Cleveland Family Newsletter
Hello Cleveland Families,
Thank you to the many families and PTSA for supporting our Homecoming dance this past weekend! Your efforts made for a memorable night for our students. This week, our students have brought so much positive energy and enthusiasm to our school and watching their efforts in class has been inspiring!
As we approach the end of the 1st quarter, we will be holding Student Led Conferences. These conferences provide a valuable opportunity for students to share their progress and achievements with their families. It is a time for students to take ownership of their learning and reflect on their growth. The conferences will be scheduled shortly after the end of the 1st quarter, November 6th.
Please note that there will be no school on Wednesday, November 27, the day before Thanksgiving. We have been approved to waive this school day to make time for our Student Led Conferences and allow for our whole community to enjoy a longer holiday weekend.
In the coming weeks, you will receive information from your student’s advisory teacher regarding the scheduling of the Student Led Conferences. We look forward to your participation and support in these important conversations!

From Cleveland’s PTSA: Become a PTSA member!
Did you know that your PTSA membership does not renew every school year? It has to be renewed yearly. Payment for membership is not required! Anyone in the community can be a PTSA member: students, teachers & staff, parents & guardians, relatives, and any other community member. Without your membership, the PTSA cannot function. The PTSA is still in need of a Vice President. The Vice President opportunity can be shared with two people. We also are need of committee volunteers. Learn more on the link below.
