Thank you CHS Foundation for bringing together the cooks and the community!
Every year San Diego Community College District asks Clairemont what courses we would like to offer as CCAP courses. The options are often limited but we would like to request courses that students are interested in and that meet the requirements for the Cal-GETC (California General Education Transfer Curriculum) for California State Schools and University of California Schools.
Please complete this survey so that we can request the courses that students are interested in. There is no guarantee we will be able to offer these courses but we will do our best to request the courses our students are interested in!
Please share your ratings and input on the possible mascots for the CHS Captains. All current, former, and future community member (students, staff, parents, alumni, etc) input is welcomed.
Please note: none of these is the final design rendering; this feedback will be used to help determine next steps in the mascot design process. Additionally, the following values are what helped guide the team in deciding upon "Captains," which we hope the mascot itself will also represent:
Must positively represent the entire student body now and in years to come.
Should not be tied to anything harmful or disrespectful toward people or communities whether based on: (any possible nicknames and physical iterations/images must also follow this standard): Culture, ethnicity, gender, history, race, religion,social group identity
Can not repeat a current mascot of a high school within the San Diego Unified School District or a Clairemont Cluster school.
Try to avoid repeating any current mascots being used by high schools within San Diego County.
Must work with the school’s colors of Orange and Blue.
Does not need to be alliterative (e.g. the Clairemont Corgis).
Webpage provides links for students regarding their rights, things they can learn, scholarships & opportunities, and much more.
All high school students have been added to a new San Diego Unified Informational Classroom on Canvas.
It’s your go-to spot for district updates, opportunities, and even scholarships. Check it out weekly so you don’t miss out!
If you didn’t get the invite, you can self-enroll with the code W4XJAL.
