Kona Ice during lunches: April 2
March 30- HB5 meetings
The CSHS Counselors and Administrators would like to invite all incoming freshmen parents to attend an informational meeting regarding HB5, Personal Graduation Plans (PGP), and dates to sign up to meet with you, your student, and a counselor and/or an administrator to begin the HB5/PGP process. The meeting will take place on Monday, March 30th, at 6:00pm in the China Spring High School Cafeteria. A brief overview of HB5 will be provided, a short time of questions will be answered, and parents will be able to sign up for a time and day to meet for the in-person PGP meeting. While this meeting is not mandatory, we encourage you to come and hear more about how CSHS can help in the PGP process with your student. We look forward to seeing you there!
