This year, all students will be entering forecasting data on line.

CREDIT RECOVERY OPPORTUNITIES

We have limited space available in our on-campus credit recovery classes to juniors and seniors who failed core classes first semester. Students who need to recover credit for graduation need to see their counselors. Clackamas Community College and Mt. Hood Community College offer credit recovery opportunities as well. Students planning to attend 4 year colleges or who are wanting to meet NCAA standards are advised that credit recovery opportunities are not acceptable for those purposes.

Clackamas High President’s Day Youth Hitting Clinics

MONDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 2017

GRADES 1st-8th

Grades 1-3 = 9:30am – 11:00amGrades 4-6 = 11:15am – 12:45pmGrades 7-8 = 1:00pm – 2:30pm

Each clinic will be limited to 20 players! The first 20 registrations received for each grade level will be enrolled in each clinic, so sign up quickly!Cost = $35.00

All clinics will be in the Clackamas Baseball Indoor Hitting Facility (The Big House)

The Clackamas High President’s Day Youth Hitting Clinics are designed to teach younger players the basic skills and philosophies of hitting. We will focus on developing sound hitting techniques and using the proper drills. We also will stress the appropriate mental approach to hitting. Our goal is to give each athlete a better understanding and knowledge of what it takes to be a successful hitter.

Due to space and safety concerns, each clinic is limited to 20 players. This will also insure a 1-4 player to coach ratio. This will allow each player to get a lot of individualized instruction from members of our high school staff. The clinics are run solely by the high school coaching staff.

Each clinic is an hour and a half long and broken up by grades. This will allow us to make sure our instruction is very age and skill specific. The clinics will be held entirely in the Clackamas Baseball indoor hitting facility (The Big House).

INSURANCE WAIVER

I understand that the Clackamas Baseball staff will use their judgment in determining emergency care and procedures. I also understand that the North Clackamas School District, the Clackamas Baseball program, or Clackamas Baseball Coaching staff, assume no financial obligation for expenses incurred in carrying out emergency procedures and/or emergency transportation.

A Piece of My HeartThis is a powerful, true drama of six young women who went to Vietnam: five nurses and a country western singer booked by an unscrupulous agent to entertain the troops. The play portrays each young woman before, during and after her tour in the war-torn jungle and ends as each leaves a personal token at The Wall in Washington.

A Piece of My Heart has recently been named the “The most enduring play on Vietnam in the nation,” by The Vietnam Vets Association. The New York Times commented, “There have been a number of plays deal-ing with Vietnam, but none with the direct, emotional impact of Ms. Lauro’s work.

Parental AdvisoryA Piece of My Heart is a true story depicting the tragedy of war. This play includes adult content, language, and descriptions of violence.

Announcement of 2017-18 National High School Policy Debate Topic

Clackamas High School’s English and Speech teacher, Jennifer Lesieur has the honor of having her topic, Ed-ucation Reform, chosen as the 2017-18 National High School Policy Debate Topic. According to Mr. Streeter, former speech coach at CHS, “For those of you that are unfamiliar with the process of selecting the National Policy Debate Topic, it is quite arduous and a tremendous honor. This brings much prestige to CHS and the District. There is only one topic selected each year nationally. All high school policy debaters across the country will debate this topic throughout next year culminating in each state championship and the Nation-al Championship. Fewer than 100 people hold this honor since the National Forensic League was founded in 1925.” Congratulations Ms. Lesieur!

SPED Teacher Awarded Grant MoneyBefore coming to CHS to teach in the SPED Dept, Janet Tansy taught art for many years. When she heard about the NCEF teacher grants she applied with the goal of bringing art into her classes. She wrote out her proposal, and is so grateful to have been awarded the money to purchase art supplies for her students.

Ms. Tansy says, “Sometimes the best way forward is to step outside of left brain operations and try some-thing different, to explore unfamiliar aspects of yourself. It is often a positive, rewarding experience.

Many of our students do not get the chance to simply explore their creative sides as they are so focused throughout elementary and middle grades on grade-level goals and benchmarks. I hope to provide my stu-dents with opportunities to experience another aspect of learning.” Congratulations Ms. Tansy!

Childrens Book ProjectA diverse and creative group of students at Clackamas High School are writing and illus-trating original picture books, based on their own experiences, to help elementary school kids deal with difficult issues such as divorce, race, body image, bullying, conflicting reli-gious beliefs, gender identity and others. They also attended a lesson from Happy Valley librarian Anna Bruce about bibliotherapy and the power children’s books can have on children. With a generous grant from the North Clackamas Education Foundation, the students will eventually print and read their picture books in actual elementary school classrooms across the district.

Group advisors: Clackamas teachers and staff Kellette Elliott, John Stewart, Laurie Thurston, and Shalaia Walters

Student Travel to Costa Rica in JuneCHS students are invited to travel this June to Costa Rica with Ms. Leger from the World Language Depart-ment! With well-protected national reserves and an unparalleled diversity of wildlife, Costa Rica is the jewel of Central America. We will travel to multiple regions. The Arenal region showcases an active volcano, hot springs, and a broad range of flora and fauna. In Monteverde, tour the greenery of the Santa Elena Cloud Forest, then in Manuel Antonio National Park, keep your eyes open for sloth, toucans, and howler monkeys.

February is National Children’s Dental Health Month!Did you know that the drinking water in Clackamas County is not fluoridated? Because of this, students who live in Clackamas County are at greater risk for tooth decay (cavities). North Clackamas School District provides a number of opportunities to help students prevent tooth decay and maintain good oral health.

Our district’s oral health program has received a multi-year Oregon Community Foundation Children’s Dental Health Initia-tive grant to develop a district-wide school-based dental program that will eventually provide dental services for students from Kindergarten through Grade 12. Our district is partnering with Neighborhood Health Center (NHC) to develop this oral health program.

Our dental wellness coordinator and NHC’s Community Dental Program staff help families access dental care for their children. Having these services at our schools means students spend less time out of class and parents miss less work. Several opportuni-ties for students are shown below.

Dental insurance navigation and application assistance is available.

Mobile van visits may be scheduled to provide services for students who do not have dental insurance or access to dental care.

MODA’s The Children’s Program can provide up to $600 of free dental services for children from ages 5 to 18 who are not covered under any dental plan.

Please contact the NCSD Oral Health Program at 503-353-6096 for information about these and other services. You can also view their website. From the North Clackamas School District homepage (www.nclack.k12.or.us) under Departments, choose Family Support Center, and select Dental Health Solutions.

Dear Parents and Guardians

In order to comply with state law (SB 637) North Clackamas School District is required to send an annual notification to inform you about the school district’s Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program. The dis-trict’s operations department will need to facilitate the treatment of pests and weeds at some point during the school year with low impact applications.

When pest (ants, wasps, mice, hazardous weeds, etc.) thresholds exceed the established limits and non chemical pest control measures are deemed unsuccessful, low impact pesticide applications will be con-sidered and or applied as a last measure. Under SB-637; only license pesticide/herbicide applicators are permitted to perform this work in and around schools. The routine use of pesticides to remedy pests is not allowed. Prior to treatment, we are required to post notice of planned treatments 24 hours in advance, and to leave the notice up until 48 hours after a pesticide is applied on site. If pest conditions dictate immediate atten-tion the 24 hour notification will be waived and the posting will take place at the time of application. Pes-ticide notifications will be posted at the schools’ main entrance or office doors and also at the area being treated inside the school or school grounds.

Please direct all questions and inquiries regarding IPM to Melinda Shumaker, Facility Operations Director, at (503) 353-6061.

Bajo la SB-637; sólo aplicadores pesticidas/herbi-cidas aprobados se les permite desarrollar este trabajo en y alrededor de las escuelas. El uso rutinario de pesticidas para remediar plagas no es permitido. Antes del tratamiento, tenemos la obligación de publicar la notificación del plan del tratamiento con 24 horas de anticipación, y poner la noticia 48 horas después que un pesticida ha sido aplicado en el plantel. Si las condiciones de la plaga indica atención inmediata a la notificación de 24 horas y la notificación será ig-norada y tendrá lugar en el momento de la aplicación. Notificaciones de plaguicidas serán publicados en las puertas principales o en la oficina de las escuelas y también en el área que es tratada dentro de los terrenos de la escuela o de la escuela tratada.

Уважаемые родители и опекуны

Этим ежегодным письмом, мы хотим сообщить Вам о выполнении школьным округом новых требований закона штата (SB 637) по комплексной борьбе с вредителями (Integrated Pest Man-agement) в этом учебном году. В течение учебного года Отделу эксплуатации округа необходимо будет провести обработку паразитов и сорняков препаратами с минимальным воздействием на окружающую среду.

Когда уровень вредных насекомых (муравьи, осы, мыши, опасные сорняки и т.д.) превышает установленные лимиты и нехимическая обработка вредителей признана неэффективной, пестициды минимального воздействия на окружающую среду будут применяться в качестве крайней меры. По закону SB-637, только лицензированные работники могут проводить обработку пестицидами/гербицидами внутри и вокруг школы. Регулярное использование пестицидов для устранения вредителей не допускается. Мы обязаны разместить объявление о запланированной обработке за 24 часа до ее начала и оставить объявление на 48 часов после применения пестицидов. Если обстоятельства с вредителями требуют принятия безотлагательных мер, 24-х часовое извещение не потребуется, и уведомление о процедурах будет вывешено во время проведения обработки. Уведомление об обработке пестицидами будет размещено у главного входа в школу или на дверях школьного офиса, а также в местах обработки внутри школы или на окружающей ее территории.

Пожалуйста, обращайтесь со всеми вопросами и просьбами по поводу IPM к Мелинде Шумакер (Me-linda Shumaker), директору Отдела эксплуатации школьных объектов (Facility Operations Director): (503) 353-6061.

Kính thưa Phụ Huynh và Người Giám Hộ,

Tuân theo luật tiểu bang (SB 637) Khu Học Chánh North Clackamas bắt buộc phải gởi thư thông báo với quý vị về chương trình Phối Hợp Quản Trị Côn Trùng (IPM). Phòng hoạt động của khu học chánh sẽ điều hợp việc trị liệu côn trùng và cỏ dại ở một thời điểm trong niên khoá với loại thuốc có ảnh hưởng thật thấp.

Khi côn trùng (kiến, ong, chuột, các loại cỏ dại có hại, v.v…) vượt qua ngưỡng cửa giới hạn đã định sẵn và các phương pháp kiểm soát côn trùng không cần chất hoá học không còn hiệu nghiệm, chất liệu thuốc trị có ảnh hưởng thấp được xét tới và xử dụng như là một biện pháp sau cùng. Theo luật SB-637, chỉ có những người có môn bài xử dụng thuốc diệt cỏ và côn trùng mới được phép làm việc trong trường và xung quanh. Chánh phủ không cho phép xử dụng thường xuyên các loại thuốc trừ sâu. Trước khi trị liệu, chúng tôi bắt buộc phải niêm yết thông báo kế hoạch 24 giờ trước đó và lưu lại tờ niêm yết thêm 48 giờ sau khi thuốc trừ sâu đã được áp dụng. Nếu việc trị côn trùng đòi hỏi tức thời, điều kiện thông báo 24 giờ trước có thể được miễn và việc niêm yết xảy ra cùng lúc với việc dùng thuốc. Thông báo về thuốc trừ sâu sẽ được niêm yết tại cổng chính của nhà trường hay cửa văn phòng và tại những khu vực được trị liệu trong trường hay sân trường.

Xin gởi tất cả những câu hỏi và thắc mắc liên quan tới IPM về Melinda Shumaker, Giám Đốc Vận Hành Cơ Sở tại số (503) 353-6061.
