2021/2022 College Admissions

If you are a current senior, please note that Cal State, UC universities and many, many others are no longer requiring the SAT or ACT as a part of the admissions process. Some universities however are offering an SAT on their own campuses with scores that cannot be transferred but are using those results for their own scholarship purposes. Please check with your list of colleges/universities to see what they are requiring for both admissions and for merit scholarships.

Seniors- College Application Time is Now! Please Review the College Application Info Below:

Seniors requesting transcripts to be sent to colleges: Please make sure you request transcripts through Naviance OR through the Common Application. The Common Application requires you to invite your counselor on the site so that they can upload a transcript on your behalf. Please invite your Academic Counselor as soon as you begin the Common Application.

Please note that Naviance is NOT linked to the Common Application. Naviance is a system designed to send transcripts and letters to all universities that are not on the Common Application. The Common Application is an actual application site while Naviance is not.

If you are using Naviance, here is a link with step by step instructions on how to request letters of recommendation and transcripts through Naviance:

The Common Application requires you to input your recommenders email address. Please also ask all recommenders personally. All letters of recommendation need to be requested 2-3 weeks in advance of the deadline. You do NOT need to have completed your portion of the common application before inviting recommenders. Please invite recommenders ASAP so that they have enough time to write letters.

CSU/UC & Common Application: Reporting High School Coursework Grades:

For the UC/CSU and Common App schools, students should input grades as semester since CAHS issues 2 final grades per course (not 4 final grades, which can be typical for a quarter system). The "A” portion or “1st half" of a grade will be semester 1-Fall and the "B” portion or 2nd half" of a grade will be semester 2-Spring. The courses for senior year should have a "planned" or "in progress" option to select and those should be marked as semester grades as well.

Social Emotional Counseling

February is Black History Month and we are continuing the difficult conversation around racial justice. We are grateful to have the CEO of the organization, Cameron Curry, join us for this week’s discussion, which focuses on the movie Just Mercy, the true story of the lives of Bryan Stevenson and Walter McMillian. For families who watch this movie together, we have provided a discussion guide to assist in facilitating conversation at home around these difficult topics. Just Mercy is available to be streamed on HBO or purchased on Amazon. The movie is rated PG-13 and we recommend that parents preview the film or do their own research on it to ensure that it's an appropriate film for their student. For those who do not have access to the movie, we have provided additional resources on the subject as well as alternative movie choices that are relevant to the discussion.

The counseling team is here to help support you in processing through the tough emotions that this movie and discussion may invoke. Please reach out to us if you are struggling, have questions, or just need a listening ear.

Breakfast Program

The Classical Academies participates in a school meal program by offering a nutritious breakfast meal every school day. Our breakfast program is available to all students that are on campus longer than two hours for an educational purpose. Prepackaged Breakfast Kits are available on campus at various times throughout the day to allow for flexible schedules.

The Breakfast Kits must be ordered online at https://classicalacademies.boonli.com by noon the day before your student is on campus. Instructions on how to order are available HERE.

When your student arrives on campus, they will be able to choose from the available prepackaged Breakfast Kits. Each Breakfast Kit includes a breakfast cereal, dried fruit, unsweetened regular or flavored applesauce, graham crackers, and low-fat milk. All Breakfast Kits include a spoon and napkin. The cost is $3.00 per Breakfast Kit. Eligible students may receive meals free of charge if qualified. Please contact the school Registrar if you have questions about eligibility.

For more information about the school meal program, visit the TCA School Meals webpage.

School Meals Available at Community Locations

On October 9, 2020, the USDA extended the summer grab-and-go school meal program to encompass the entire school year. Children are eligible to receive meals regardless of school or district of attendance. School districts are working hard to implement the new guidelines and meet local needs. Locally, we are aware of meal services in Escondido, Oceanside, and Vista. Please visit their websites for more information. To find out when your neighborhood school will be ready to participate in this program, please visit 20/21 Meal Sites for Students.

Sports Update

CAHS Sports Info Page

Dear Caiman Families,

We are elated to share some great news with you and your student-athletes regarding CAHS sports.

First of all, we are proud to announce the hiring of Coach Aaron Vermilyea as our interim Head Coach for our Varsity baseball team. Over the past several years, Coach Vermilyea has done a fantastic job as Head Coach of our JV baseball team. He will be a great fit for us during this season as we work towards growing our program while maintaining the excellence that has been established with our CAHS baseball program and community.

Secondly, as of today the Stay At Home Order has been officially lifted. In short, what that means for us at this moment, is that our Cross Country, Swim & Dive, and our Mountain Bike teams will be officially starting Feb 1st and allowed to participate in competitions.

Please see the additional information provided below to understand the broader scope of where we are when it comes to CIF sports in regards to our current situation:

• All CIF sports are determined by the tier assignments based on our county covid tier status.

• Competitions for each sport are not allowed until our county is in the assigned tier, however, sports can start practicing once they reach the point in which their sport is within one tier level of their assigned tier.

• Physical conditioning, practice, skill building, and training that can be conducted outdoors are currently authorized for all sports regardless of county tier status.

• Athletes and coaches may only participate in one team (cohort) at a time. The only exception is Track & Field and Cross Country. These two sports are considered one cohort and can compete in both sports at the same time.

• Athletes may not compete in the same CIF sport and competitive sport at the same time.

• You can find the start dates and tier level for all other sports HERE.

We understand that the release of the guidance will create a lot of questions. CIF is asking for our patience as they work with our section leaders to review the impact the new guidance from the California Department of Health has on the CIF-San Diego Section and our plan for the start of additional sports. We will pass on any updates we receive.

As of now, we will be moving forward with the CIF scheduled start of Cross Country and Swim & Dive on February 1st. Our mountain biking team will also be starting. We want to assure you that all workouts will follow state, county, and CIF safety protocols and procedures. Details will be communicated by coaches with the start of season announcements. All workouts are optional and, until the "stay at home" order is lifted, there will be no competitions against other schools or cohorts.

In the meantime...

1. Make sure your athlete is cleared to play by completing their sports clearance paperwork HERE.

2. Download our Caiman Sports App or go to caimansports.com to view all start of season announcements by checking out the "News" page of any sport.

3. Make sure and fill out the athlete interest form so that your coach will be able to reach out to you with start of season announcements. The link to those forms can be found on our Sport Info Page.

Thank you again for your patience and flexibility with all the changes and delays in the start of sports in this very unusual year. We look forward to seeing you all out there very soon!

Stay safe and feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
