Spring 2020 Semester Revised Grading Policy
Dear Families:
As we come to the end of the school year, we wanted to clarify the emergency CUSD Board Policy regarding distance learning grading for the spring 2020 semester. In staying with the spirit of "do no harm" during these unusual times the Capistrano Unified School Board created a hybrid policy where students can receive a letter grade of A, B, or C, a "CR" mark indicating credit for a class, or a "NC" mark indicating no credit for a class.
Teachers will evaluate a student's final grade and compare it to the grade the student had at the 12-week progress reporting period. The following guidelines will be used to issue final grades for the semester. If the student or parent would like the teacher to consider a letter grade and/or a "CR" they should consult with the teacher. Teachers will share preliminary semester grades with students no later than May 29, 2020.
- If a student's grade went up or stayed the same the student will receive that letter grade of A, B, or C as a final grade
- If a student's grade drops, the student will receive a credit "CR" unless there is a consultation with the teacher to request the letter grade.
- If a student was failing at the 12-week mark and their final grade is still failing they will receive a no credit "NC"
Both the credit "CR" and no credit "NC" marks will not calculate into a student's GPA.
A no credit "NC" mark does not give credit for that class which might require a student to retake the course.
Please see the chart below for specific situations regarding grades:
Distance Learning Semester Grade
Your 12 Week Gr ade | If your Semester Grade improved during distance learning | If your Semester Grade stayed the sa me during distance learning | If your Semester Grade went down during dis tance learning |
---|---|---|---|
A | You get an A on your transcript. | You get an A on your transcript. | You get a CR (credit) on your transcript. * |
B | You get the improved grade on your transcript. | You get a B on your transcript. | You get a CR (credit) on your transcript. * |
C | You get the improved grade on your transcript. | You get a C on your transcript. | You get a CR (credit) on your transcript. * |
D | You get the improved grade on your transcript. | You get a CR (credit) on your transcript. | You get a CR (credit) on your transcript. |
F | You get a CR (credit) for a D or the letter grade of C or better on your transcript | You get a NC (no credit) on your transcript. | You get a NC (no credit) on your transcript. |
*If the student or parent would like the teacher to consider a letter grade and/or a "CR" they should consult with the teacher no later than June 3, 2020.
Queridas familias:
A medida que nos acercamos al final del año escolar, me gustaría aclarar la política de emergencia de la Junta de CUSD, en cuanto al sistema de calificación de la educación a distancia, para el semestre de la primavera del 2020. Manteniendo el espíritu de "no hacer daño" durante estos tiempos inusuales, la Junta del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Capistrano, creó una política híbrida, en la que los estudiantes pueden recibir una calificación de letra A, B, o C, una marca "CR" que indica que obtuvo créditos para una clase, o una marca "NC" que indica que no obtuvo créditos para una clase.
Los maestros evaluarán la calificación final de un estudiante y la comparará, con la calificación que el estudiante obtuvo, en el período del reporte del progreso de las primeras 12 semanas. Las siguientes pautas se utilizarán para emitir las calificaciones finales del semestre. Si el estudiante o el padre desea que el maestro considere una calificación de letra y/o una "CR" deben consultar con el maestro. Los maestros compartirán las calificaciones preliminares del semestre con los estudiantes a más tardar el 29 de Mayo del 2020.
- Si la calificación de un estudiante subió o se mantuvo igual, el estudiante recibirá esa calificación de letra A, B, o C, como calificación final.
- Si la calificación de un estudiante bajó, el estudiante recibirá créditos "CR", a menos que haya una consulta con el maestro para solicitar la calificación de letra.
- Si un estudiante estaba reprobado en la semana 12 y su calificación final es de reprobado, no recibirá créditos "NC".
- Tanto créditos "CR", como no créditos "NC", no se calcularán en el GPA (Promedio Académico) de un estudiante
Una marca de "NC", no otorga créditos para esa clase, lo que puede requerir que un estudiante vuelva a tomar el curso.
Por favor, consulte la tabla a continuación, para situaciones específicas con relación a las calificaciones:
Calificaciones en el Semestre de Aprendizaje a Distancia
Tu Calificación en la Semana 12 | Si tu Calificación en el Semestre mejoró durante el aprendizaje a distancia | Si tu Calificación en el Semestre se mantuvo igual durante el aprendizaje a distancia | Si tu Calificación en el Semestre bajó durante el aprendizaje a distancia |
---|---|---|---|
A | Obtendrás una A en tu expediente académico. | Obtendrás una A en tu expediente académico. | Obtendrás una CR (créditos) en tu expediente académico. * |
B | Obtendrás la calificación mejorada en tu expediente académico. | Obtendrás una B en tu expediente académico. | Obtendrás una CR (créditos) en tu expediente académico. * |
C | Obtendrás la calificación mejorada en tu expediente académico. | Obtendrás una C en tu expediente académico. | Obtendrás una CR (créditos) en tu expediente académico. * |
D | Obtendrás la calificación mejorada en tu expediente académico. | Obtendrás una CR (créditos) en tu expediente académico. | Obtendrás una CR (créditos) en tu expediente académico. * |
F | Obtendrás una CR (créditos) por una D, C, o una letra mejor, en tu expediente académico. | Obtendrás una NC (no créditos) en tu expediente académico. | Obtendrás una NC (no créditos) en tu expediente académico. |
*Si el estudiante o el padre, quiere que el maestro considere una calificación de letra y/o una "CR" deben consultar con el maestro a más tardar el 3 de Junio del 2020.

5 Star Spirit
Hello Cougars,
We are your Athletic Commissioners, Reid Berke and Tyler Sorrel, and your Spirit Commissioner, Jason Shurtz. The spirit at football games has been great, but for the rest of the varsity sports and art performance, we could do a lot better. This year we will have a new program to encourage students to come and support athletes and artists that do not get as much credit for their hard work.
The program is called Five Star Spirit. Every week we will have a Game-of-the-Week for sports that will qualify for points in the program. All performing art events will also be included such as Orchestra, Choir, Band, and Drama. When you attend one of these events, we will have scanners so make sure to bring your school ID's to earn points. We will be sending out a weekly email for what events are happening.
Rewards:
- 5 events - Capo spirit rag
- 8 events - Capo spirit shirt
- 10 events - Qualifying students will be entered to win free Winter Formal Tickets
- Top 2 most spirited students - Get a choice of 2 home basketball game for front-row seats (including an extra for a friend)
The next week events are (September 25th-September 29th):
- Game of the week: Girls Tennis Match - Thursday - Sept 28th @3 PM @ Capo
Hope to see all of you representing the CVHS spirit.

SOCIETY OF FREE THOUGHT
We meet on Thursdays at lunch in Room PE6
In case you are confused about my club's purpose I'll try to reiterate.Society of Free Thought (SOFT) is aweekly club in which we will express our freedom of speech by discussing, exploring, and analyzing conventional and unconventional ideas the school system may or may not facilitate in a normal classroom environment (and common core has made this much harder to do and has made learning less enjoyable). We will also watch, react, and analyze video clips, movies, and documentaries. The objective here is to get people thinking about stuff that they would not normally be taught by most teachers.
Some students have expressed to me how inconvenient it is to host SOFT on Thursdays and decided not to join because of this. To counteract the issue I have decided to use a group organization app called BAND. BAND is basically like a private Facebook that will be exclusive to SOFT members only. I'll have more information on this later but for now it would be great if you could download the app ahead of time (it's free).
It's my last year in high school and my first year at Capo. I feel like I have held back my feelings about many things over the years too much. It's my last chance to give something back to the student body.
I hope you all stop by on Thursdays and tell your friends about this club so try to get the word out!
Thanks again to everyone! :)
P.S - I also have another club called the Fantasy Club that meets twice a week so if you want more info about it you can email me

Big week for Water Polo Player Austin Sechrest
This has been a big week for Boys Water Polo Player Austin Sechrest. On Tuesday he was named the Scholar Athlete of the Week on OC Varsity(http://www.ocvarsity.com/articles/sechrest-80765-water-polo.html). Just over a month ago he was the Athlete of the Week. Along with this he scored his 400th career goal on Tuesday which is something no other CVHS Boy Water Polo Player has ever done. Last and most certainly the best, he received his Likely Letter from Harvard University which is telling him that he has attained approval for acceptance to the school. This most certainly will be a week that Austin will never forget. Great Job!!!

Hey Cougars!
So if you signed up for Songs for Smiles Club today at club rush, thanks so much! We appreciate the support and genuine interest.
Just a recap, we have weekly visits to Vintage Senior Center, where we set up musical performance (vocal and instrumental). It's a great experience, the senior residents are super friendly, and you get community service hours.
Even though our events are weekly, you can pick and chose which days to come if you are on a tight schedule. They will usually be on Saturdays, anywhere between 1:00-4:00.
We have informational meetings at lunch, every other Tuesday in Senora Mack's room (K hall). Our first lunchtime informational meeting will be next Tuesday, 10/13.
Feel free to loopmail me, Michelle Liu, anytime if you are interested in joining or have questions.

Bullying Prevention Video Entry
"Each of us deserves the freedom to pursue our own version of happiness. No one deserves to be bullied." –Barack Obama
This year, Capo Valley High School is participating in bullying prevention day on October 5th. To spread awareness on the subject, we are making a video that includes real life experiences in bullying.
If you are someone who is willing to submit their story to be used in the video, submit it into this google form: http://goo.gl/forms/rJHEVDs50l
The entry will be anonymous, and if it is chosen, someone will tell your story. However, if you want to be the one to tell your experience in the video, include your name and grade in the submission. (No one will be shown in the video because we are using a silhouette/shadow concept)
The due date for entries is 3:00pm on Thursday 10/1. Four entries will be chosen, and if it is not anonymous, you will be contacted on this day, and will be asked to film on the following Friday 10/2 after school.
Thank you.

Hey everyone!
There will be an OC Science meeting this Wednesday, September 30th, in Mrs. Johnson's room!!
Tell all your friends and bring them along! We will be discussing our first three volunteering opportunities and our progress with our Bathgate event!
Our mission here at OC Science is to spread the influence and awareness of STEAM education. We accomplish this by introducing these ideas to kids at an early age. If they come in contact with it at an early age, they will have more time to adjust and enjoy it. Our mission is to harness that and show children around Orange County how cool science really is. If you love science or working with children, come to the meeting on Wednesday and check us out at Club Rush!!

CUSD Honors Classes Added
For the 2015-2016 school year we have added six Honors Courses to our course offerings: Honors English I, Honors English I ATMS, Honors English II, Honors English II ATMS, Honors Algebra 2/Trigonometry and Honors Algebra 2/Trigonometry ATMS. These courses have been approved by the University of California system as district level honors courses which means that they are considered honors courses for our own Grade Point Average calculations. Each of these courses will be weighted by CUSD but this weighted grade is not recognized as a UC Honors weighted course. Even though the weighted grade would not be counted by UCs there are many other universities that would recognize this grade bump. If you have any further question please speak with your child's Academic Advisor.

Important Notice Regarding Use of School Loop & Parent Portal
School Loop will be re-activated and available to use from the first day of the new school year. Parents and students will not be able to register new accounts or login to existing accounts until this time. School Loop is school-specific, so if you are new to the school, and had an account at a different CUSD school, you will still need to register for an account again through the new school's website. The link is on the homepage of the school's website. You will need the Student ID Number and an email address to complete this process.
School Loop is a different application to the Parent Portal. It is available to secondary level parents and students only. Parents are encouraged to use both applications.
The Parent Portal may be accessed at any time during the school year and parent and student accounts only needs to be established once as they rollover with updated student data each year. Don't have a portal account? Contact the school office for your child to request the information needed to create an account.
The Parent Portal is only accessible to parents of students in the current 2014-15 school year. Information on obtaining transcripts for graduated students may be found on the CUSD website.
Please direct any additional questions to your school office which re-opens to the public on Monday, August 11th from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm.

Capistrano Unified Announces Next Superintendent
Kirsten Vital to Lead the Highest-Performing, Large School District in California
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO— Kirsten M. Vital has been named the new Superintendent of the Capistrano Unified School District, succeeding Dr. Joseph M. Farley who will retire on July 1, 2014, as the leader of Orange County's second-largest school district.
The Board of Trustees made the selection of Ms. Vital following a closed session meeting on June 14, 2014. A contract is expected to be ratified on Wednesday, June 25 at the Board of Trustees' regularly scheduled meeting.
Ms. Vital Superintendent comes to CUSD from Alameda Unified School District in Alameda, California, where she is Superintendent.
A seasoned educator, Ms. Vital has held key leadership positions in some of California's largest districts, including Los Angeles Unified School District and Oakland Unified School District. Vital has been a teacher, an assistant principal, principal, and a college professor.
To find the ideal candidate, the Board of Trustees conducted a nationwide search. The search was guided by a detailed list of leadership criteria, a web-based survey, community forum, and responses from focus groups representing community and district stakeholders.
Board President John M. Alpay expressed his confidence in Vital, "We wanted to ensure that we had the right person for this very important role during this critical time in our District," he said. "Because of her demonstrated track record of success, the Board of Trustees is certain that Kirsten Vital is the right leader who will take our District to new heights of student achievement."
Retiring Superintendent Dr. Joseph M. Farley has been widely praised for his leadership of the District over the last four years. Capistrano Unified schools have consistently ranked in the top one percent of California's public schools. Successfully weathering the most recent economic recession, the District's fiscal position was certified as "positive" by the Orange County Department of Education.
With over 4,000 employees, the new Superintendent will take the helm of the largest employer in South Orange County.

District High Schools Rank Among Nation's Elite
All District Comprehensive High Schools Earn Silver Medals in Magazine's Latest Evaluation
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO — All six comprehensive high schools in Capistrano Unified School District were identified as among the elite in the latest state and national rankings released by U.S. News & World Report magazine.
The magazine examined more than 19,400 public high schools in 50 states plus the District of Columbia using data from the 2011-12 school year. The top 24 percent of eligible schools in this national review were awarded either gold, silver, or bronze medals .
The six CUSD high schools earned silver medals with rankings in the top 5 percent, according to the magazine's analysis. Among District high schools, Tesoro placed highest nationally at 545 followed by Dana Hills, 605; Aliso Niguel, 753; San Clemente; 757; San Juan Hills, 787; and Capistrano Valley, 823.
"These new nationwide high school rankings place our six medal-earning comprehensive high schools among the best in the nation, and is yet again another means of confirmation that our students are receiving an exceptional education," said Board President John M. Alpay. "This survey also validates the decision made to make classroom instruction our top priority, and further recognizes the contributions of all our employees who have more than diligently implemented this emphasis."
Of the 2,026 public high schools in the state, 600 earned medals, and only gold or silver schools were eligible for a state ranking in California. Tesoro ranked 114 th in the state followed by Dana Hills, 124; Aliso Niguel, 152; San Clemente; 153; San Juan Hills, 159; and Capistrano Valley, 168.
The six evaluated and ranked comprehensive high schools bettered the state's academic goals and scored highly on the college readiness index, which measures student participation and performance on Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate tests.

CSF Spring Application Process
Pay Attention! There is a N EW APPLICATION PROCESS
You must include a SIGNED (by your guidance counselor) print out of your Fall 2013 grades. Semester grades and citizenship grades will be checked. PRINT OUT A COPY OF YOUR FALL 2013 SEMESTER GRADES AND CITIZENSHIP GRADES FROM YOUR STUDENT PORTAL. BRING THAT PRINTOUT TO YOUR GUIDANCE COUNSELOR WHO WILL SIGN IT TO VERIFY ITS AUTHENTICITY. APPLICATIONS WITHOUT A SIGNED PRINTOUT OF YOUR GRADES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE TO GET YOUR GRADES VERIFIED. As you can imagine, many students will be scrambling at the last minute to get their fall grades signed off by their guidance counselor. You may have to wait in LONG lines to get to see your counselor if you wait until the last day. Many students were DENIED membership last semester because they simply waited TOO long to start the process. DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU!
Remember, freshman who are looking to join the club can now apply for membership.
Start your application NOW and *gasp* turn it in early to avoid any mishaps!
For easy reference, CSF Spring Application.
Applications are due on March 7 by the end of lunch.
Please do not forget to attach your $10 club donation!

These stories take place on one magical Friday night in the dead of winter where the northern lights seem to make the residents of Almost fall in and out of love in the strangest of ways. It's hilarious, heartfelt, and you won't want to miss it! :)

One World meeting on Monday CANCELED!!
Hey One World"ies",
Today I went to Home Depot to go get the flowers to plant. While talking to the gardening guy, I concluded that plating the plants tomorrow (Monday, 1/13) is not the best idea. With his input, I've decided this:
We will buy the plants 1 1/2 - 2 weeks before they will be destributed. By then, we will have more of an idea of how many flowers we will need. Not only that though, we will transplant the flowers from their original "packaging" straight into the cups and cans that we will destribute them in. The garden expert at Home Depot said that if we do it this way, the flowers will be caused less damage.
While Monday's after-school meeting IS canceled, Tuesday's lunch meeting IS NOT! We have a lot to go over, and a lot to still plan. I have made up the budget plan for the fundraiser and I would like to go over it with everyone.
LASTLY:Remember to make your poster! If everyone makes ONE poster and gets it approved, than we can make copies and have LOTS of posters. Which = LOTS OF PUBLICITY!!!! YAY!(:
So remember, no meeting Monday. Meeting Tuesday. Get posters done, approved by ASB, and UP by Friday 1/17
See you Tuesday everyone!
Always,
Sarina Rubin

Animal Welfare Club Bake Sale- Volunteering Hours!!!
Hey Guys! The Animal Welfare Club is hosting a bake sale Tuesday, the 31st in front of Pavilions (off Marguerite and Oso) from 11 AM to 4 PM. This is a great way to earn volunteering hours for helping! Bring a batch of anything "dessertish" (whether it be cookies, brownies, rainbow jello, or anything else that is yummy.) Make sure that your batch has a substantial amount of servings (30 plus items) and that you bring plates/napkins to provide customers with the item. Because it will be New Years Eve, try to make your item fit the festivities (like cookies that say "Happy New Year" or something.) There is a google doc. list that you must sign your name on to attend the sale. Also, if you see that a majority of people are bringing the same item, try to bring something different to increase the variety of food available. If you are unable to access the file, reply to this message with your name and the item you are bringing (and amount of that item.) If you have any questions, please reply to this message. All proceeds will be donated to these charities: FixNation and Spay Neuter Project LA (and for a club member's medical bill for her injured dog.) By 11 AM we will have a table set up in front of Pavilions, so try to be on time! I'm exited to see many of you at the sale, and I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas and Winter Break!

Important Notice Regarding Use of Schoolloop
Schoolloop will be re-activated and available to use from the first day of the new school year. Parents and students will not be able to register new accounts or login to existing accounts until this time. Schoolloop is school-specific, so if you are new to the school, and had an account at a different CUSD school, you will still need to register for an account again through the new school's website. The link is on the homepage of the school's website. You will need the Student ID Number and an email address to complete this process.
Schoolloop is a different application to the Parent Portal. It is available to secondary level parents and students only. Parents are encouraged to use both applications.
The Parent Portal may be accessed at any time during the school year and parent and student accounts only needs to be established once as they rollover with updated student data each year.

All Students - Spring Semester classes
If your student earns a D or F in one of his/her fall classes, you may need to reconsider the classes he/she is scheduled to take for the spring. A level change to a lower level course maybe in order.
Those students on the college prep track must earn a C or better in college prep classes to be eligible for college admission directly after high school . As a re-fresher, here are the A-G requirements for admission to the UC and CSU systems:
Area | Subject | Years |
a. | Social Science (Including 1 year of U.S. History) | 2 |
b. | English (College prep; English comp and literature) | 4 |
c. | Math (Including Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II or higher math) | 3 |
d. | Laboratory Science (Including 1 year life; 1 year physical) | 2 |
e. | Language other than English (same language) | 2 |
f. | Visual and performing Art (drama, dance or theatre, music or visual art) | 1 |
g. | College Preparatory Elective (Additional year chosen from the UC A-G list) | 1 |
Students currently earning a D or F in an AP or accelerated class should consider a level change. Frank discussions with your teachers are recommended. If a decision is made to level change, a SCHEDULE CHANGE REQUEST form needs to be completed and turned in to your student's Academic Advisor.
Some students will need to make up classes during summer school. We do not have information or availability at this time. When we get it, we will distribute it on List Serve and School Loop.

Seniors that applied to the UC system
Following is some important information from the UC system:
Ordering test score reports
If your students have not already submitted their official ACT and SAT test scores, please have them do so immediately. As a reminder, students who have not submitted official scores should do the following:
1. After receiving their scores, students should log into their My UC Application and self-report their examination scores. The test scores submitted on the application for undergraduate admission are considered unofficial.
2. Students should request that an official score report be sent by the College Board (for the SAT) and by ACT to at least one UC campus to which they applied. UC does not recommend applicants use the College Board's Score Choice function or Rush Score delivery. All official test scores can be submitted to one campus, as test scores are disseminated to all campuses to which the student has applied.
If a student has recently ordered official reports sent to the university, he should log onto the My UC Application website http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/how-to-apply/after-you-apply to check the most current scores we have on file.
If a student is missing official scores, he should contact the respective testing agency as follows:
ACT: (319) 337-1313 or www.actstudent.org/scores/send/
SAT: (866) 756-7346 or www.collegeboard.com/sat/html/students/adlscor.html
Updating the application
Freshmen applicants: If there are changes to a student's academic record (if a student changes schools, adds or drops a course, or fails to earn a C or better in a course after submitting the application), the student must notify — by mail — the UC Application Center. We encourage students to explain the reason(s) for the academic record updates in the letter. The letter must also include the student's name, UC Application ID number and signature, and will be shared with all the campuses the student applied to. Mail to:
UC Application Center
P.O. Box1432
Bakersfield, CA 93302
Transcript submission reminder
Final, official transcripts/academic records and AP/IB exam scores must be submitted by July 15, after the student accepts an admission offer to the one UC campus at which the student plans to enroll (unless specifically asked by a campus prior to the admission decision). We strongly encourage submission by July 1, but all official documents must be received at the UC campus admission office by July 15. Students must refer to documentation provided by the campus for the correct mailing address.
Early Decision: withdrawing the application
Applicants who wish to withdraw/cancel their UC application must write to each UC campus to which they applied. Please visit our website for campus-specific instructions and contact information: http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/counselors/q-and-a/miscellaneous/index.html#17
Application Verification Process
This month, UC will conduct its application verification process to ensure applicants have not misrepresented or falsified personal or academic information. The process will impact a select, random sample of applicants who should have received notices at the end of December. If your students have received the letter, they should be reassured that the request is the result of a random selection process and in no way suggests any of the information in their application is inaccurate. These students have until Jan. 31 to submit their responses. Applicants with questions about the verification process should contact the UC Application Center:
Hours: Monday – Friday, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. PST
(800) 207-1710 (for callers within the U.S.)
(661) 336-5723 (for callers outside the U.S.)

Board of Trustee Message regarding Connecticut Tragedy
To: The CUSD Community and Staff
Re: Today's Tragic Events in Connecticut
As you undoubtedly know, today, a school-related shooting in Connecticut resulted in the tragic loss of children and school staff. This message is sent on behalf of Board President John Alpay, and the entire Board of Trustees of the Capistrano Unified School District, to express their deepest sympathy to everyone impacted by these events.
Parents may be interested in supportive information on how to discuss tragic events like these with their children. Such resources are available at the following website:
http://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/ss/cp/tragedy.asp .
A natural response to school tragedies is an increased concern for the safety of one's own family. You should know that the Capistrano Unified School District works collaboratively with the Orange County Sheriff's Department, and other agencies, to protect our students, staff, and school communities.
Thank you,
Joseph M. Farley
Superintendent

College Campus Tours - (all students)
Visiting a college campus is the best way to help you decide if it is the place for you. We recommend you take the tour that is offered. Your tour guide will be well versed in all matters of college information and trivia. Understand that this tour is a marketing tool for the campus.
Do some research on your own as well. Ask questions of students you meet in the student store. Walk around to other parts of the campus. Drive around the campus and the surrounding area.
Follow the link to a list of questions for your visit. Take notes during and after - take pictures - colleges will start to look the same after you have seen 5 or 6 of them. Go with someone who knows you well and understands what you want out of college. Enjoy the process as this is an exciting time!

CST Grade Incentives for Mathematics
The Grade Incentive policy detailed on the yellow flyer students received today is in error with regard to the Mathematics Department.
The policy in effect for this testing/incentive cycle is limited to a 3% boost in a semester's grade percentage for students performing at a proficient level and a 5% boost for advanced level on their math CST. Students improving from below or far below basic level in the previous year to a higher level last year can also earn a 3% grade boost for one semester's grade.
For students who were in an AP, IB, or Honors level class taking the Summative High School Mathematics CST, only a 3% boost will be applied, and only for advanced level performance.
Additionally, there is no grade boost applicable for high performance on the AP or IB exams in mathematics.
The precise Math Department Grade Incentive policy for 2012, as provided and promoted last spring, is attached to this announcement. We regret the error made by including an obsolete policy with the current flyer, and we apologize for any inconvenience this creates.

CVHS Theater Remains On Schedule, On Budget
New Contractor to Complete Project
Reports of the pending bankruptcy of Edge Development, Inc., the company that won the contract to build the performing arts center at Capistrano Valley High School, will not delay the theater's opening, which is anticipated for June 2013.
"This is the reason the District has insurance and a strong construction manager," Superintendent Joe Farley said. "These problems occur with public works projects, but we are confident that the new contractor will finish this project on time and on budget. Thanks to the Board of Trustees' wisdom in delaying this project to set up the proper controls and oversight, the CVHS student body and community will have a state-of-the-art performing arts center that will come in on time and on budget."
The District's insurance company has already identified a new contractor for the project. The new contractor will keep the current project superintendent and subcontractors on the project, ensuring continuity.
The theater will have a seating capacity of 446 for performances. The center also boasts several teaching stations, including a black box theater, production digital recording studio, stage craft area, and stage, sound, and lighting labs. The facility will also house band and choir classrooms, practice rooms, offices, and equipment storage.
The theater's $13.5 million construction budget is being funded through a $3 million Career Technical Education (CTE) grant from the state Department of Education and through the Mello-Roos assessments collected in Community Facilities District 87-1, which includes the parts of Mission Viejo and Aliso Viejo.

START THE YEAR OFF RIGHT!
Welcome back Cougars! I look forward to seeing you and to hear of your summer break! I hope you are rested and refreshed and ready to begin the school year. Remember, you alone determine if this year will be a great one or a real drag…….it is completely your choice. Let me share some expectations that can help you make this year hassle free:
- BE PREPARED FOR EVERY CLASS- Binder, folder, pen, pencil, book (even if you aren't sure you'll use it!). Doing so shows your teachers that you are there to learn, and that you care! Not being prepared sends the exact opposite message to your teacher. Your choice………….
- BE ON TIME- There should be no tardies ever, really! No excuses. Plan ahead! On block days each class is followed by a 15 minute break, or 35 minute lunch! You have plenty of time to do everything you need to do and to get to class on time. Again, send your teacher the right message. That message might be the difference between an "A-"or a "B+" or a "D-"or an "F" at the semester. Your choice………..
- MAKE SURE YOUR ABSENCES ARE LEGIT AND THAT YOUR PARENTS EXCUSE THEM IN A TIMELY MANNER- Absences not cleared within 72 hours will change into truancies. 3 truancies equal a Saturday School, and a Behavior Contract. Failure to serve will result in SUSPENSION! Your choice…………
- KNOW THE DRESS CODE- Seriously ladies, know the appropriate length of shorts and skirts and dresses! Tops that fall off the shoulder, reveal your midriff, or are transparent are not acceptable for school. You will be asked to change, given a Behavior Contract, or sent home. Again, your choice…………
The entire Discipline Policy is on the CVHS.com website. You are responsible to know the rules, and to abide by them. If you have any questions or concerns see me!

CSF Talent Show
Capo Valley Students,
The California Scholarship Federation's annual talent show will be on Saturday, May 26th from 7:30 to around 9 PM in the CVHS mall. And we are still looking for more performers!
If you or your friends or anyone you know has an impressive talent/skill that they would be willing to perform, by all means stop by Mrs. Harrington's room and pick up an application, or print out the attached form and turn it in. Most likely they WILL be accepted to perform. The normal guitar/singing is good, but we've also had baton twirling, live DJ mixing, comedy acts, orchestral pieces, and even soccer ball juggling.
Anything funny or interesting or strange or cool or whatever! It's a fun, creative event, so please, SPREAD THE WORD!
The new performer application deadline will be next Friday, May 11th by the end of lunch in Mrs. Harrington's room, H12. If you have questions, ask any of us, or send an email to capocsf@gmail.com. Thanks!
Sincerely,
Nick Burakoff, Eric Nguyen, Brian Weisbecker, Tin Ngo

Important Parent Portal Registration Information- sign- up by June 22!!
Dear Parents:
The CUSD Parent Portal is now available for parents of all current K-12 students. We strongly encourage you to register for a Parent Portal account before school offices close in June, so you are able to take advantage of the new online re-registration system for the 2012-13 school year. When the window opens in August, parents with portal accounts will have the ability to use this online system for re-registration, rather than completing the large, traditional paper packet. Parents will also have the ability at any time during the year to update student demographic and emergency contact records, view real-time daily attendance reports, print report cards and transcripts and also be able to download important documents directly from the portal.
Letters were mailed home the week of February 13 to parents of secondary students with specific information related to Parent Portal account creation. Parents of elementary students received their letters during parent conferences. The information in the letter includes your student's ID, home phone, and a unique verification code which will be needed during the portal registration process. Using the information from the letter, simply logon to abi.capousd.org where you will find directions and a link for creating your Parent Portal account. There is also a portal link on each school's homepage. A HELP link is available at abi.capousd.org if you have questions during the registration process. If you have lost your letter, please contact your school office before the last day of school.

Art Contest - Great prizes
The City of Mission is sponsoring a Sustainable Art Competition for local high school students which could earn $500 for the art program at Capistrano Valley High School. If this sounds interesting, please keep reading to find out how you can be involved.
On May 5 and 6, the City of Mission Viejo will celebrate its investment in the arts, economy, environment, education and a healthy civic life at its Sixth Annual Arts Alive Festival. Arts Alive will showcase different art mediums such as printmaking, photography, painting, ceramics, and sustainable environmental art and will include a progression of "Outdoor Studios" offering hands on creative activities for education, interaction, volunteering and everything art. The festival will provide a large-scale community project as well as an opportunity to learn, participate and expand one's mind into the world of art.
This year, to celebrate its commitment to the environment the City is offering a Sustainable Art Competition for local high school students, so we are contacting local art teachers to ask them to encourage their students to submit an Sustainable Art entry. This contest provides a first, second, and third place prize for student artists along with $500 cash prize to the high school art program for the school that submits the most entries in the contest.
All artwork submitted must fall in one or both of the categories listed below:
- Trash to Treasure: Artwork must be composed of items destined for the trash (non-toxics items only) or recycling bin. We are seeking projects that contain recycled, reused, of repurposed materials.
AND/OR
- Environmental Message: Artwork must convey a message that focuses on the planet and protection of the environment. For example, the message could highlight ways to enhance and protect our environment, or focus on how our actions today will impact our planet and future generations.
All entries will be displayed in a special Sustainable Art Studio at the Arts Alive Festival on May 5and 6. We hope you will encourage Capistrano Valley High School students to participate in this contest.

Brony Week!
Hello fellow Anime Clubbers!
This week we will be exploring an offshoot of anime sub-culture: bronies, a rapidly growing internet fandom. Primarily anime fans or members of anime forums, bronies have produced high-quality artwork, and are devoted fans of, the most recent generation of "My Little Pony".
While it is recalls styles in early North American animation, certain genres of Anime, and many early NES games, it has had to shed its reputation as an effeminate, cut-and-dry franchise used as a marketing tool for selling fillies' toy
To all those interested, we'll be watching the first two episodes this week. We'll be introduced to the central six characters of the series, and watch as they are pitted against the formidable villain Nightmare Moon.
Has the new series managed to triumph stereotypes? Or has the historic, girly reputation of the series turned an ambitious animator's aims into a polychromatic, pastel Train wreck?
You be the judge!
This concludes our MLP original character collage, which is due in by the Tuesday meeting. That day, we will have a brief "Bronies 101" orientation put together by our resident internet culture expert. Then we plunge into Episode 1 of the series.
March 1st, which is the second day of Brony week, is recognized as "Derpy Hooves Day". Invented by bronies, it commemorates the fan-named character Derpy Hooves, a grey, cross-eyed pegasus who has appeared in the background of several episodes and has gained a cult following, so to speak. Remember to wear grey, eat muffins, and be generally derp!
March 1st we'll also watch Episode 2, and (hopefully) be able to have a brief discussion on the series. We're really eager to hear your opinion!
Want more? Interested in joining "The Herd"? Swing by room B8 at lunch every Tuesday and Thursday! We have many members who are involved with brony culture who'll point you in the right direction!
Hope to see you all there, and

Secondary Parent Portal Registration Now Available!
The CUSD Parent Portal is now available for all parents of K-12 students. We strongly encourage parents to register for a Parent Portal account because in the future through the use of Parent Portal, we are looking to provide parents with the ability to re-register students, update student demographic records, print report cards, and download important documents directly from the portal.
Letters are being mailed home the week of February 13 to parents of secondary students with specific information related to Parent Portal registration. The information in the letter includes your student's ID, home phone, and a unique verification code which you will need during the registration process. After receiving the letter, simply log onto https://abi.capousd.org/ where you will find directions and a link for creating your Parent Portal account. A HELP link is included in case you have any questions.
The Parent Portal information was shared with elementary parents at parent conferences in November. If you cannot locate that information or have questions, your school office staff can assist.

Advanced Drama's "EAT: It's Not About Food"
1/27 & 1/28 7:00pm, $3 w/ASB $5 w/o
Join us on Friday and Saturday (January 27th and 28th) for Mrs.Tucker's Advanced Drama's performance of their play: EAT: It's Not About Food. This is a play about teenagers suffering with eating disorders, and the emotional implications that come with it. There are many ways to fall victim to eating disorders, so this play represents all of them: the boy who is trying to make weight for his wrestling team, the girl who is obsessed with her calorie intake, the young girl who watches while her mom tries every popular diet, the boy who binges on food, just to purge later on because he doesn't have any friends, the teacher who is insensitive to the struggles his students are going through, the movie star who is supposed to be a role model but instead inspires girls to starve themselves, and the girl who stops eating all together, and ends up in the hospital to the surprise of her unknowing parents. Come share this experience with us as we explore the lonely, emotional world of teenage eating disorders.

Some of you attended the meeting on Monday during lunch to sign up for the Math contest. If you could not attend the meeting and would still like to participate please contact me on school loop and I will add your name to the sign up sheet.

AMC Math Competition.:
All students interested in participating in the American Mathematics competition are requested to attend a meeting on Monday, December 5 during lunch in room M-24.
The AMC is a 25 question, 75 minute multiple choice examination in secondary school mathematics containing
problems which can be understood and solved with pre-calculus concepts.
AMC will be given on Wednesday, February 22, 2012 .
Purpose
The main purpose of the AMC is to spur interest in mathematics and to develop talent through the excitement of
solving challenging problems in a timed multiple-choice format. The problems range from the very easy to the
extremely difficult. Students who participate in the AMC should find that most of the problems are challenging but
within their grasp. The contest is intended for everyone from the average student at a typical school who enjoys
mathematics to the very best student at the most special school.
A special purpose of the AMC is to help identify those few students with truly exceptional mathematics talent.
Students who are among the very best deserve some indication of how they stand relative to other students in the
country and around the world . The AMC provides one such indication, and it is the first in a series of
examinations. In this way the very best young mathematicians are recognized, encouraged and developed.
Additional information can be found on this website.

7 Mistakes Families Make Planning for College ... but Don't Know Until It's Too Late
Keynote Speaker: Tom Bottorf
Founder of GetCollegeFunding
Some topics to be covered:
· Learn why it's so important for your student to create a REALISTIC college list.
· What if your family WON'T qualify for financial aid?
· Beware of college "Sticker Price". For some families private colleges may cost LESS than publics!
· Learn how to improve the chances of getting IN and OUT of college in 4 years.
· Many families qualify for more "free money" than they would have thought possible – need-based and/or merit-based
· Home equity will have no impact on financial aid in about 90% of all the colleges across America
· In the unfortunate case of a separation or divorce most colleges won't ask about the income and assets of the non-custodial parent
· Two students in college? Your eligibility for university grants may increase!

SCHOOLS CLOSED ON FRIDAY DUE TO POWER OUTAGE
All schools in the Capistrano Unified School District (CUSD) will be closed on Friday, Sept. 9, 2011, due to the power outage affecting Southern Orange and San Diego counties.
The District, like many school districts serviced by San Diego Gas and Electric, has decided to cancel classes for its students. A decision regarding Friday evening sporting events has not yet been made.
"We have no assurance that power will be restored by the time school begins tomorrow morning, and local emergency jurisdictions have advised the District to suspend classes until power is restored," Superintendent Joe Farley said. "We are sorry for the obvious inconvenience to our working families, but it is clearly not proper to have students in school without electricity to power key systems including lights, refrigeration, and computers."
The decision to close schools was made for a number of reasons, including the lack of power at school sites and the difficulty many staff members will have commuting to work from their homes in Orange, Riverside and San Diego counties. Only the CUSD staff members who have been specifically notified should report to work on Friday, Sept. 9.
Power is expected to be restored in time for school on Monday. For more information, please call the District's Hotline at (949) 234-5575, which will be open at 7 a.m. or visit the District website at www.capousd.org.

Dress Code! A Reminder for Parents and Students
As Southern Californians, we enjoy the warm weather that summer brings and will continue to well after the opening of school on September 7. During these days of summer, clothing is casual, cool, minimal(!), certainly summer and beach appropriate. However, as the venue changes so must the attire!
As an assistant principal of discipline, I am reminding all students and the parents who buy the student clothing, to be mindful of the dress code policy here at CVHS. For example, tube tops, strapless tops (even if covered), low necklines showing cleavage, midrif tops, the newest fashion rage.....short shorts AKA Daisy Dukes and large armhole tank tops for boys. Students should dress for school as they would for their job, following company dress codes and policies (written or otherwise). We want all students (and staff) to be comfortable, respectful to others and themselves, not cause a distraction or disrupt the education of students, and most importantly, be safe.
Please become familar with the policy while shopping for school clothes. And, be aware that if your son or daughter is found to be in violation of our dress code, there will be consequences (removal from class, detention, Saturday school, and even suspension) and you may even be inconvenienced to bring a change of clothing to school.
Lets avoid this scenario, know the rules, follow them, dress appropriately, and have a great year!

Trustees Name New Principal at CVHS
Former Spanish Teacher, Junior High Administrator Appointed to Position
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO—Capistrano Unified School District Trustees on Wednesday afternoon namedKevin E. Astor, Ed.D. as principal of Capistrano Valley High School (CVHS).
"We are excited to have Kevin join the administrative team," Superintendent Joe Farley said. "His commitment to academic excellence and a well-rounded school culture will ensure the continued success of each and every student at Capistrano Valley High School."
Astor replaces interim principal Cheryl Baughn, a retired administrator who filled the position when Deni Christensen became Executive Director of Secondary Education.
"I couldn't be more excited about this opportunity," Astor said. "Every step of the process kept confirming that this was a great chance for me to be a part of what is happening in Capistrano Unified. The District has a long history of success. Now it is taking another step forward and growing in a dynamic way. I want to be a part of that process to meet the needs of our students."
CVHS, home to one of the District's two high school International Baccalaureate programs, was recently ranked No. 459 in the annual list of America's Best High Schools by Newsweek magazine. The school can also boast one of the state's top marching bands, with four state titles since 2002, a six-year accreditation from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, and a highly respected athletic program.
Astor began his career teaching Spanish at the middle school level in 1993. He became an assistant principal in 1999 and a principal in 2006. Astor has bachelor's degrees in Hispanic Language and Literature and Modern Foreign Language Education from Boston University, a master's degree in Education Administration from United States International University, and a doctorate in Educational Leadership from the University of Southern California.

CST Incentives
Capistrano Valley High School
California Standards Test (CST) Extra Credit Incentives
IMPORTANT:
EXTRA CREDIT INCENTIVE PROGRAM BASED ON STAR/CST SCORES:
Students and Parents: Once again this year, the CVHS math, English (new this year), science, and social science departments will offer possible extra credit incentives tied to performance on the STAR California Standards Tests (CST), which are given to all 9th, 10th and 11th grade students each May. Test results are then mailed home to each student in August. At that time, if you believe that your student's CST test scores qualifies him/her for a possible incentive based upon the criteria listed below for each core subject area, he/she MUST see his/her teacher in the fall by the published deadline, which will be announced at the start of the school year. (If the teacher is no longer at CVHS, students should see the department chair.) Remember, it is the student's responsibility to see the teacher in order to receive any possible extra credit incentive increase, and no late requests will be honored. The specific criteria for for each department are listed below, and all questions must be referred directly to the teacher.
MATH DEPARTMENT:
Level I Math Incentives:
(The following incentives will apply to all math students, EXCEPT those students enrolled in Honors Precalculus, or any Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) math class. The incentives for these students are listed separately below in the section entitled "Level II Math Incentives.") Students who score at a "proficient" or "advanced" level or have an increase of at least one CST testing level over the previous year's CST scores may qualify for one of the following incentives. Specifically, students scoring "advanced" may earn a 10% increase in their final percentage for the semester of their choice. Example: A student who had an 82% will earn an increase of 8.2% (10% of 82) for a new percentage of 90.2%. Students scoring at the "proficient" level will earn a 5% increase in their final percentage for the semester of their choice. Example: A student who had an 82% will earn an increase of 4.1% (5% of 82) for a new percentage of 86.1%. Students who achieve a one-level increase, such as from "below basic" to "basic," will earn a 5% increase in their final percentage for the semester of their choice (as above). Students who achieve a two-level increase, such as from "far below basic" to "basic," will earn a 7% increase in their final percentage for the semester of their choice. Students MAY use this incentive to raise a FAILING grade if they earn "proficient" or "advanced" level in the subject in which they were enrolled (i.e. Algebra, Geometry, Algebra II). Students who earned "proficient" or "advanced" on a corresponding CST exam will earn a minimum passing grade of D- for the semester of their choice, regardless of the percentage of points earned for that semester; however, this particular incentive stipulation does NOT apply to Precalculus or Introductory Statistics since there is no CST exams for these courses.
Level II Math Incentives:
(The following incentives will apply to those math students enrolled in Honors Precalculus, or any Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) math class.) Since the grades for these math classes are already weighted on a 5-point scale, and since the content of these courses is not tested on California CST exams, the CST incentive for these course grades will be limited to a maximum of 5% of the grade for a score of "advanced," and 2.5% for a score of "proficient."
For both Level I and Level II Math incentives, students may receive only one STAR/CST incentive bonus in math per school year, and all possible grade incentives must be initiated by the student contacting the teacher by the established deadline.
ENGLISH DEPARTMENT:
The English Department has adopted the "10, 5, 5" point increase incentive plan. Students can receive no more than one of the following incentives: 10% added to their final second semester grade for moving up two levels from the previous year's CST performance, or 5% added to their final second semester grade for moving up one level from the previous year's CST performance. Students who maintain either a "proficient" or "advanced" status will receive a 5% point bonus on their second semester final assessment/test.NOTE: It is the student's responsibility to contact the teacher by the established deadline in order to initiate any possible grade change. CST grade boost incentives will NOT apply to AP or IB courses.
SCIENCE DEPARTMENT:
Up to 10% grade boost on final exam for the course corresponding to a CST score of "advanced." Example: A student who earned an "advanced" score on the biology CST may petition the biology teacher to add points to the final exam and then re-calculate the overall semester grade for the course. The student must contact the teacher by the established deadline in order to request any grade incentive recalculation
SOCIAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT:
The social science department has adopted the "10, 10, 5, 5" incentive plan. Students can receive no more than one of the following incentives: 10% added to their final semester grade for a CST score of "advanced," or 10% for jumping two levels from the previous year's CST performance, or 5% for a score of "proficient," or 5% for jumping one level from the previous year's CST performance. It is the student's responsibility to contact the teacher by the established deadline in order to initiate any possible grade change.
AP/IB courses do not offer test incentives.

West Side Story
The spring musical, West Side Story, opens on Wednesday night at 7:30pm and runs through Saturday night. Tickets are $12 General Admission, and $10 w/ASB card. There are no pre-sale tickets, so make sure to get here early to reserve your seat.
West Side Story is an updated adaptation of Shakespeare's classic, Romeo and Juliet. Our play is set in 1950s New York City, and the feud is based on racism between the white gang and the Puerto Rican gang. As might be expected, a boy and a girl from each gang fall in love with each other, despite the disapproval of their friends and families. This is a tragic story of two people trusting that love will overcome all obstacles. It is all surrounded by beautiful songs (written by Leonard Bernstein) and ground-breaking choreography (originally composed by Jerome Robbins, but added to and enhanced by our choreographer, Cris Stuart).
Please come and enjoy the show.
See you there!

CVHS Interim Principal Named
Dear Parents and Students,
I am very pleased to announce that Dr. Cheryl Baughn will serve as Capistrano Valley High School's Interim Principal and will begin transitioning with me during the week of April 25-29, 2011. Dr. Baughn will then formally take over as Interim Principal on Monday, May 2nd, at which time I will begin reporting to the district office in my new position. However, as promised, I will anxiously look forward to returning to take part in student awards ceremonies and graduation commencement for our class of 2011 seniors.
Dr. Baughn is a name very familiar to those within CUSD and to many within our surrounding communities. Prior to retirement just a short time ago, Dr. Baughn served as Principal of Bernice Ayer Middle School in San Clemente, and prior to that, she held several positions within the Laguna Beach School District including: teacher, assistant principal, principal, and Interim Superintendent. I know that Dr. Baughn will be a wonderful asset to Capo Valley during this time of transition while the district moves forward in the extensive selection process to secure a permanent principal prior to the start of school next fall. I am confident that our school and community will extend Dr. Baughn a warm welcome and the cooperation and assistance we are known for here at Capo.
Welcome Dr. Baughn!

College selection series for parents and students
Everything You Need to Know About the College Selection Process (but were afraid to ask!)
With Pat Levens, former Executive Director of Secondary Education, CUSD
A 3-Part Workshop Presenting the Following Topics:
Session I: Selecting the Right College for You:
The most important and difficult decision for high school students is college selection. In this session, students and
parents will learn the questions to ask that will lead to selecting the campus best suited to that individual.
They will also learn the questions to ask and answer when visiting a college campus.
Session II: Succeeding in College:
What I Can Do to Prepare for Success at the 4-year College? The American Association of University Professors (AAUP) and the Academic Senates of UC, CSU and the California Community Colleges have published a series of guidelines for what students need to know and be able to do as entering freshmen. Since slightly more than 51 percent of all students admitted to four-year schools ever graduate, it is important to know, understand,
and prepare for success when a student matriculates
Session III: Is There Something Beyond the UC?:
Sleeper Colleges You Don't Know About But May Want to Attend With over 80,000 applicants and 4,400 admits at UCLA in 2010, students must be smart shoppers. They need to learn of schools in and out of California that are near and far, which offer excellent learning opportunities and are less competitive for entry. In this session, the audience will learn of 35 schools that offer such opportunities to students, but are not well known by Californians.
Three Tuesdays: May 3, May 10 and May 17, 2011; 6-9pm

Important Announcement
Dear Parents, Students and Capo Community Members,
After receiving word of the Board's approval at last night's CUSD Board Meeting, I wanted to let you know that I have accepted the position of Executive Director Secondary Schools, Adult and Alternative Programs. Some of you may have already read this news either in the newspaper or on an internet blog, but I wanted to also follow up and let you know personally.
While this new position represents a wonderful opportunity for me to move into a new and exciting position of leadership within our district, it is certainly with very mixed emotions that I will prepare to leave Capo Valley High School – a place that I have called "home" for the past five years, and one that has brought me so much joy, satisfaction and reward – thanks to our wonderful students, staff, parents and community.At this point, I do not yet have any further information to offer in terms of a transition timeline, etc., but please know that I will certainly communicate more information as soon as I have it. In addition, please be assured that I will make every effort to remain involved in end-of-the year student and senior awards, as well as the graduation ceremony for our class of 2011. The district announced in a press release that they intend to conduct a "rigorous selection process to find a new principal for CVHS with the goal of having a successor named by the start of the school year." I will be involved in this process in order to ensure that we select the best possible candidate for Capo.
In the meantime, please accept my heartfelt thanks to each of you for your many and varied contributions to our school, as well as your tireless commitment to our school's central mission. Without question, the accomplishments that our school was able to achieve over the past five years were a direct result of your collective efforts and contributions. Thank you so very much for a wonderful five years at Capo.
ALWAYS a Capo Cougar,
Deni Christensen

Principal's Spring Break Message
Dear Parents and Students,
As we begin our annual week-long recess, I would like to wish our students and parents a very happy Spring Break.
As a reminder, Spring Break is from April 2 through April 10, 2011 with school resuming on Monday, April 11, 2011. During this time away, it is my hope that our students and families will enjoy some much needed rest, relaxation, fun, and most of all, quality time spent with loved ones. It's hard to believe, but when we return on April 11th there will be just 10 weeks left in the school year, so of course, I also highly recommend that our students spend some time catching up on any missed work, reviewing, and preparing for the final two grading periods of the semester. In the meantime, on behalf of our entire faculty, staff, and administrative team, I wish you the a safe and enjoyable Spring Break.
Deni Christensen

Desperately Seeking You: Do you want to be in the yearbook this year?
Send me some school related pictures via schoolloop and I will let you know whether or not we use your picture!
Pictures MUST be school appropriate. The pictures can be of anything. Try not to send me pictures of just you. Group pictures would be best. You may send me pictures from when you guys went to a basketball game, went to an event outside of school like beautification day, dances, people at lunch, etc. Send whatever you want. This will be your opportunity to send us a picture you LOVE instead of a picture where we possibly caught you by surprise.
In the email please include: a list of names (in order if possible) of the students that were in the picture.
If you have any other questions just ask me here or email me. My name is Maddie (Madeline) Maula. Make sure you click the right one.

Spanish/Espanol Version IMPORTANTE: New Booster Shot Vaccination Requirements
Estimados Padre de Familia/Tutor:
La tos ferina (pertussis) se ha extendido en California. Muchos estudiantes han tenido que faltar a la escuela por haber estado enfermos.
Con el fin de proteger a nuestros hijos y otros niños de la tos ferina, una nueva ley de California requiere que los estudiantes se vacunen contra la tos ferina.
Para el año escolar 2011-12 solamente, todos los estudiantes que ingresen del 7º al 12º grado necesitarán un comprobante de la vacuna de refuerzo contra la tos ferina para adolescentes (comúnmente llamada la vacuna Tdap) antes de comenzar la escuela.
A partir de entonces, en futuros años escolares, solo los estudiantes que ingresen el 7º grado necesitarán un comprobante de que recibieron la vacuna de refuerzo contra la tos ferina para adolescentes (Tdap) antes de comenzar la escuela.
Por ley, los estudiantes que no tienen un comprobante de que recibieron la vacuna de refuerzo Tdap no podrán empezar la escuela hasta que dicho comprobante se le proporcione a la escuela. (La vacuna de refuerzo tétano-difteria, comúnmente llamada refuerzo de Td, NO cumple con este requisito; la vacuna tiene que ser Tdap).
Usted encontrará más información y requisitos referentes a la vacuna de Tdap en nuestra página de internet de la escuela.
Nosotros queremos asegurarnos que su hijo/a empiece la escuela a tiempo el próximo otoño. Le sugiero que:
- Revise el aviso publicado en nuestra página de internet.
- Vacune a su hijo con la vacuna de refuerzo de Tdap ahora.
Una gran cantidad de estudiantes necesitan la vacuna Tdap entre ahora y el inicio del próximo año escolar. Haga una cita con el doctor de su hijo/a para obtener la vacuna de refuerzo Tdap ahora. Evítese el apuro cuando regrese a clases.
- Guarde su comprobante de vacunación.
Asegúrese de mantener su comprobante de vacunación de la vacuna de refuerzo de Tdap en un lugar seguro. Su hijo/a necesitara el comprobante de vacunación para poder comenzar la escuela.
Vacunándolo/a ahora con la vacuna contra la tos ferina para adolescentes no solo protegerá a su niño/a contra la amenaza constante de tos ferina, sino que también con el nuevo requisito escolar.
Si tiene alguna pregunta, por favor comuníquese a la oficina de enfermería de la escuela.
Atentamente,
Deni Christensen

IMPORTANT: New Booster Shot Vaccination Requirements:
NOTE: English and Spanish versions of this announcement below:
IMPORTANT: New Booster Shot Vaccination Requirements:
Dear Parent/Guardian:
Whooping cough (pertussis) has been widespread in California. Many students have had to miss school because they were sick. To help protect your children and others from whooping cough, a new California law now requires students to be vaccinated against whooping cough.
For the 2011-12 school year, all students entering 7 th through 12 th grades will need proof of an adolescent whooping cough booster shot (commonly called the "Tdap" vaccine) before starting school. Thereafter, in future school years, only students entering 7 th grade will need proof of an adolescent whooping cough booster shot (Tdap) before starting school .
By law, students who do not have proof of receiving a Tdap booster shot will NOT be able to start school until proof is provided to the school. (Please note: The tetanus-diphtheria booster shot, which is commonly called the "Td" booster, will NOT meet the new law's requirement; the vaccination must be the "Tdap.".) Please visit our school website at www.cvhs.com in order to view a flyer with more information about the Tdap vaccine and this immunization requirement.
We want to make sure your child starts school on time next fall. Therefore, I urge you to:
1. Review the flyer and other information posted on our school website.
2. Get your child's Tdap shot now.
A large number of students will need a Tdap shot between now and the start of school next year. Make an appointment with your child's doctor or clinic for your child to get a Tdap booster shot now. Avoid the back-to-school rush.
3. Save your proof of immunization.
Be sure to keep the written proof of your child's Tdap booster shot in a safe place. Remember, your child will need to provide proof of immunization in order to start school next fall. Getting the adolescent whooping cough shot now will not only help protect your child against the ongoing threat of whooping cough but will also meet the new school requirement.
If you have any questions, please contact our school health office.
Please visit our school website homepage at www.cvhs.com in order to read other important information on this topic.

Para el año escolar 2011-12 solamente, todos los estudiantes que ingresen del 7º al 12º grado necesitarán un comprobante de la vacuna de refuerzo contra la tos ferina para adolescentes (comúnmente llamada la vacuna Tdap) antes de comenzar la escuela.
A partir de entonces, en futuros años escolares, solo los estudiantes que ingresen el 7º grado necesitarán un comprobante de que recibieron la vacuna de refuerzo contra la tos ferina para adolescentes (Tdap) antes de comenzar la escuela.
Por ley, los estudiantes que no tienen un comprobante de que recibieron la vacuna de refuerzo Tdap no podrán empezar la escuela hasta que dicho comprobante se le proporcione a la escuela. (La vacuna de refuerzo tétano-difteria, comúnmente llamada refuerzo de Td, NO cumple con este requisito; la vacuna tiene que ser Tdap).
Usted encontrará más información y requisitos referentes a la vacuna de Tdap en nuestra página de internet de la escuela.
Nosotros queremos asegurarnos que su hijo/a empiece la escuela a tiempo el próximo otoño. Le sugiero que:
- Revise el aviso publicado en nuestra página de internet.
- Vacune a su hijo con la vacuna de refuerzo de Tdap ahora.
Una gran cantidad de estudiantes necesitan la vacuna Tdap entre ahora y el inicio del próximo año escolar. Haga una cita con el doctor de su hijo/a para obtener la vacuna de refuerzo Tdap ahora. Evítese el apuro cuando regrese a clases.
- Guarde su comprobante de vacunación.
Asegúrese de mantener su comprobante de vacunación de la vacuna de refuerzo de Tdap en un lugar seguro. Su hijo/a necesitara el comprobante de vacunación para poder comenzar la escuela.
Vacunándolo/a ahora con la vacuna contra la tos ferina para adolescentes no solo protegerá a su niño/a contra la amenaza constante de tos ferina, sino que también con el nuevo requisito escolar.
Si tiene alguna pregunta, por favor comuníquese a la oficina de enfermería de la escuela.

Mid-year reports for Seniors
Some 4 year colleges require mid-year reports (an official transcript that includes the fall grades). If you applied to your school through the Common Application, your advisor will automatically send a mid-year report.
Please check your colleges to verify if they require a mid-year report. UC and CSU do not require them. If they want one, they will ask you to send one - make sure you are checking your email.
Please give your Academic Advisor any forms that are required for your private or out of state colleges.

CAPO's WASC Accreditation Term Announced!!
GREAT NEWS FOR CAPO!
CAPO EARNS "Six-year Term with Midterm Review" WASC ACCREDITATION TERM!!
Dear Parents and Students,
Yesterday, I spoke with WASC personnel by phone, and although our formal letter is still forthcoming, I was told that our WASC accreditation term is now official. It is with great pride that I am able to report to you that we have earned a six-year accreditation term through June of 2017, with only a midterm progress report and one-day visit at the three-year mark in 2014. This is an incredible accomplishment for our school and what we were hoping for!!
I would like to thank our parents and community for their support during this process. I would also like to thank all staff members for their effort and fidelity to the WASC process, and especially our Leadership Team, Focus Group Leaders/Teachers Debbie Cunningham, Beth Gibb, Michael Grabowski, Eric Johnson, Deanna Petrucco, and Ken Sayles, and most especially, our WASC Co-Coordinators/Teachers Tim Garrity and Bill Redding.

June 11 – deadline to sign up is May 6 or May 7-20 (late fee)
Please note that ACT offers both the ACT and the ACT + Writing exam; we recommend that students take the + Writing exam in case the colleges you are interested in require the writing portion. Some schools will also use the writing part of the exam for placement purposes.
For either the SAT or ACT, you will create an account online through the websites above. You will be able to use this account to register for tests, check results, and send scores to colleges.
SAT Subject Tests (register through www.collegeboard.com) ($21.00) : While no longer required by the UC system, it could be beneficial for students to have scores in specific areas. (For example, take the SAT Subject Test in Math Level 2 if interested in Engineering). Certain competitive private schools may require these as well.

Spring Schedules
SECOND SEMESTER SCHEDULES
We wanted to take a moment to inform everyone that second semester schedules will be distributed to students Thursday during 1 st period . As we build the schedule, we are addressing many goals as a staff. It is important to remember that many teacher and student schedules will change at semester to accommodate the goals we have for student learning. Some students will have teacher changes at semester because we are making class sizes smaller, many because we are working with teachers who coach for CVHS sports teams, and others because we are accommodating teacher assignment changes elsewhere in the master schedule. All changes are made with the students in mind and to keep impact at a minimum. Please realize that your student may be one of these students and we appreciate your support and understanding in the matter. The Guidance Office does not honor teacher requests and is only addressing the following challenges with schedules.
***Only the following items will be addressed for changes at this time:
è Double Classes (If a student has two of the same classes on their schedule)
è Missing Classes (If a student's schedule is missing needed classes)
è Repeat Classes (If a student's schedule shows a class the student has already taken and passed)
***The Guidance office Will Not address any of the following at this time:
è Period requests
è Teacher Requests
è Elective Change requests

City of Mission Viejo Seeks Student Artwork and Sports Highlights
Student artwork, photography and sports stats sought for Mission Viejo Life Blog
In an effort to encourage more community participation, the city is seeking local students and groups interested in showcasing their artwork and photography on the city's Mission Viejo Life Blog throughout the year. Sports teams, coaches and parents are also sought to provide sports highlights, news and photos to the blog each month.
Youth of all ages are invited to send their artwork and photos (used for school, club projects) along with a description to blognews@cityofmissionviejo.org for consideration. Players, parents and coaches from schools and local leagues are invited to submit sports highlights and photos each month to the same address. Submitters should include their name and phone number. The city will select pieces to showcase throughout the month and spotlight the artist or photographer on its popular blog. Those who submit sports information will be mentioned and thanked for their contribution.
Adding more information submitted by students, schools and community groups will only complement the city's official blog, which has become the focal point for accurate news and information in Mission Viejo. Visitors to the blog at http://missionviejolife.org will find categories - news, business, entertainment, sports, library and events - featuring the latest headlines and information in an easy-to-read and navigate format. The city's blog, which is often cited in the Orange County Register, features photos and rotating city articles that are updated on a regular basis. The blog also boasts the latest "tweets" by the city and a link to Mission Viejo's YouTube, which features an array of community videos. People can post comments on blog articles and can contribute news and information that may be of interest to blog readers by sending it to blognews@cityofmissionviejo.org .
The city launched its official blog, which is an online informational diary for residents interested in keeping a pulse on community news, in July 2008. The blog is another effective and time-sensitive venue to disseminate information about the city and give the community another place to share opinions.
For more information about submitting artwork, news and information to the blog, e-mail blognews@cityofmissionviejo.org or call Karen Hamman at 949-470-3033.

Principal's Holiday Message:
PRINCIPAL'S HOLIDAY MESSAGE:
Dear Parents and Students,
As we near the winter holiday break, I want to thank each of you for your individual contributions in making Capistrano Valley High School such a special and unique place. I am always so proud of our school and extended community, and I know that together we will "STAND TALL FOR CAPO" as we welcome in a productive new year ahead.
As a reminder, our winter break is from December 20, 2010 through January 2, 2011 with school resuming on Monday, January 3, 2011. During this time away, it is my hope that our students and families will enjoy some much needed rest, relaxation, fun, and most of all, quality time spent with loved ones. It's hard to believe, but when we return on January 3rd, the first semester will be nearly over, so of course, I also highly recommend that our students spend some time catching up on any missed work, reviewing, and preparing for finals -- which will take place at the end of January. In the meantime, on behalf of our entire faculty, staff, and administrative team, I wish you the happiest of holidays and a wonderful 2011 ahead.

I will also work on typing up a newsletter that you can take to your refrigerator telling you upcoming events, net rates, and proposed dates for trips if you haven't already got them. Mrs. Petrucco and I have both decided to charge a club membership fee of $20. This will cover your club shirt (which I should have made shortly), and a bunch of goodies I got over at Ski Dazzle. Thanks and look forward to seeing all of you Friday.

BLACK AND GOLD BRIGADE CLAIMS FOURTH STATE TITLE!
BLACK AND GOLD BRIGADE CLAIMS FOURTH STATE TITLE OF THE DECADE
Capistrano Valley HS Marching Band Repeats as Champions
MISSION VIEJO—The Black and Gold Brigade from Capistrano Valley High School (CVHS) won back-to-back state titles on Saturday at the Southern California Judging Association's (SCJA) California State Band Championships.
The brigade has now won four state championships since 2002, bolstering its claim as one of Southern California's premier high school marching bands. In addition to its first-place award, CVHS also took home four sweepstakes trophies. These included high (best) music, high (best) visual, high (best) percussion and high general (overall) effect. Sweepstakes awards go to the bands judged to be the best among all the other schools competing in the division.
"Back in August, we knew as a staff and design team that this show could be something special," Band Director Andy Waldukat said. "I was very proud that our students got to raise their helmets and finish the season with their best performance of the year at the championships."
CVHS won titles in 2002 and 2006 at the Southern California School Band and Orchestra Association field championships. In 2009, the band won its first SCJA title. This year's theme was "The Gypsy Life," and, in addition to the musicians, included a lively, theatrically choreographed performance by the 17-member color guard dressed as gypsies.
"Winning back-to-back SCJA Championships is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our students, administration, staff and parent volunteers of the Black and Gold Brigade," Waldukat said. "Each group played an important role in the success of the final performance on the field."
In addition to its state win, the CVHS marching band also took first place division trophies at the Marching Band Open Series Competition and the Surf City Open earlier this season.

Here's a way to get in the yearbook!
Hey Cougars, Yearbook is looking for people who have traveled to other countries, states, or even cities for the Capo Abroad page. All you have to do is e-mail me (over school loop) pictures of your trip and a short summary of the trip; where you went, who you went with, what you did there, etc. You MUST have pictures in order to get on the page and the more you send the better (at least 1, at most 10). Space on the page is limited so send in your e-mail as soon as possible!
Just to be specific, for the sake of fitting as many people on the page as possible, we are only going to use one story and one photo from each student, so if you send in multiple stories we are only going to use one, and we will use whichever is the most interesting or different from others we have. Please do not be offended if we do not use all the stories and photos you send in! We are going to try not to put in stories about a trip to the same place twice. This is like a first come, first serve basis, if you send in a story about a place we already have then I'm afraid we will not use your story. Sorry!

You've heard about it, you've seen the posters, or you've at least read the stories Freshman year. Finally, the fall play is here! The Iliad, The Odyssey, and all of Greek Mythology in 99 Minutes or Less!! is playing Thursday Nov. 4th through Saturday Nov. 6th at 7:00pm in the CVHS Mall. $6 w/ASB card, $8 w/o.
The play is a fast paced, improvisation-based, crazy hilarious depiction of the famous Greek stories. The characters are modern day actors (in Converse shoes and making various references to pop culture), who are trying their hardest to impart this information in 99 minutes are less. They are sometimes out of breath, they sometimes miss their cues or break character, and they even come out into the audience to ask for help!
Join us for an evening of fun, and you might even learn something!!

CVHS WASC Accreditation Update
CVHS just completed the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) Accreditation process this week, which each school must complete every six years. The visiting WASC committee presented their findings and recommendations to the Capo staff yesterday at a meeting held after school. Although we will not be notified of our official accreditation term until January, the visit was very positive and productive. As required in the accreditation process, the committee's final report included the following schoolwide strengths and areas for follow-up:
Schoolwide Strengths
The committee commends:
1. The students of CVHS for their respectful attitude towards the staff and learning, and their care for their school.
2. The faculty and administrative staff for their collaborative efforts to develop curriculum maps, pacing guides, and benchmark assessments to ensure a grade level standard curriculum is available to all students.
3. The students, faculty and administrative staff for the consistent improvement of performance in high-stakes test results.
4. The District and the faculty and administrative staff for their continued commitment to: literacy skills, critical thinking skills, moral and civic values, essential District objectives and curriculum standards.
5. The faculty and administrative staff, students, and parents for the many successful efforts to provide a safe learning environment and a clean school.
6. The faculty and administrative staff for the strong intervention strategies for all students. These interventions are accessible to all students.
Schoolwide Areas for Follow-up
The committee recommends:
1. That the faculty, staff, parents and students continue the ongoing implementation of Focus On Learning , to promote continuous improvement that will enhance the achievement of each student in the Expected Schoolwide Learning Results and grade-level academic standards.
2. That CVHS faculty and staff use and continue to expand the use of grade level standard instruction and materials in all classes including Special Education and ELL classes.
3. That CVHS faculty and staff continue to promote full implementation of instructional strategies that have been adopted by the school community and the District such as SDAIE and AVID strategies.
4. That proven research based strategies are used by faculty and administration to assist students in completing A-G requirements and that an effective data collection mechanism for tracking A-G completion for all students and all subgroups be developed and used.
5. That the administration and instructional staff continue to focus the analysis and use of data to include a close examination of CAHSEE, SAT I and II, ELM (CSU entry level math), EPT (CSU English placement test) performance, grades, departmental benchmark assessments and Data Director data analysis, etc. to drive decision-making in the classroom, in the departments and schoolwide, particularly in regards to instruction and support for improved student achievement.
6. That the administration and instructional staff continue to develop professional expertise in the most powerful, best-practices, research-driven instructional strategies to most effectively deliver the content, engaging all students in learning to mastery performance levels.
7. That the administration and faculty develop an effective measurement system to track and report on students' achievement of the ESLRs.
Thank you to all members of our school community who participated in and supported the WASC process.

SPECIAL IMPORTANT NEWS FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK!!
FIRST ANNUAL TASTE OF CAPO A HUGE SUCCESS!!
I would like to thank those of you who were able to attend our First Annual Taste of Capo last night, where over 700 people joined us. It was an incredible evening of fabulous food, music, a silent auction and lots of fun! Hopefully this event will grow each year and become a cornerstone of our school's Foundation's fundraising efforts. A dedicated group of about 10 parent volunteers worked hundreds of hours over the past six months to pull this event together, and I want them to know how much our school community appreciates their efforts. As principal, I was so very proud of our Cougar community last night.
Please patronize the restaurant food vendors listed below, each of whom donated their food, paper goods and employees at NO COST. I want them to know that their generosity was greatly appreciated by the Capo community. And when you visit their establishments (or perhaps consider them for any catering you might need) please make sure you tell them you saw them at Taste of Capo. We hope to have them return next year and to add several more restaurants to the event.
2010 Taste of Capo Restaurant Food Donors:
Berkeley Dog, Booster's Sports Grill, Chick-fil-A - Laguna Niguel, Cosmo's Italian Kitchen, Donna B's, Einstein Bros. Bagels, Hanna's Restaurant • Bar, EJ's House of Chicken and Ribs, It's A Grind, Coffee House, Jersey Mike's, La Rana Authentic Mexican Food, Nirvana Grille, Paradise Bakery and Cafe, Piccolino Ristorante, Southern California Pizza, Ruby's Diner- Laguna Hills, Tortilla Flats, and Yama Sushi & Grill.

School Calendar Clarification
Apparently with the new school calendar that was approved in August, there has been some confusion. To clarify: November 1st will be a regular school day for all secondary students as indicated on our Block Schedule revision of 8/12/10; it is a 'student holiday' for elementary students ONLY due to Parent/Teacher Conferences on that day at the elementary level. Again, school WILL be in session at all secondary schools on November 1st.

Sunday OC Register for 2 cents!!!
The Orange County Register has presented the Instrumental Music Department an INCREDIBLE fundraising opportunity that we would like to share with each of you. From now until October 31, 2010 the register is offering home delivery for the Sunday edition of the paper for merely 2 cents! Imagine drinking your Sunday morning coffee while catching up on the latest events in your area. After one year the subscription will automatically end and you will not be charged for a new one. You can't go wrong!
For each 2 cent subscription sold the Register will donate $10 to the CVHS Instrumental Music program. You are not reading this incorrectly; I said $10 for a 2 cent subscription! WOW!!!! This is an incredible opportunity for you to help the Instrumental Music Department raise funds for instruments, music, and new electronic equipment as we continue to grow and house over 200 students this school year.
Please see the attached form and attach your 2 pennies directly to the order form. Unfortunately, checks or credit cards will not be accepted for this offer.
I hope that you consider subscribing to the register and in turn supporting the CVHS Instrumental Music program in our musical endeavors this school year.

Six Capo Students Names National Merit Semifinalists!
Capistrano Valey High School can boast 6 National Merit Scholarship Program semifinalists this year, making the students eligible for thousands of dollars for college and placing them in the top one percent of seniors who took the 2009 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT).
The list of Capo Valley semifinalists include:
Chen, Rosaline Y.
Hemmel, Mason Z.
Hoang, Alan M.
Park, Erica E.
Tian, Karen J.
Wu, Joseph H.
To reach the finals, students must have an outstanding academic record throughout high school, be endorsed and recommended by their principal, and earn SAT scores that confirm the student's earlier performance on the PSAT/NMSQT. The student and a high school official must submit a detailed scholarship application, which includes an essay and information about the student's participation and leadership in school and community activities.
Approximately 15,000 students will become finalists, who are then eligible to become National Merit Scholarship winners. Merit Scholar designees are selected on the basis of their skills, accomplishments, and potential for success in rigorous college studies, without regard to gender, race, ethnic origin, or religious preference.
Last year, seven CUSD students were named National Merit Scholars district-wide.

Help National Honor Society support "Lee National Denim Day¨.
Hopefully you don't know anyone with breast cancer. But how many women do you know? Total. Add them up..
One in eight will be diagnosed in her lifetime.
Now, ask yourself: Do I know someone that could get diagnosed with breast cancer one day?
Before you get your next paycheck, more than 8,000 people will be diagnosed with breast cancer.
In fact, it is estimated that nearly 200,000 Americans will be diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010.
You can help by taking part in "Lee National Denim Day¨. We hope to help Lee Jeans and Women's Cancer Programs of EIF raise funds for groundbreaking early detection research, as well as local community breast cancer education and service programs.
Capistrano Valley High School's National Honor Society is proud to support this event and the fight against breast cancer.
All you have to do is donate $5 to our team and wear your favorite jeans on October 8th with the rest of the nation.
Please help us to reach (and hopefully exceed) our goal of $500!
How you can help:
-Visit our team page at: http://www.denimday.com/team_page.aspx?tid=236619 < http://www.denimday.com/team_page.aspx?tid=236619 >
-Click "Donate to this Team"
-An online donation takes just a few moments, so please help us to go casual for this great cause!
Thank you!

Capo's 2010 API Announced!
Great news!! The official Academic Performance Index (API) for Capistrano Valley High School, released late yesterday and based upon the Spring 2010 California Standards Tests (CST), increased to 825, which represents a three point gain over the previous year's score of 822 and our fourth year in a row of steady growth. WOW!! To view the complete 2009-10 state Accountability Progress Report for CVHS, please visit the following link: http://api.cde.ca.gov/AcntRpt2010/2010GrowthSch.aspx?allcds=30664643030210
Once again, this gain is a direct reflection of the continued hard work of our great students, dedicated teachers, involved parents, and hardworking staff. While standardized test scores are only one indicator of student success (and we must therefore always guard against focusing too much on any one indicator), we certainly have ample reason to be proud of these scores. Thank you for your support in always ensuring that our students STAND TALL FOR CAPO!!

IMPORTANT NOTES regarding School Calendar, Block Schedule, and Bell Schedule
IMPORTANT NOTES:

The new revised calendar contains several important changes. For an updated copy of the School Calendar, please visit our school website at http://www.cvhs.com/and then click on "School Calendar 2010-11" under the Quick Links menu on the right side of the homepage.

We apologize for any inconvenience.)

CVHS BACK TO SCHOOL NEWS: September 1, 2010
SCHOOL BEGINS WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 2010!!
Welcome to the 2010-11 school year. As I begin my third year as principal of Capistrano Valley High School, I am anxiously looking forward to another great school year and the chance to see our students return to school - hopefully rested and ready for a year of both academic and personal growth. Capo is truly a special place, and I am honored to serve as your principal. Below is some IMPORTANT INFORMATION that I hope you will find helpful with the opening days of school.
ENJOY THE LAST WEEK OF SUMMER; WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU SOON!!
Deni Christensen
Principal
Capistrano Valley High School
Education is a work of heart.
"BE TRUE TO YOUR SCHOOL - STAND TALL FOR CAPO"
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
LATE REGISTRATION:
Those students who missed walk-though registration can complete a modified drop-off registration in the Guidance Office this week, Monday, August 30 through Friday, September 3 between 9:00 – 10:00 a.m. each day. Students will be able to turn in forms, pay for items at the Activities Office, clear debts, and obtain a locker. ID pictures/school pictures will be taken during the first two days of school. Students who missed walk-though registration should make sure they register this week.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION - FIRST DAYS OF SCHOOL: :
TRAFFIC ISSUES – HOW TO SURVIVE THOSE FIRST HECTIC DAYS OF SCHOOL:
Without a doubt, the first days of school always present a frustration and challenge for anxious parents and students trying to get to school on time. In an effort to assist with this issue, please considerand adhere to the following:
What we are doing to help:
- CVHS has developed an efficient traffic flow pattern which maximizes efficiency and safety, given the constraints of our school site, streets, etc. The designated student drop-off zone is in the Upper Student Parking Lot only, and if everyone cooperates with the established traffic flow, it is both quicker and safer for everyone. Please follow the established flow of traffic.
- Campus Supervisors, Administrators, and our School Resource Officer will be actively present during the opening days of school - to assist and help direct the flow of traffic.
- Students may NOT be dropped off in the Staff Parking Lot due to a danger to pedestrians, traffic back-up down Via Escolar, and a traffic hazard and disruption of flow for those cars exiting from the designated student drop-off area in the Upper Student Lot.
What parents and students can do to help:
- Remember, the first ten days of school are typically the most challenging as students and parents learn driving routes, times, etc.
- Please leave early and allow plenty of time to get to school, especially during the first ten days. Those who leave early typically spend much less time in traffic. Also, those who pick up their students 15 minutes after the end of school will find that traffic is greatly reduced by that time.
- Please be patient, follow all traffic flow patterns/rules; when everyone cooperates, things move more swiftly for all drivers.
- Arrange for carpools if possible in order to help reduce overall traffic in/out of school.
- Please be mindful of our adjacent businesses and homeowners and let's all do our best to be good neighbors.
CLASS SCHEDULE DISTRIBUTION:
Class schedules for seniors, juniors, sophomores, and only those freshman who did NOT attend freshman orientation will be distributed in the gym on the first day of schoolstarting at 7:15 am. Students should arrive early – at least one-half hour before their first class. THERE WILL BE NO ZERO PERIOD ON THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL. NOTE: Those freshman who pick up their class schedule at Freshman Orientation on 9/1/10 but then later misplace or forget it should go directly to the Guidance Office to obtain a replacement schedule, as duplicate schedules will NOT be available in the gym. Replacement schedules cost 25 cents.
SCHEDULE CHANGES:
Those students who wish to request a schedule change must do so by submitting a "SCHEDULE CHANGE REQUEST" form (complete with parent signature) to the Guidance Office. Forms are available in the Guidance Office or on-line by visiting the following link: http://www.cvhs.com/cms/page_view?d=x&piid=&vpid=1219689535735 and then clicking on "Schedule Change Request Form." NOTE: Specific teacher requests, or schedule change requests designed to obtain a specific teacher, cannot be accommodated. Due to the number of student requests and the hectic nature of the opening days of school, schedule requests cannot be made via telephone or e-mail; however, "SCHEDULE CHANGE REQUEST" forms received will be processed as soon as possible. NOTE: Students must continue to attend all scheduled classes until their schedule has been officially changed and they have been notified; failure to attend classes until the schedule is changed will result in truancies.
SCHOOL-INITIATED SCHEDULE CHANGES
Due to changing enrollment during the first weeks of school, as well as the need to balance class sizes, some students may receive a schedule change during the opening days of school. Please be assured that changes are only made when absolutely necessary in order to accommodate changing enrollment or the need to balance overall class sizes for the benefit of instruction and learning. Every effort will be made to make the minimum number of necessary changes as quickly as possible in order to finalize students' schedules in a timely manner. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding as we work to ensure a balanced master schedule during the first few hectic days of the school year.

ROP Mock Crime Scenes at Capo on 6/9 and 6/16
Parents and Students,
Each year, the ROP Crime Scene Investigation (CSI) classes conduct mock crime scene investigations as part of end-of-course assessments. Therefore, to prevent misunderstanding or alarm, we want you to be aware that on Wednesday, June 9 and Wednesday, June 16 the ROP CSI classes will be conducting mock crime scene investigations at Capistrano Valley High School outdoors on the grass and walkway areas adjacent to the main building and staff parking lot between approximately 4 and 8 p.m. each day. The mock crime scene will include crime scene tape and students who will be bandaged and playing the part of injured crime victims. As always the activity will not block ingress/egress to the school and will not involve the staff parking lot directly. There will be signs for passersby indicating that the scene is a mock-up exercise as part of an ROP class; however, we wanted to also send this information out in advance to prevent misunderstanding.

REVISED Spring Block Schedule for rest of the school year!
Parents and Students,
The REVISED CVHS Spring Block Schedule dated 5-5-10 has been posted under the "Quick Links" menu at www.cvhs.com . This revised schedule now incorporates the board-approved teacher furlough/student free days, as well as changes to our school's daily block schedules in order to accommodate these days and balance class period meetings:
Important changes to note include:
- Teacher furlough/non-student day on Friday, May 28th (no school).
- Changes to the daily period schedule for the week of May 24 - 28 to accommodate the shortened week; note that Monday, May 24th is now a 1-3-5 block day and NOT a "traditional" period 1-6 day.
- Teacher furlough/non-student day on Tuesday, June 1st (no school).
- Changes to the daily period schedule for the week of May 31 – June 4 to accommodate the shortened week; note there is now a "traditional" period 1-6 schedule for Wednesday, June 2nd instead of a 1-3-5 block schedule.
- Teacher furlough/non-student day on Friday, June 11th (no school).
- Changes to the daily period schedule for the week of June 7 – 11 to accommodate the shortened week; note that Monday, June 7th is now a 1-3-5 block day and NOT a "traditional" period 1-6 day, and that zero period will now meet on Tuesday, June 8th in order to balance zero period meetings.
- The teacher furlough day on Thursday, June 24th does NOT affect students because the last day of school was always (and still remains) Wednesday, June 23rd.
NOTE: There are NO CHANGES to the ending date of school or graduation (both remain Wednesday, June 23rd).

Important Letter from Dr. Bobbi Mahler, Interim Superintendent
April 12, 2010
Dear Parents,
During the last week you may have read one or more e-mails advocating for a "K - 12 Student Walk-out" to take place on April 13 as a symbolic gesture of support for the teachers' union position regarding labor negotiations. It is of significant concern to hear that students would be held out of school on a regularly scheduled and staffed school day in order to address adult issues.
Everyone in CUSD is experiencing and affected by these exceedingly difficult financial and emotional times, and no one is comfortable with nor escapes the anxiety of having to ask valued employees to make personal sacrifices. Clearly, all parties involved are deeply concerned, have strong opinions, and want to be heard. However, it is difficult for me to imagine that the same professional educators who stand before you during Back to School Night and discuss the importance of daily school attendance by asking you to plan your family vacations and celebrations during weekends and holidays, as opposed to school days, would approve of this method of demonstrating support.
Public education is at one and the same time a right and a privilege. We are, as a nation, blessed to have the opportunity to send our children to school to learn.
I have read one of the e-mails giving numerous reasons for this movement, and as I did so it further saddened me to learn there are so many misperceptions and so much misinformation driving a suggestion that completely loses sight of CUSD's most important group...............our children. Due to furlough days, our students will already be losing three days of school this year. I only see an additional loss of privilege and a loss of opportunity to learn with their teachers should they not attend school tomorrow.
Meanwhile, if you did not read my letter of March 29 in which I explained how the Board of Education's decision regarding CUEA negotiations substantially compromised its original pre-impasse proposal with that of the fact finder's recommendation, please do so. I also refer you to our CUSD web site where you might click onto the April 13 Regular Board Meeting Agenda, Item 43 which delineates the results of an intense process to identify almost $6 million in cuts, efficiencies, and the recapture of revenue streams to further draw down our massive deficit of $34 million while still preserving class sizes, student programs, and teaching and support staff personnel. I can also assure you that additional feasibility studies are being conducted to realize additional savings.
District and site level leaders are diligently striving to salvage programs and services which have become core to the high levels of success CUSD students' exhibit. These include Trustee designated values and appear in alphabetical order:
......Academies (high school)
......Advanced Placement programs
......Athletic programs
......Dual Emersion programs
......Co-curricular programs (i.e. academic competitions)
......Elective programs
......International Baccalaureate programs
......Keeping all school sites open
......Music and art programs (including grades 4 and 5)
......Preservation of class size
......Preservation of teaching positions
......Sufficient administrative and support staff services on all sites to ensure the safety and welfare of students
I thank you for taking the time to read this letter. My only purpose in joining CUSD was and remains to serve your children to the best of my ability and to ensure this great school district continues to be viable, solvent, and successful.
Most Sincerely,
Bobbi Mahler, Ed.D
Interim Superintendent

Join the CVHS Times! Here's why:
Newspaper is an unconventional, creative elective that is more of a family than a class. Here is a taste of what you can do as a staff member:
- See your name in a publication that reaches our community. You choose what you want to write. Take a creative stance, investigate campus news, or write controversial opinions.
- Be a leader. There are many editorship opportunities, which looks great on college applications.
- Hone your photography skills. We use advanced cameras to shoot sports, creative photo illustrations, and news as it happens.
- Computer minded? We use InDesign to lay out each page of the Newspaper. Page editors edit the articles, choose the design of their page, and lay out the articles and photos creatively.
- Businessman? We are looking for a business manager, who will keep in contact with our advertisers and control the Newspaper finances.
- Be a part of one of the only student-controlled classes on campus. From story assignments to distribution, the process is organized and carried out by the editors and writers.
- Have fun! (I'm not kidding, we really do.)
Fill out an application and turn it into Miss Sprankle's box in the front office or F-2 by 3 PM on April 30th. Applications are in a folder attached to the door of F-2. If you have any questions, email cvhstimes@gmail.com, or contact Miss Sprankle, Annie Lyon, or Cynthia Ruiz via Loopmail.

Capo Valley Open House Reminder
Dear CVHS Parents, Students and Community Members:
Just a brief reminder about Capo Valley's Annual "Open House":
When: This Thursday, April 1, 2010
Time: 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. (Displays and performances will begin at 6:00; classrooms will open for visitors at 6:30 p.m.)
**This is an opportunity for parents to visit the CVHS campus in order to see student work and displays, enjoy our performing arts groups, and visit classrooms informally. (Unlike Back to School Night, there is no specific schedule or time intervals for classroom visits; parents are free to wander the campus as they wish.)
Although I will not be able to be with you for Open House this year since I will be in New York representing our school at the Samsung Four Seasons of Hope Award Ceremony (where we will hopefully win the Grand Prize!), our administrators and staff are busy getting ready to welcome you. We hope to see you this Thursday, and I will be in touch via Listserve later this week with the results of the Samsung awards!
GO COUGARS!

GREAT NEWS FOR CAPO: Samsung Giveaway Contest!
Dear Staff, Students, Parents, CVHS Feeder Schools, and Community Members:
It is with great pride that I announce incredible news for Capo Valley High School!! Today, I was officially notified that Capistrano Valley High School is now one of the top three winners inthe Samsung Four Seasons of Hope technology giveaway contest! So, what this means is that Capo is now guaranteed to win either one of the First Prizes worth $50,000 or the Grand Prize worth $210,000 (see below for prize descriptions).
The winner will be announced in New York City on March 31st, and Samsung has invited me, the parent who wrote our nominating essay, Wendy Harder, our student body President, David Aguilar, and his parent chaperone to New York City (all expenses paid!) for the announcement of the Grand Prize winner. WOW!!
I want to thank each of you for your support and diligent on-line voting, which helped to make this dream a reality. Without your dedication and support, this incredible opportunity for our school would not have been possible. With a little continued luck, I think we will have good news from New York on March 31st. You can be sure that David, Mrs. Harder and I will all do our very best to be great ambassadors for our school.

Change in Progress Report Intervals - effective Second Semester
Students and Parents,
Beginning with Spring Semester, Capo Valley (as well as several other CUSD high schools) will be moving to a new interval format for student Progress Reports that are mailed home. In the past, teachers have issued a "3-week D/F report" for just those students who were earning a D/F grade in one or more classes at that time. This report will no longer be issued but instead will be replaced by a new 9-week report, which again will be for just those students who are earning a D/F grade in any class at the 9-week mark. (Note: Schools must choose between a 3-week and a 9-week D/F report and cannot issue both. Also, the "normal" 6-week, 12-week and final 18-week grade reports areNOT at all affected by this change.) There are several important reasons for this change: First, school data shows that identifying students who are failing at the 3-week mark is NOT as accurate an indicator of those who will be in danger of actually failing at the end of the semester as the 9-week D/F Progress Report will be. (At three weeks, there has often not been enough work, tests, etc. to be a valid predictor of actual failure.) In addition, we have learned that without this new 9-week D/F Progress Report, parents of students who are seriously in danger of failing at the semester half-way point would not otherwise receive any official Progress Report mailed home between the normal 6-week and 12-week Progress Reports, and yet, this is clearly the crucial time in which parents need to intervene in time to hopefully prevent a student from actually failing at the semester's end. We believe that changing from the 3-week D/F report to the new 9-week D/F interval will hopefully provide a more timely intervention as we work to continually reduce the number of students earning semester D/F grades. Again, please note that this is simply moving the timing of the 3-week D/F report to the 9th week for the reasons noted above, and that the 6-week, 12-week and final 18-week grade reports are NOT at all affected by this change. Spring Semester Progress Report (reports mailed home the week following the dates below): 6-week Progress Report for all students: March 19, 2010 9-week Progress Report only for students earning a D/F grade in one or more classes: April 16, 2010 12-week Progress Report for all students: May 7, 2010 Final Spring Semester Grades: June 23, 2010

NAEP Exam Feb. 9th
What is NAEP? The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is an essential measurement of student achievement in America.

A selection of 12th grade students will take the NAEP exam on Tuesday February 9th during 3rd and 4th period. Students will spend about 90 minutes completing the assessment, including answering questions in one subject area and answering questions about themselves and their educational experience.
If you have any questions, please contact NAEP testing coordinator, Ms. Christy Curtis (cacurtis@capousd.org) or visit http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard for more information.

Important Information for finals Week
Dear Parents,
As we near our semester finals next week (see schedules below), our faculty and I would like to ask for your cooperation and assistance regarding one important area: Each semester, we have a consistent problem with hundreds of students either "texting" or calling their parent(s) as soon as they complete a final exam in order to ask their parent(s) to call school and excuse them early from class, rather than the student having to wait until the end of the final period. (In fact, our Campus Supervisors have found that many students will ask to use the restroom during the final exam in part so that they can contact their parents by cell phone for just this reason.)
While we understand that some students will quite naturally finish their final exams earlier than others, and that they would therefore prefer to be excused as opposed to having to wait until the end of the period, this issue has become an increasing concern. As you can well imagine, with nearly 3,000 students, this practice can cause continuous disruptions to those still testing if other students are constantly being called out and released early during the testing period. Here is what we are asking you to do to assist us with this issue:
1. Please inform your students that they are NOT to call or text you during final exam hours to request that you excuse them early from a final exam period – even if they have completed their exam. Instead, advise your student to remain quietly in the exam room and spend his/her extra time either studying for their next final exam or reading.
2. If you absolutely must have your student released early during an exam period for an already-scheduled appointment, please make sure that he/she goes to the attendance office prior to the start of the final exam period to obtain a release slip before the start of the final. We cannot disrupt final exams by sending call slips or telephoning classrooms during final exam periods. We want each student to be able to give a best effort on final exams, and in this way, there will be much less of a disruption to those in the classroom who are still testing.
Thank you for your help and assistance. Below is a summary of our finals schedules for next week:
Tuesday, February 2:

Please join our school faculty and staff in congratulating Coach Zamora for his outstanding contributions to our school and to the lives of countless young baseball athletes during his thirty-three year stellar coaching career at Capo Valley.Coach Z is just one more shining example of why our school is so very special.

New Cougar Head Football Coach Named!
It is with great pleasure that Capistrano Valley High School announces the selection of Matt Poston as our next Cougar Head Football Coach, replacing Chi Chi Biehn who led the Cougar program for the past seven seasons. Coach Poston comes from Tesoro High School where he has most recently been the Varsity Defensive Coordinator for the Titan program. In addition, he has a very impressive coaching resume in football covering the past ten years. We believe he has the enthusiasm, leadership, and expertise to lead our football program in the coming years ahead.
Coach Poston is also an outstanding math teacher with a Bachelor's Degree in business management from the University of Arizona, and a Master's Degree in coaching and athletic administration from Concordia University. We are currently making plans for him to join us at the start of spring semester where he will teach math, and of course assume leadership of our off-season football class and program.
Coach Poston is married to his wife of eight years, and the couple has two small children. Like many great teachers and coaches, Coach Poston has strong roots at Capo; he began his teaching and coaching career with us back in 2000 before moving to Tesoro when the school opened.
WELCOME BACK TO THE CAPO FAMILY COACH POSTON – it will be
greatto again see you in black and gold!

Application deadline for FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) and Cal Grant
Every year college costs go up and scholarship money is not awarded, low cost government loans are not evaluated, and work study programs are left unfulfilled - all because students (and/or parents) think they won't qualify and therefore do not complete the appropriate financial aid forms. Remember: no application, no money, so why not complete the financial aid process and let the colleges decide if you qualify??
The Capistrano Valley High School Guidance Team would like to encourage every student to complete both the online FAFSA and the Cal Grant GPA verification form (GPA must be 2.0 or greater to apply for a Cal Grant). To be considered for a Cal Grant you must also complete the FAFSA. Private colleges may also require the CSS Profile (deadlines vary by college). Some scholarships and/or colleges may have an earlier FAFSA deadline. Students who will be attending community college, and/or trade/technical schools should also complete financial aid forms. (NOTE: Please see directions and links below for FAFSA, Cal Grant and CSS Profile.)
FAFSA web worksheets can be downloaded at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/before012.htm. Finally, you do not need to pay anyone to fill out the FAFSA or CSS Profile. Please check the FAFSA website for online and phone contacts for FREE help directly from FAFSA. You may also contact the Financial Aid Office of the each colleges to which the student applied for assistance. To file the FAFSA for school year 2010-2011
Step one:
Complete the online application for electronic pin numbers: one for a parent and one for the student
Step Two:
Gather the necessary paperwork for both the parent and the student. Print the paper FAFSA worksheet and fill in the information offline. Once done, you will go online to enter your data. NOTE: Save your information often during the process so you won't lose it if your computer connection is lost.
Step Three:
Be sure you are filing for the 2010-2011 FAFSA. Follow the instructions to complete the FAFSA online at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/ . You can save it as you go along, but be sure to

Happy Holidays!
Dear Parents and Students,
As we begin the winter holiday break, I want to thank each of you for your individual contributions in making Capistrano Valley High School such a special and unique place. Please know that it is my honor to serve as your principal. I am always so proud of our school and extended community, and I know that together we will "STAND TALL FOR CAPO"as we welcome in a productive new year ahead.
As you no doubt know, our winter break is from December 21, 2009 through January 3, 2010 with school resuming on Monday, January 4, 2010. During this time away, it is my hope that our students and families will enjoy some much needed rest, relaxation, fun, and most of all, quality time spent with loved ones. It's hard to believe, but when we return on January 4th, the first semester will be nearly over, so of course, I also highly recommend that our students spend some time catching up on any missed work, reviewing, and preparing for finals -- which will take place at the end of January. In the meantime, on behalf of our entire faculty, staff, and administrative team, I wish you the happiest of holidays and a wonderful 2010 ahead.
Sincerely,
Deni Christensen
Principal
Capistrano Valley High School
Education is a work of heart. ♥

CVHS VOICE MAIL SYSTEM DOWN
The Capistrano Valley High School Voice mail system has been malfunctioning for at least the past three days, and possibly longer. Therefore, if you have left a voice mail message recently and have not received a response, it is very likely because your message was not received. District maintenance personnel are working diligently to resolve the problem, and we hope to have the system operational by the end of today or early tomorrow. In the meantime, the best and quickest way to leave messages for school personnel would be to use School Loop email via the school website at
www.cvhs.com

All Club Secretaries!
This is mainly for all the club secretaries; your club presidents can help you with these. At the meeting with administration and club presidents in November, we talked about how to take minutes (notes during meetings). The attached document is just an example and a guideline with important things to keep track of at meetings.These minutes are VERY important!!!! There are people who come to audit our school and they could ask to see the minutes from various clubs at any time. Try to keep them detailed and at hand.
Take these minutes at executive board meetings when you and your board discuss fundraisers, service projects, future dates/deadlines, and events. Also, be sure to take attendance!

New Rideshare 2 School Program for CVHS students:
Since the start of the school year, we have been assisting parents through listserv carpool posting messages so that they could then set up individual carpools to and from CVHS. For those of you who were able to make transportation connections that are working, please continue those arrangements if you wish. However, for those who would still like to find carpools, we have a new service which will now replace our listserv carpool postings:
In partnership with the "Rideshare 2 School" program, CUSD is introducing an exciting new program where families can join together to carpool, "walk" pool, or "bike" pool to school. Rideshare 2 School offers incentives/gift certificates for participation…check it out! For more information please see the Rideshare 2 School "News Item" on the opening page of our school website at www.cvhs.com where you will find all necessary information and registration forms (in both English and Spanish). All registration forms MUST be returned to the CVHS front office by Friday, December 11th.

Homecoming Dance Reminder
We have some very important information for all students attending the Homecoming dance. The dance will start at 7:30 PM on Saturday October 10th and will end at 11:00PM. It would be greatly appreciated if all students could be picked up no later than 11:15PM. Students will not be admitted if they arrive after 9:00PM and students are not able to leave the dance until 10:00PM without prior arrangement with the Activities Director.
Here are a few things to remember about the dance:
- All students must bring their Student ID card and may not be admitted without it.
- Dress code will be enforced
- Inappropriate dancing/conduct may be grounds for removal from the dance and further disciplinary consequences.
- Remember this is a school function and all school rules apply and violations may make students ineligible to attend future events.

Please avoid local business parking lots for drop-offs and pick-ups
Dear Parents,
Please do not use the parking lots of local businesses in order to drop-off and pick up students. Our school and the Sheriff's Office has had numerous calls recently regarding how this activity severely disrupts their business activities and in a few instances has even resulted in property damage and vandalism by loitering students. We need to do all we can to be good neighbors to our local businesses, many of which support our school financially. Please use the established school drop-off and pick up procedures and traffic flow patterns. In general, traffic moves smoothly when everyone adheres to the traffic plan. Thank you for your consideration and support.

The Musical Outreach Organization's purpose is to bring students from all different musical inclinations together through a common passion for music, and then share that love with the community.
So whether you're a freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior, come to the first general meeting on Tuesday, OCTOBER 6 TH , at lunch in Mr. Waldukat's room (the music room, B2) for more information. We'll be discussing the details of this new club, what it's about, and what's to come throughout the year- like our first fundraiser: a Halloween bonfire!

CVHS Academic Performance Index
Dear Parents and Students,
It is with great pride and extreme pleasure that I am able to report to you that the official Academic Performance Index (API) for Capistrano Valley High School, released yesterday and based upon the Spring 2009 California Standards Tests (CST), increased to 821, which represents a 9 point gain over the previous year's score of 812. WOW!! To view the complete 2008-09 state Accountability Progress Report for CVHS, please visit the following link: http://api.cde.ca.gov/AcntRpt2009/2009GrowthSch.aspx?allcds=30664643030210
Once again, this gain is a direct reflection of the continued hard work of our great students, involved parents, dedicated teachers and hardworking staff. While standardized test scores are only one indicator of student success (and we must therefore always guard against focusing too much on any one indicator), we certainly have ample reason to be proud of these scores, as well as our as our recent significant gains in our CAHSEE pass rate, as reported last week in the OC Register. Thank you for your support in always ensuring that our students STAND TALL FOR CAPO!! (As promised last spring, our "Welcome Back Dance" last Friday was FREE for all students since we knew at that time that our scores had improved, but were just not yet aware of the exact API score.)
GO COUGARS!!

First Week of School
Dear Parents and Students,
The first hectic week of school is officially behind us, and in general, I am happy to report that things went very smoothly. We would like to thank all students and parents for their cooperation in adhering to traffic flow patterns so that traffic could move as swiftly as possible for all. We made every effort to keep traffic moving, and administrators will continue to assist each morning for the next week until everyone is familiar with the traffic flow pattern, at which time our campus supervisors will continue to assist. Capistrano Valley High School is indeed fortunate to have wonderful students, a dedicated staff, and an incredibly supportive parent community. I am confident that we can all look forward to a great school year ahead.

CST/STAR Testing Grade Boost Incentives!
Important Notice: 2009 STAR Testing Extra Credit Incentives: Annual STAR Testing is only one week away! Annual STAR testing will take place for all 9th, 10th, and 11th grade students on May 14th, 15th and 18th. There will be no zero period on these days , and students will be testing with their fourth period teacher all three days. All students should avoid absences during STAR testing if at all possible, and parents are asked to assist by speaking with their students regarding the importance of giving a best effort, and eating properly, and getting enough rest prior to testing. In order to reflect the importance of STAR testing, the core academic departments at Capistrano Valley High School will be offering the following extra credit incentives based upon students' STAR testing results. Please read below carefully and discuss with your student. Any questions should be directed to the student's teachers or the department chair for the subject area.
Capistrano Valley High School California Standards Test (CST) Extra Credit Incentives IMPORTANT: EXTRA CREDIT INCENTIVE PROGRAM BASED ON STAR/CST SCORES: Students and Parents: Once again this year, the CVHS math, English (new this year), science, and social science departments will offer possible extra credit incentives tied to performance on the STAR California Standards Tests (CST), which are given to all 9th, 10th and 11th grade students each May. Test results are then mailed home to each student in August. At that time, if you believe that your student's CST test scores qualifies him/her for a possible incentive based upon the criteria listed below for each core subject area, he/she MUST see his/her teacher in the fall by the published deadline, which will be announced at the start of the school year. (If the teacher is no longer at CVHS, students should see the department chair.) Remember, it is the student's responsibility to see the teacher in order to receive any possible extra credit incentive increase, and no late requests will be honored. The specific criteria for each department are listed below, and all questions must be referred directly to the teacher.
MATH DEPARTMENT: Level I Math Incentives: (The following incentives will apply to all math students, EXCEPT those students enrolled in Honors Precalculus, or any Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) math class. The incentives for these students are listed separately below in the section entitled "Level II Math Incentives.") Students who score at a "proficient" or "advanced" level or have an increase of at least one CST testing level over the previous year's CST scores may qualify for one of the following incentives. Specifically, students scoring "advanced" may earn a 10% increase in their final percentage for the semester of their choice. Example: A student who had an 82% will earn an increase of 8.2% (10% of 82) for a new percentage of 90.2%. Students scoring at the "proficient" level will earn a 5% increase in their final percentage for the semester of their choice. Example: A student who had an 82% will earn an increase of 4.1% (5% of 82) for a new percentage of 86.1%. Students who achieve a one-level increase, such as from "below basic" to "basic," will earn a 5% increase in their final percentage for the semester of their choice (as above). Students who achieve a two-level increase, such as from "far below basic" to "basic," will earn a 7% increase in their final percentage for the semester of their choice. Students MAY use this incentive to raise a FAILING grade if they earn "proficient" or "advanced" level in the subject in which they were enrolled (i.e. Algebra, Geometry, Algebra II). Students who earned "proficient" or "advanced" on a corresponding CST exam will earn a minimum passing grade of D- for the semester of their choice, regardless of the percentage of points earned for that semester; however, this particular incentive stipulation does NOT apply to Precalculus or Introductory Statistics since there is no CST exams for these courses.
Level II Math Incentives: (The following incentives will apply to those math students enrolled in Honors Precalculus, or any Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) math class.) Since the grades for these math classes are already weighted on a 5-point scale, and since the content of these courses is not tested on California CST exams, the CST incentive for these course grades will be limited to a maximum of 5% of the grade for a score of "advanced," and 2.5% for a score of "proficient." For both Level I and Level II Math incentives, students may receive only one STAR/CST incentive bonus in math per school year, and all possible grade incentives must be initiated by the student contacting the teacher by the established deadline.
ENGLISH DEPARTMENT: The English Department has adopted the "10, 5, 5" point increase incentive plan. Students can receive no more than one of the following incentives: 10% added to their final second semester grade for moving up two levels from the previous year's CST performance, or 5% added to their final second semester grade for moving up one level from the previous year's CST performance. Students who maintain either a "proficient" or "advanced" status will receive a 5% point bonus on their second semester final assessment/test.NOTE: It is the student's responsibility to contact the teacher by the established deadline in order to initiate any possible grade change. CST grade boost incentives will NOT apply to AP or IB courses.
SCIENCE DEPARTMENT: Up to 10% grade boost on final exam for the course corresponding to a CST score of "advanced." Example: A student who earned an "advanced" score on the biology CST may petition the biology teacher to add points to the final exam and then re-calculate the overall semester grade for the course. The student must contact the teacher by the established deadline in order to request any grade incentive recalculation
SOCIAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT: The social science department has adopted the "10, 10, 5, 5" incentive plan. Students can receive no more than one of the following incentives: 10% added to their final semester grade for a CST score of "advanced," or 10% for jumping two levels from the previous year's CST performance, or 5% for a score of "proficient," or 5% for jumping one level from the previous year's CST performance. It is the student's responsibility to contact the teacher by the established deadline in order to initiate any possible grade change.

Day of Silence This Friday!
Hello everyone! Day of Silence will take place this Friday, April 17th.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with it, the event is a demonstration against the bullying and harassment of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender students. Fortunately this isn't a huge problem at Capo (thanks you everyone!) but LGBT-related harassment is a nation-wide issue. On April 6th of this year, a student from Illinois named Carl Joseph Walker-Hoover hung himself as a result of anti-gay bullying. He was only eleven years old.
Too many students like Carl have been silenced. Day of Silence honors those too afraid to speak for themselves. You can participate by remaining silent for the school day. It is important to inform your teachers of your intent to participate well ahead of time, so speak to your zero, first, third and fifth period teachers in advance.
Remember to wear red and meet on the mall stage during lunch. Last year we had nearly sixty students participate and we hope to set a new record. This is a demonstration that takes place on middle school, high school and college campuses across the country, so get involved!
Thank you everyone, have a great day!

Dream Dress Drive
Capo is holding a dress drive during the month of March. We are collecting old winter formal/prom dresses to donate to a charity called Yesenia's Dream Dress Drive (www.dreamdressdrive.com). It is a great organization that distributes slightly used dresses to underprivileged girls around Orange County who can't afford to buy their own dresses. The organization also distributes makeup and hair products, shoes, and accessories to the young women. Without this organization, many of these girls would not be able to attend their proms, something many high school students look forward to all year.
All you need to do is bring in your slightly used dress, DRY CLEANED, to Mrs. Sayles room, K5, during the school day. The distribution date is March 21st, so we are very pressed for time! Please bring them as soon as you can! (Although we will continue to accept donations past that date!) We also accept formal shoes in good condition, purses, and accessories.
We will take your name down when you bring your dress in. I am working to get a fabulous prize package to the winner of a raffle; tickets will be given out once I have the whole program put together. I apologize for not having in it place already, but this was all very last minute. But if I am lucky enough to get all the donations together (the economy is against me), I will make sure every donor gets a raffle ticket and has a chance at the prize.
So please help us, bring your dress in! Also, tell all your friends, and boys, maybe you have younger or older sisters who have extra dresses hanging around? We will accept mother's dresses too, and donate the more matronly styles to the Wise Place or Women Helping Women.
The story behind Yesenia's Dream Dress Drive is a beautiful one, so please go to the website dreamdressdrive.com for more information, or message me back for more information.
If you would like to help out, also message me back for my phone number and we can work something else.
More information will be out soon!
Please help, it is a rewarding thought knowing you sent a girl to her prom!
Thank you so much!

Governor's Fitness Challenge
We would like to invite you to participate in this year's Governor's Challenge competition- a contest among K-12 schools that challenges California students, parents and teachers to get more active, healthy and fit.
Governor Schwarzenegger has challenged Californians to be active 30-60 minutes a day at least three days a week for a month. Research shows that regular physical activity during adolescence helps build healthier bones and muscles, and reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes and obesity. In addition, physical activity and fitness have been shown to be highly correlated with academic success.
Students that sign up to participate in the challenge will be able to download a free one day pass to Mammoth Mountain and a 30 day pass for a 24 hour fitness center near their home. Parents and teachers may also download a free 30 day pass to a nearby 24 fitness center. The schools with the most participants are eligible for prizes including a $100,000 fitness center.
Students can sign up for the Governor's Challenge directly, track their own active days and qualify for additional rewards at www.calgovcouncil.org/students
Parents Teachers can sign up for the Governor's challenge themselves and be active on behalf of Capo Valley HS at www.calgovcouncil.org/parentteacherandothers
Any questions? Email Mrs. Cunningham at ddcunningham@capousd.org or see the Governor's Challenge page in the Athletics section of this website.

Hey CSF members,
Turn in your $35 dues for the Entertainment books ASAP! The last day to turn them in is December 1st, or the Monday back from break.
But if you're anything like me, you'll forget to do that over the break, so do it NOW!
If you want to pay with cash, turn in the money to Activities, but if you have a check you can give it directly to Dr. Kucera.
Also, if you wish to RETURN your book, turn it back in to Dr. Kucera's room E2 by THIS FRIDAY, November 21! Otherwise you will be suspended.*
Your loving secretary,
Celine
*Not true. But still, turn it in or pay your dues.
P.S. There are still tons of people who haven't even picked up their books yet. That's pages and pages just sitting around in E2. You are failing our planet and destroying our trees. That is all.

Seniors - Apply early to Cal State!
California State University officials are urging prospective fall of 2009 freshmen students to apply early because the state's budget shortfall will limit enrollment. The application period opened last week. University officials are encouraging students to apply by Nov. 30, instead of the March 1 deadline, for a better chance of acceptance at their preferred campus. At least six of the system's 23 campuses -- Cal State Fullerton, Cal State Long Beach, Cal Poly Pomona, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, San Diego State and Sonoma State -- will cut off freshman admissions Nov. 30, spokeswoman Clara Potes-Fellow said.
Other campuses may close admissions for certain programs or majors on Nov. 30, Potes-Fellow said. Students can visit www.csumentor.edu/filing_status to monitor those programs and majors.

Guidelines for Middle School Student Attendance at CVHS Events
Dear Parents,
For the past three home football games, we have been experiencing increasing problems associated with young middle school students attending the games/events unsupervised. This has led to a myriad of serious safety/behavior issues, which we must address in order to ensure the safety of all students. While most parents do an excellent job in supervising their young students at CVHS events, the following guidelines are being sent via listserve to feeder middle school parents in order to clarify this issue, and I am sending these guidelines to you as well to ask for your continued cooperation if you have middle school students:
WHAT WE ARE REQUESTING:
The following guidelines are established for middle school student attendance at all CVHS events in order to ensure student safety:
1. ALL middle school students MUST be accompanied by a parent or guardian in order to purchase a ticket to a football game or any other CVHS event. Middle school students need parent supervision at high school events in order to ensure their safety and proper behavior. Middle school students should sit with or near their parents during the event.
2. Parents/guardians must remain throughout the game/event to supervise their middle school students and may not simply âdrop offâ students for pick-up later; no exceptions.
3. Parents or other adults may not purchase multiple tickets for other students who were not properly accompanied to the event by their own parent/guardian.
4. Middle school students must have (and present upon request) a valid school ID at all times while attending a CVHS event.
5. Parents/guardians of unsupervised students will be contacted to return to CVHS immediately to pick up their unsupervised students and will be asked to meet with an administrator and/or the School Resource Officer.
6. Unattended middle school students who are left waiting without adult supervision for rides after the game/event will be referred to the School Resource Officer and curfew citations may be issued.
7. All student behavior issues and/or guideline violations will be referred to the studentâs middle school for appropriate school disciplinary action and/or to the School Resource Officer for legal violations.

IMPORTANT: Student Attendance Procedures! Avoid truancies!
Students and Parents - Attendance Clearing Procedures:
To date, over 200 CVHS students have uncleared and unverified absences for the period of September 22nd through the 26th. Many of these uncleared absences are the result of parents or guardians forgetting to properly notify the Attendance Office (949-365-0973) to report the reason for the absence. Per California Ed. Code, parents/guardians have 72 hours in which to verify a studentâs absence. Please recognize that CVHS has over 2800 students and that our Attendance Clerks have a huge job in handling daily attendance issues. Correcting attendance after 72 hours hinders their daily duties and is outside of the established education code guidelines. Therefore, please call the Attendance Office within the 72 hour window in order to verify a student absence. Failure to verify absences within 72 hours will result in the absence becoming a truancy, and student disciplinary consequences will be assigned. While we certainly do not want students to experience disciplinary consequences for legitimate absences, we must enforce the 72 hour window in order to maintain efficient attendance procedures for our 2800 students. If you have any questions, please contact your studentâs Assistant Principal or the Attendance Office. Thank you for your cooperation.

Failure to Serve Disciplinary Consequences - Loss of Privileges
Students Must Serve Disciplinary Consequences or Risk Losing Privileges (i.e. parking, dances, etc.):
Students and Parents: Students who receive notification that they need to serve a disciplinary consequence (i.e. Saturday School) for truancy or any other disciplinary reason, but who fail to serve their consequence as assigned will NOT be allowed to attend the Homecoming Dance on October 18th, and may also risk loosing parking and other privileges. Therefore, if your student has been issued a Saturday School, please ensure that he/she serves it as assigned. If there is an error, or if you have questions, please contact your studentâs Assistant Principal immediately. It is certainly NOT our desire to revoke student privileges, but rather to ensure that all students take responsibility for serving consequences as assigned for attendance or rules violations. Thank you for your cooperation.

Reduced Student Parking in Upper Lot on 9/19/08:
In an effort to further improve student safety and traffic flow in the student drop-off/pick-up area in the upper student parking lot, maintenance will be repainting and restriping this area on Friday, September 19, 2008 beginning after morning drop-offs. Therefore, although student drop-offs will occur as normal, the one line of parking immediately adjacent to the drop-off area will not be available for student parking on Friday, and students will need to park in other spots or in the lower lot for this one day. We apologize for any inconvenience, but we must complete the repainting as soon as possible to help resolve some issues with traffic flow and student safety. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Capo's API Announced!!
It is with great pride and extreme pleasure that I am able to report to you that the official Academic Performance Index (API) for Capistrano Valley High School, released late last week and based upon the Spring 2008 California Standards Tests (CST), increased to 812, which represents a 17 point gain over the previous yearâs score of 795; further, we met growth targets in all areas. WOW!! To view the complete 2007-08 state Accountability Progress Report for CVHS, please visit the following link: http://api.cde.ca.gov/AcntRpt2008/2008GrowthSch.aspx?allcds=30664643030210
This gain is truly remarkable and a direct reflection of the hard work of our great students, involved parents, dedicated teachers and hardworking staff - and of course to former CVHS Principal Tom Ressler for his outstanding leadership over the past five years. While standardized test scores are only one indicator of student success, and we must therefore always guard against focusing too much on any one indicator, we certainly have ample reason to be proud as an academic community. Thank you for your support in always ensuring that our students STAND TALL FOR CAPO!!

âBE TRUE TO YOUR SCHOOL - STAND TALL FOR CAPOâ
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Student Parking:
Students parking in the upper student parking lot MUST have and display a parking permit beginning with the very FIRST DAY of school or risk being ticketed and towed. Parking passes were sold to seniors during registration, and therefore, they are required in the upper lot as of the first day of school. Seniors who do not yet have a parking permit must park in the lower lot and then purchase a parking permit right away. The lottery for juniors for remaining available spaces will be conducted during the second week of school, and after the lottery, those students who park without a permit in either lot will be ticketed and or towed. Please follow these parking rules to avoid inconvenience and expense.
TRAFFIC ISSUES â" HOW TO SURVIVE THOSE FIRST HECTIC DAYS OF SCHOOL:
Without a doubt, the first days of school always present a frustration and challenge for anxious parents and students trying to get to school on time. In an effort to assist with this issue, please consider the following:
What we are doing to help:
CVHS has developed a very efficient traffic flow pattern which maximizes efficiency, given the constraints of our school site, streets, etc.
Campus Supervisors, Administrators, and our School Resource Officer will be actively present - especially during the opening days of school - to assist and help direct the flow of traffic.
We have met with the large local businesses in our area to suggest flex scheduling hours for their employees so that their traffic will not coincide with the start/end times for school.
Due to serious safety concerns, and to provide for the quickest and most efficient flow of traffic for all motorists, the Staff Parking lot may NOT be used for student drop-offs or pick ups (see explanation below under pick-ups and drop-offs).
What parents and students can do to help:
Remember, the first ten days of school are typically the most challenging as students and parents learn driving routes, times, etc.
Please leave early and allow plenty of time to get to school, especially during the first ten days. Those who leave early typically spend much less time in traffic. Campus Food Services offers healthy breakfast items, so come early to avoid the traffic and enjoy breakfast!!
Please be patient, follow all traffic flow patterns/rules; when everyone cooperates, things move more swiftly for all drivers. Arrange for carpools if possible in order to help reduce overall traffic in/out of school. CARPOOL INFORMATION: Unfortunately our school or the PTSA may not coordinate carpools. However, there is a website that may be of use to help you: http://www.dividetheride.com/
Please be mindful of our adjacent businesses and homeowners and letâs all do our best to be good neighbors.
PICK UP and DROP OFFS:
Due to serious safety concerns and to provide for the quickest and most efficient flow of traffic for all motorists, the Staff Parking Lot may NOT be used for student drop-offs or pick ups. Reasons: Allowing cars to turn left into the Staff Parking lot greatly delays the flow of traffic up Via Escolar, and when these cars later exit the Staff Lot, it further delays the flow of traffic down Via Escolar. Most importantly, it is unsafe for student pedestrians. Please follow the flow of traffic into the upper student lot, and traffic will flow smoothly for all. Thank you for your cooperation.
CLASS SCHEDULE DISTRIBUTION:
Class schedules for seniors, juniors, sophomores, and only those freshman who did NOT attend freshman orientation will be distributed in the gym on the first day of school. Students should arrive early â" at least one-half hour before their first class. NOTE: Those freshman who pick up their class schedule at Freshman Orientation on 8/27/08 but then later misplace or forget it should go directly to the Guidance Office to obtain a replacement schedule as duplicate schedules will NOT be available in the gym. Replacement schedules cost 25 cents.
SCHEDULE CHANGES:
Those students who wish to request a schedule change must do so by submitting a âSCHEDULE CHANGE REQUESTâ form (complete with parent signature) to the Guidance Office. Forms are available in the Guidance Office or on-line by visiting www.cvhs.com/guidance.htm and then clicking on âSchedule Change,â or by visiting the following link directly: http://www.cvhs.com/guidancedocs/Blue%20Schedule%20Change07_08.pdf Specific teacher requests, or schedule change requests designed to obtain a specific teacher, cannot be accommodated. Due to the number of student requests and the hectic nature of the opening days of school, schedule requests cannot be made via telephone or e-mail at this time; however, âSCHEDULE CHANGE REQUESTâ forms received will be processed as soon as possible. Students must continue to attend all scheduled classes until their schedule has been officially changed and they have been notified.
SCHOOL-INITIATED SCHEDULE CHANGES
Due to changing enrollment during the first weeks of school, as well as the need to balance class sizes, some students may receive a schedule change during the opening days of school. Please be assured that changes are only made when absolutely necessary in order to accommodate changing enrollment or the need to balance overall class sizes for the benefit of instruction and learning. Every effort will be made to make the minimum number of necessary changes as quickly as possible in order to finalize studentsâ schedules in a timely manner. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding as we work to ensure a balanced master schedule during the first few hectic days of the school year.
