parent of a senior, we will send out the sign-up soon for you to be able to give your son or daughter his/her diploma.
Graduation practice will be held on Thursday, May 25 from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM. The 3rd period final will be complete with plenty of time for most teachers to be able to join us. Please take a look at your schedule and plan to be there.
In addition, we would love to have everyone join us for the Senior Sunset Supper in the CSHS cafeteria Thursday, May 25 at 6:30 PM.
Spring is in the Air!
Please remember that our common expectations are the key part of creating an environment at CSHS in which students can strive for success. Take a moment to make sure you are helping communicate these common expectations to our students (and to your sub via your sub notes):
1) IDs: Students must where them from when they enter the building to when they exit after school.
2) Tardies: Please do not let students in without a pass after the tardy bell.
3) Hall Passes: When a student leaves your classroom, he/she needs either a bathroom pass that clearly indicates the student is from your classroom and has permission to use the restroom nearest your room OR a blue hall pass that is completely filled out. More hall passes are available in the attendance office.
4) Hall Duty: Students should be met by lots of smiling faces as they make their way to the next class.
5) Dress Code: Short shorts, leggings without a fingertip-length shirt, and hats are the most consistent issues administrators are seeing. Please check students as they enter your classroom. Often, we do not see a student out of dress code until lunch, which means they've gone by at least 4 teachers before we see them.
Student Recognition
We'd like to recognize the success of our students on the announcements and social media. Please email Tiffany and Victoria or place an announcement in the box on Tiffany's desk. In order to be included on social media, please either send a picture of students or your organization's logo. Thanks!
