We are so excited to get started on our new semester. Welcome to our new families! Just as a reminder, this weekly message comes every Sunday. If you miss it, you can find the weekly update on our Alternative High School website. You can also find our calendar and information about School Council, Parent Society and Graduation.
This is our first full week of learning in Semester 2!
Semester 1 Report Cards Visible in PowerSchool
Report Cards are now visible in PowerSchool.
Parents and Guardians can sign in to MyCBE to view student information, including report cards, comments from your child’s teacher, assignments and grades, and attendance information. For best access to information, log in to the MyCBE portal instead of using the PowerSchool App.
Need Help? Check out these videos for more information on how to log in and navigate the portal when you have more than one child attending CBE schools.

remind | Lunch and Snacks
Pack a healthy lunch and snacks. Although we have in the past been able to offer food for breakfast and snacks, as well as sandwiches for lunch for those who need them, this year our budget will be limited. Brown bagging for kids provides sandwiches in limited quantities. Please reach out to your child's mentor if your child would benefit from this service. There will be light breakfast items available prior to 8:55am for those student who might need them. Tracey's room will be open during morning break and at lunch and she will have snacks available for students who may have forgotten to bring food from home.
Please also send a reusable beverage cup good for both hot and cold. We are no longer providing cups to students on a regular basis as they often leave them in lockers or around the school. We do not have a way to mass clean re-usable cups at school. Encourage your child to wash out their cup each night at home. If you have extra re-usable cups and would be willing to donate them for student use, please drop them off or send them with your child.
Meet the Teacher and Parent Meeting Tuesday, Feb. 10 starting @ 6:00pm
We invite you to Alternative High School for an opportunity to meet your child's teachers. We will start in a circle in the gym, then do a short timetable rotation so you can meet each teacher in your child's day and learn more about what they are learning, how to communicate and conditions for success.
Meet the Teacher is NOT Parent Teacher Student conferences. There will not be opportunity for individual conversations about students. PTS conferences are March 20.
School Council/Parent Association Meeting Tuesday, Feb. 10 @ 7:00pm (right after Meet the Teacher)
We have our first parent meeting of 2026 on Tuesday, February 10 following Meet the Teacher. We hope you can join us in person at the school or online in Microsoft Teams .
