Parent - Week of 4/7

Week of April 7

Spring break is here, and when we return, we’ll be in the home stretch of the school year! The next two months are packed with exciting events, celebrations, and opportunities for our students to shine. Ohio State Testing kicks off on April 15th, so please help set your student up for success by making sure they get plenty of rest, eat a good breakfast, and bring their Chromebook fully charged. Enjoy the break—we can’t wait to finish the year strong together!

In partnership,

Families, we need your help!

ELECTRIFY YOUR SYMPHONY - SATURDAY, APRIL 12

The Strongsville City Schools Orchestra Directors are excited to announce another amazing performance experience for our string orchestra program on Saturday, April 12. Electrify Your Symphony (EYS) is a music education phenomenon that FIRES UP students, teachers, and local communities by injecting a high voltage dose of energy and much-needed funding into a school’s music education program. This intensive experience boosts student self-esteem and motivation, increases school-wide, family and community engagement, and helps raise money for participating schools. Created by international recording artist, electric violinist, and music education advocate Mark Wood, EYS accomplishes this by having a team of teaching artists work with music students to put on real life, real world rock concert, with ticket sales directly benefiting the participating music departments. Tell your neighbors, family and friends about this awesome event being held in our Strongsville High School Auditorium on Saturday, April 12, with performances at 3:00pm & 7:00pm!
