The Cleveland Spring Blood Drive is fast approaching! We will be hosting a blood drive next Wednesday, April 22nd from 8AM-2PM. The drive will be located in the New Gym. Donors will receive a $15 online gift card for their donation. Donations are open for anyone in the community.
Our goal for the year is to collect over 100 pints of blood in order to earn a $1500 scholarship through the American Red Cross. Last year we fell a bit short with only 87 pints collected. We have some work to do this spring. We would love your help to reach our goal.
You can sign up at American Red Cross, click the link below, or reach out to Mr. Roberts at roberts.david@isd391.org and he can get you scheduled.

As we approach MCA testing this week, we want to help all students feel confident, prepared, and ready to do their best.
You can support your child during this time by:
Keeping schedules as consistent and low-stress as possible
Making sure they get a good night’s sleep each evening
Providing a healthy breakfast each morning
Ensuring they arrive at school on time
These small steps make a big difference in helping students feel focused and ready for testing.
We also want to encourage both you and your child - MCA tests are just one way for students to show what they know.
We are proud of their hard work throughout the year and truly believe in their abilities! With your support and their effort, they are well prepared to succeed!
Thank you for partnering with us to support your child.

BTW (Behind-the-Wheel) Spring/Summer Info and Sign-Up
The sun is out and the snow is gone, we hope! Time to start thinking about getting your BTW hours in. BTW sessions will start on April 20th. Sessions run from 3:30-5:30pm, Monday-Thursday, until June 2nd. Starting June 2nd, I will schedule 3 two-hour sessions per day: 7:30-9:30am, 10:00am-12:00pm, and 12:30-2:30pm. I try to run back-to-back sessions as I do not live in Cleveland. I will not schedule a 7:30am with a 12:30pm unless I can fill in with a 10am. Your flexibility is appreciated! No BTW sessions will be available June 15th-June 19th, and all sessions must be completed by August 7th.
Important information regarding BTW;
*I will make an earlier birthday a priority over later birthdays
*All sessions are 2 hours
*Students need three sessions (6 hours total)
*I expect all students to have 20+ hours of practice driving previous to BTW sessions
*Students must have their physical permit card or we cannot drive
*Cellphones will be put in the glovebox for all sessions
*The cost is $375, payable to Cleveland Public Schools
*Students will not get their white e-card entered into the state system until their fee is paid in full
*If you paid a non-refundable $125 down payment and received a blue e-card, your final total is $250
If you have any other questions, please email me. Sometimes all this info can be clear as mud! Email me to start setting up times and getting dates on the calendar. Looking forward to a successful BTW season!!
