Message from Principal Wadkins
Thank you to all of you who attended the Winter Market this past Saturday. This festive event featured crafts and goodies from some amazingly creative students, staff and families. This fundraiser supported many of our clubs and programs. I am sure that this will become an annual event.
This is the last week for families to complete the Successful Schools Survey. Your responses inform our work in supporting you and your student. If you have multiple students in PPS, please only complete one survey and use the experiences of your oldest student in responding to the survey. The link to the survey is below and it closes on December 16, 2024.

I hope to see you all on Tuesday, December 10 for our annual winter band concert. I guarantee you will be enthralled with the talent of our Cleveland musicians and their director, Gary Riler.

These days Prom can cost upwards of $10,000 and we are already working hard to make this special night unforgettable, but we can't do it alone. We need your help! If you are able to make a donation, we would be so grateful. Your donation would help us secure a venue, DJ, refreshments, etc.
If you are willing and able to make a donation, please click the SchoolPay link below.
Thank you all for your generosity and support,

CHS PTA's Winter Campaign
“The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows.” - Sydney J. Harris
The month of December is a time for celebration, reflection, and gratitude. It is also an opportunity to expand perspectives, drive change, and support our children’s education and view to the future.
We are kicking off our annual CHS PTA Warrior Campaign, we hope you will join us in giving generously. Your donations support academic excellence and career readiness at CHS.
Your donations are critical in allowing the CHS PTA to directly support our teachers and students with over $15,000 in grants each year. We provide funds for Student Clubs and Affinity Groups, new lab and technology equipment, critical tools, books, art supplies, musical instruments, lecture tables, basic classroom supplies, Weekend Warrior and campus improvement projects, and so much more.
CHS is #2 in teacher grant donations for PPS—let's get to #1 this year! You can donate by clicking here. (https://tinyurl.com/4ycknttu) Thank you for your generosity! Any amount helps! We appreciate your support and wish you a great month and end of year!
