Our volunteer reporting year officially ends June 30. June board and committee meetings count towards this year's hours - check the Master Calendar for dates and times.

A Message from Cherry Creek School District (CCSD)

Dear CCSD Families,


On May 29, you will be able to view your child’s Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) state test results using the Colorado Department of Education’s new Family Portal. This secure website will allow you to easily see how your child performed on the state tests given each spring to students in grades 3–8.



Information and instructions to log in to the CDE Family Portal can be found HERE.



If you have any questions, feel free to email the CCSD’s Office of Assessment and Performance Analytics with the subject line “CDE Family Portal”



Have a great summer!

CCSD Office of Assessment and Performance Analytics

To access your student's results, you will need their State Student ID. You can find this by going to my.cherrycreekschools.org and clicking on the PowerSchool/Parent Forms tile.

Summer Reading and Readiness Packets Summer Reading and Readiness Packets

📚 Dive Into Summer Learning!

As we head into a well-deserved summer break, we want to ensure our students keep their momentum going! Our dedicated teachers have spent time carefully compiling Summer Reading and Readiness Packets for all returning students.


These aren't just "busy work"—they are purposefully designed to bridge the gap between grades, ensuring every student returns in August feeling confident, prepared, and ready to thrive from day one.


🍕 Elementary Pizza Party!

Students who turn in their readiness packet completed during the first week of school will join their homeroom teacher for a pizza party on Friday, August 14th.


Please be sure to review Middle School Packets for individual grade level expectations regarding completion of summer reading.
