Parent/Guardian NEWSLETTER

Good afternoon!  I hope that each of you have enjoyed your weekend.  Students enrolled in Algebra 1 will take their End of Course exam on Tuesday, April 29th.  This is the last of the EOCs our students will take during this school year.  Also, we will continue selling prom tickets during all lunches this week, but the ticket prices will increase on Thursday, May 1st.  Prom information is attached to this email.  I want to wish the Girls' Golf team good luck as they compete in the State Golf Meet this week.  Additionally, Janey Baker has advanced to the State Track Meet in the 100m and 300m hurdles, for the 3rd consecutive year.  Finally, I want to congratulate the 30 nursing students who will recieve their CNA Pins at the first pinning ceremony held this Thursday, May 1st, at 6:00 pm in the Performing Arts Center.

Attendance Information:  If your student has been out sick, or they will miss for another reason please contact Ms. Ema Moes,CSHS Attendance Clerk.  Students can have up to four parent notes per semester.  One absence = one parent note. 

Dr. Notes:  As we get further into our year, I need parents and guardians help in ensuring that our students turn in Dr. notes when they have Dr. appointments.  If a student goes to an appointment and comes back the same day, or their appointment is at the end of a day, they can supply a Dr.’s note so the absence is excused.  Dr. notes can be emailed to Ms. Moes or faxed to 254-836-1418.

Class Dues:  A student must be current on their class dues in order to attend the Junior-Senior Prom.  Class fees are $25 9th – 11th grade, and they are $35 for 12th Grade.  Unpaid class dues will be taken during lunches in the cafeteria.

2025 CSHS Junior-Senior Prom:  The CSHS Junior-Senior Prom will be held on Saturday, May 3rd.  The event will be held in the China Spring High School Main Gym, and the theme is Hollywood.  CSHS juniors and seniors are allowed to attend and their date.  Prom tickets are $30 and can be purchased online through Hometown Ticketing.  Beginning Thursday, May 1st, ticket prices will increase to $40.  Prom Information is attached to this email.
