Please have conversations with your students to make good choices, follow school rules and be a positive example to others at school and in our community. Students have the privilege to attend off campus locations in our community and its important that our students model good behavior, treat others with respect and follow school rules and directives by staff. This applies at school as well, but needs reinforced when leaving school property.

Please be sure your child dresses appropriately for their events this week, inside and out. Students are to bring water bottles for field day and outings with their classmates as well.

We look forward to having a nice week with everyone, finalizing our classwork, celebrating academic success and a great school year.

Thank you for reviewing this with your student(s). Have a wonderful week.

Students Will Be Keeping Their District Chromebook This Summer

Students in grades 3-12 will be keeping their Chromebooks over the summer break. Students will be responsible for keeping the Chromebooks and their cases in working order for use next year. If your student does experience any issues with their Chromebook over the summer, please click HERE or visit bit.ly/scssummertechticket to submit a Tech Ticket. A Tech Department member will contact you within two business days to assist. If your student is leaving the district over the summer, they will need to turn in their Chromebook on the last day of school. Please click HERE or visit bit.ly/scscbl to submit your student’s name to inform our department to collect the Chromebook. If you have any questions, please contact Dave Binkley at dbinkley@scsmustangs.org.

Dear Parent/Guardian

Summer is fast approaching! As a reminder, please pick up your student’s medication at the school clinic on or before the last day of school.

Medication that is not picked up by May 26, 2023 will be discarded. Please go to Strongsville City Schools website Student Services - Strongsville City Schools to download medication administration forms and action plans for next school year.

Have a safe and healthy summer.
