IMPORTANT YEARBOOK INFORMATION

Purchasing Information and Extra Senior Opportunities

Hey Chiefs! The time to purchase your Yearbook is now! To purchase this year’s book:

Go to the “Campus Life” tab on the CHS Website, and select the "Yearbook" option. This will bring you to the Balfour website, where you will be prompted to select your student's name and grade.

If you have a Senior student this year, you can purchase a section or page in the yearbook to commemorate their accomplishments over the years, and their time at CHS.

Once you input the student’s information, if you’ve selected a Senior, the website will show you pricing and set up information to help buy and design your senior ad, in addition to purchasing a book.

If you have any questions or concerns at any time, feel free to reach out to the CHS Yearbook staff via Email at clairemontyearbook2022@gmail.com or Instagram @clmtyearbook.

CHS WANTS YOUR FEEDBACK

The CalSCHLS system was created by the California Department of Education (CDE) in 1997 to efficiently and cost-effectively provide school districts and their partner communities with quality local data which can be used to improve student academic performance and social-emotional, behavioral, and physical health of all youth. It assesses key indicators linked to success in school, career, and life. The majority of districts in California now use CalSCHLS data as Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) indicators.

There are three surveys that are used in SDUSD:

• California Healthy Kids Survey (CHKS)

• California School Staff Survey (CSSS)

• California School Parent Survey (CSPS)

These surveys play an important role in allowing students, staff, and families to share their thoughts on the types of tools and resources CHS should work to add to our academic program. CHS is asking that ALL parents complete the California School Parent Survey (CSPS) by March 25, 2022. Parents can access the California School Parent Survey at the link below:

Parent: https://wested.ugam-apps.com/wed/ts/cm1n

Students will have an opportunity to complete the survey at school. If you have any questions regarding the survey or need any additional assistance, please reach out to Principal Williams at ewilliams4@sandi.net.

Dear San Diego Unified Family,

San Diego Unified will once again offer all students a summer of learning and joy with free classes, free camps and free enrichment programs. Last year, more than 30,000 students took part in the program! Sign up is starting for the academic portion of the program, so please take a look at some of the programs available. Remember that all classes are taught by highly qualified and trained San Diego Unified educators. This is a great chance for your student(s) to continue learning over the summer and extend their education. Both academic and enrichment opportunities at No Cost to families throughout the city.

The enrollment/registration window for the Summer of 2022 is now open for ANY interested student. Enrollment/registration will be processed by the district office. The last day to enroll is Monday, February 28, 2022. All applications received after the enrollment window closes will be considered based on space availability.

Students enrolled in the summer experience will remain in their current grade level. (i.e., Current 5th grade students will remain in 5th grade during summer, current 8th grade students will remain in 8th grade during summer, etc.).

*If a student becomes eligible for ESY after the enrollment deadline of February 28, they can still enroll/register for Extended School Year (ESY).

During the forum, you will have the opportunity to meet the superintendent finalists and provide input on your thoughts about the position and the future of the district. The goal is to choose the most outstanding leader for San Diego Unified and to engage employees, schools, and the San Diego community on the future of our district as we complete the superintendent selection process.

On December 14, the Board of Education announced the selection of the following individuals as finalists for the superintendent position: Dr. Lamont A. Jackson and Dr. Susan Enfield. The board will select a permanent superintendent in mid-March.

We believe that you and other educational partners have a genuine investment in the environment in which you work each day, and your insight and sensitivities must be acknowledged in a meaningful way. We hope you will join us in attending the community input forum.

Sincerely,

Board of Education

San Diego Unified School District
