Here is what we have done so far with all your donations:
Purchased classroom supplies and equipment
Funded staff and teacher development
Funded tutoring during support, after school, and Saturdays
Sponsored Peer Support, Student Clubs and Scholarships
Library acquisitions and support, including funding extended library hours
Fully funded the College and Career Center, Naviance assistance, and College Information

FAFSA and CAL GRANT: The FAFSA form (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is up and live on FAFSA.gov. DO NOT GO TO FAFSA.com or FAFSA.org! This document can be submitted for FREE -- if you go to a website that is charging you to submit the FAFSA you are on the wrong website! The Cal Grant GPA Verification Form is available in the College and Career Center. The Cal Grant form is an application for money for any higher education in the State of California for a California resident. This includes private and public 4-year colleges, all community colleges and vocational school. The FAFSA must be submitted before the Cal Grant. Students may bring the Cal Grant form to Mrs. Lutsky in the College and Career Center for GPA Verification. The form is then returned to the student. IT IS THE STUDENT'S RESPONSIBILITY TO MAIL THEIR OWN CAL GRANT FORM TO THE CALIFORNIA STUDENT AID COMMISSION! It is wise to check the FAFSA and Cal Grant deadlines that each college has set. Any questions, please contact Robin Lutsky at rlutsky@lvusd.org.
Essay Contest Open to All Students: The Valley/Ventura/Santa Barbara Cancer Support Community is holding an essay contest for students whose lives have been affected by cancer in any way. Deadline for submission is February 9th, 2015 midnight to dearcanceritsme@gmail.com. For more information, rules and prizes go to: www.cancersupportvvsb.org.

Attention Seniors!
Please come to the counseling office to order your mid-year transcripts. All Common Application colleges will require you to send your mid-year grades. Please remember the UCs/Cal States and Non-Common Application colleges only need a transcript if they specifically request it. The yellow form will be available in the front of the counseling office. See your counselor with any questions.

Mayor Shapiro would like to extend an invitation to all Calabasas residents to the "State of the City" event at the CHS PAEC on February 4th at 7pm.

Dear Calabasas High School students and parents,
CHS Peer Support would like to thank Therapy Dogs International and Paws 4 Healing for letting students play with their dogs on Tuesday at lunch to relax before finals. The 5 therapy dogs were a HUGE success and Peer Support received overwhelmingly positive responses from students. The dogs definitely brought a positive energy to the campus before finals began.
As a reminder, students can always find Peer Support Counselors at FRIENDS in room H117, which is open every day at lunch. FRIENDS is a place, where students can relax, hang out with other students, meet new friends, and ask any questions students may have, so feel free to stop by.
Thank you!
Sincerely,
The Calabasas High School Peer Support Team

The Soccer program at Calabasas High School is going strong under coach Leon Abravanel and his "pack" of coaching staff. Coach Leon believes in giving back to the community and has the team volunteering at two community events already this year. His motto is "one team, one family" and is building the strongest soccer program CHS has had in years, one player at a time. His strong approach to training and commitment to the
team is sure to pay off this season and in the years to come. Calabasas High School has become the elite environment for high level players to develop, reach their full potential and compete for championships. www.calabasassoccer.com

"CERT" TRAINING
FEMA: FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY
Preparedness Myths Debunked
Disasters can happen at any time and with little to no warning; that's why being prepared is so important! Some people may rely on old preparedness myths in response to certain disasters, which can prove dangerous. When it comes to disaster preparedness, can you separate fact from fiction?
- Standing inside a doorway is the best way to stay safe during an earthquake? WRONG! According to FEMA, the current protective action to take during an earthquake is to drop, cover, and hold on. Download the America's PrepareAthon! How to Prepare for an Earthquake Guide to learn earthquake basics and how to protect yourself during tremors. You can also check out the animated video, When The Earth Shakes, to see how to stay safe.
- First responders will be able to help everyone during disasters. WRONG! Emergency responders do a great job keeping people safe, but they can't do it alone. It may also be several days before they can reach your area.
- Remember, being prepared for disasters is a shared responsibility. It takes the whole community working together to effectively prepare for, respond to, and recover from disasters and other emergencies.
The County of Los Angeles Fire Department Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training was developed through FEMA to provide basic fire safety and life saving skills. Please join us in Agoura Hills, March 3rd, click here for flyer, or in Calabasas, March 19th, click here for flyer.
