It is a great day to be a Raider! What a great school year we are about to wrap up. We have sent the senior class off to their next chapter of life, we have taken all of the TCAP’s, EOC’s, ACT’s, SAT”s, Standford’s and every other type of test we could’ve given a child this year, and we have assigned and graded thousands of homework assignments, quizzes, and tests. We have watched plays, musical performances, athletic events, dances, proms, and field days. We have smiled, laughed, cried, hugged, and loved with our students. This, in my opinion, has been a very successful year. Read More

“Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You’re off to Great Places!
You’re off and away!”
Dr. Seuss began one of his most famous stories “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!” with this captivating stanza. As we send off the Class of 2012 this coming Saturday, we take a minute to think back to the days of our own graduation days. The family coming in, the graduation cookouts and parties, the friends we have spent the past thirteen years together, and many we may never see again. Read More

Director’s Moment
May 7-11 2012, is proclaimed National Teacher Appreciation Week. Teachers make public schools great by opening students’ minds to ideas, knowledge and dreams. They help lay the foundation for good citizenship and serve as listeners, explorers, role models, motivators and mentors. Indeed, teachers continue their influence long after the school days have ended. We honor those hard working, patient and understanding people who are entrusted with the responsibility to provide our students with the tools they need to be successful in an ever-shrinking, highly competitive world. We are blessed to have our teachers in Cleveland City Schools who put students first in every way. We spend a lot of time discussing teacher evaluations and other interesting topics, but the variable that we all share is the student. Our teachers bring their “A” game every day and it is appreciated! Read More
