Letter from Principal Dean         

Dear Parent / Guardian,

I want to thank you for the support you have given your students, we have had a great start of the school year!  We have been focused on our main initiative of the year the "Failure is Not An Option" program.    Please read our articles throughout the year that will focus on this concept so that All of our students are successful.    To ensure the safety of our students we ask that you sign in at the principal's office when you visit the high school.  No one should be on campus without a visitor or substitute tag.  We have also brought back student Id's this is just another way we keep our students safe.  We are a closed campus and student Id's helps us know at a glance if a child is a Chapel Hill High School student.

Data shows that students do better academically if they feel a sense of connection to school and feel cared about by adults and peers in their school.  I would like to invite you to "Coffee with the Principal" on Tuesday, October 21 @ 7:30 a.m. in the high school library. We will be discussing the formation of a parent action team for the high school.

The second six weeks of the school year is proving to be busier than ever, so be sure to mark your calendar for our coming events.  We, look forward to seeing you and thank you for permitting us to work with such an incredible group of young people.

Yours In Education,

    "FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION"
    Focusing on the 6 principles of sustaining learning communities

    Common Mission-It is the mission of Chapel Hill High School to empower and challenge students to reach their full potential, so that they may compete successfully in a changing world. Through observation and collaboration with students, family, staff and community, all students will graduate according to their individual graduation plan. To ensure success, Chapel Hill High School will provide a consistent, positive learning environment that values human diversity and nurtures each talent.
    Ensuring achievement for ALL students -Started the Grand Central Station Program (GCS). GCS is a fully operational learning center designed to support the education of all students and provide support and resources to teachers to assist the students in achieving their maximum potential.
    Collaborative teaming focused on learning- Every teacher is involved in a Professional Learning Community where the focus is to not simply ensure that students are being taught but that they learn.
    Using data to guide decisions-Our enrollment for the 1st six weeks is 859 students, 24.5 African American, 28.2 Hispanic, and 46.1 White. The attendance rate was 96.90% and the overall passing rate was
    Family and community support-Bulldog Bash was a great start, now be sure and plan to attend "Coffee with the Principal" on Tuesday, October 21 @ 7:30 a.m. in the high school library.
    Building sustainable leadership capacity- Our Student Senate has taken the lead by organizing a Leadership committee to meet with school administration the first Wednesday of every month. We also thank the parents who have volunteered to help on campus, we appreciate your leadership and commitment.
