Parents/Guardians:

Families will receive a notice from AACPS requesting that you go online to your PowerSchool Parent Portal account and verify your child's course requests for next year.

CSP schedules for the 2024-2025 school year will not be completed by the traditional AACPS timeframe. CSP scheduling takes place throughout the spring and summer. Traditionally, student schedules are distributed on the first day of school and high school students are given the opportunity to request elective changes throughout the first weeks of school.

Senior families meet with their counselor over the summer to discuss senior schedules and review the college application process. Stay tuned for more information from your child's counselor with specific dates and details.

Due to these processes, CSP families are not requested to verify schedules at this time.

CSP would like to thank Dr. McCrary for the wonderful he did the past three years as the High School Math Team Coach.

We are now looking for a replacement. If you are interested in being the 2024-2025 Math Coach, please reach out to Mr. Jefferson at djefferson@mycsp.org. It is an hourly paid position.

Thank you for volunteering for CSP career day. On May 3rd, from 8:30-11:37, students will have the chance to hear from you!!

In order to be considered to volunteer or chaperone, you must first fill out a response to our CSP Volunteer Interest Form. This is the same form that was sent out multiple times at the beginning of the school year and has been included in the parent newsletters.

If you submitted a response, you do not need to do anything further. Once you submit a response, Ms. O'Brien will follow up with an email letting you know next steps. You will not need to submit a new response each year. Ms. O'Brien will reach out to you to let you know if your commercial background is expiring.

CSP Middle/High School's After School Academic Support Program, starting the week of President's Day, is meant to provide further academic support to students who have a demonstrated need to improve their scores on MCAP and MISA tests. In the past, with this program, the school usually provided snacks for the students; however, this year, there's no more additional funding to do this hence why PTSO is reaching out.

Please find below a link to a SignUp Genius to donate snacks and drinks for this program.

Chesapeake Science Point and Anne Arundel Community College (AACC) have a partnership for the Early College Access Program (ECAP), allowing students to take college courses while in high school. CSP also has a unique partnership where selected students work toward a college Associate Degree throughout high school, earning 60 college credits through AACC classes and AP credits. Candidates for this very selective program are considered during the spring of students’ eighth grade year at CSP. Administrators, counselors, and teachers review student data and discuss individual student ability to complete college level and AP courses. AACC requires a strict limit of 22 students for this program, making it extremely selective. The selection procedures will begin in February and parent contact will take place once the review process is completed. Students and families do not need to request consideration for this program, all eighth-grade students will be reviewed and considered for the Associate Degree program. Students who are not chosen for the selective Associate Degree program are still eligible to take individual AACC courses through the ECAP program. These opportunities are usually possible in students’ junior and senior years.
