Student Testing and Calendar Change – April 18
This month, ninth and tenth grade students at CVCA will take Ohio’s required graduation tests. In order to protect class time for our teachers, we have made an adjustment to our originally planned testing schedule for April 17 and 18. (The school calendar originally listed testing for April 17 and 18.) Monday, April 17 will be a regular school day (starting at 7:50 a.m. for all students). Tuesday, April 18 will still be a late start day (8:55 a.m. start for grades 6-8 and 11-12). All ninth and tenth graders will report to school by 7:50 a.m. for graduation testing on that Tuesday.
Career Window – April 4
On Tuesday, April 4, Zac Kohl, founder of The Well CDC, will talk about how he decided to repurpose a one-hundred-year-old church building as part of his approach to improve the quality of life within Akron’s Middlebury neighborhood. The Well fosters choice in housing, job creation, and community pride. Students are invited to come hear his story!
