City High Update
The School That Leads
February 28, 2019
Dear Little Hawks,
Greetings from The School That Leads! Tomorrow we wrap up our second trimester. No classes for students on Monday, March 4 (records day for teachers). Then, on to an outstanding third trimester at City High!
Third Tri Schedule Adjustments
Any student seeking a third trimester schedule adjustment should make an appointment with guidance counselor ASAP. March 8 deadline.
Art Show Spectacular
City High visual arts students are amazing! The end of term art show featured truly remarkable work from our talented artists. I encourage ALL Little Hawks to consider taking an art course during their high school career. We have an excellent program at TSTL.
Presidential Scholar Nominees
Congratulations to our two Presidential Scholar nominees, Lydia and Hayden! This is an extraordinarily high achievement.
Finals Week at TSTL
Students and teachers are working hard together on end of trimester finals and projects. At City High, we use a special finals week schedule to ensure that tests are spread out, and not all hitting on the same day. We are proud of students for working hard to finish strong!
Best Buddies Art Event
City High Best Buddies celebrated with each other on Wednesday evening. Arts and crafts, karaoke, snacks, and friendship made it a really great night.
Band Concert
City High Bands performed a brilliant concert this week. The full house at Opstad Auditorium also sang a rousing rendition of "happy Birthday" to Director Ottmar. Congratulations to Directors McReynolds, Ottmar, and our student musicians.
Jazz Band in The Windy City!
City High's award winning jazz band performed in Chicago over the weekend. The group made the finals and had a great time exploring the city.
Show Choir Performs at Children's Hospital
City High's 4th Avenue Jazz Company performed at the UI Stead Family Children's Hospital. Our show this year was focused on "The Wave", so performing at the Children's Hospital was very, very special.
