CHS PFC eNewsletter

 

 

April 24, 2015

Dear Friends of the PFC:

 

Saturday night at 8:00pm is the anticipated premiere of Jason Alexander's performance of "Other People's Stories" in the Calabasas High School Performing Arts and Entertainment Center.  There will be some amazing surprises so if you haven't purchased your tickets, visit www.thePAECs.org. Parking passes are also available for purchase (as of this writing there are only a few seats left). We hope you can join us!

 

This was an exceptionally busy week at CHS. Testing and late start times for some and for Seniors, a special trip to the Tennis and Swim Center on Thursday.  Next week support resumes on Wednesday and Thursday. 

 

Thank you to Joey Levin, our CHS Health Clerk, for arranging guest speaker Doug Rosen "The Teen Whisperer" to share his stories at her final R.A.P. session of the school year.  Those that attended were moved by his journey and honesty. We hope that he will be able to join us again next year.

 

Many Thanks,

Laura Ainsworth

Lisa Wayne

Co-Presidents



Only a few seats left!

ANNOUNCEMENTS

 


 





 


Dear Calabasas High School Students and Parents, 

Peer Support at Calabasas High School is truly one of our most treasured resources. Our Peer Support group values respect among students, creates an anti-bullying culture, provides fun activities for students and a place where students can always find a friend to sit with at lunch.  Peer Support has brought in service dogs to pet and relieve stress during finals week, provided stress management tools, brought an important anti-bully film to all students, parents and faculty and offered one-on-one friendship during Every 15 Minutes.  With this school year ending and a new one starting before we know it, Peer Support is looking for new students to join this group and be part of this very valuable organization on the CHS campus.

 

If you would like to join the Peer Support team next school year, click here for an application. All applications are due May 1st in room H106 by 12:00 PM. 

           

Also, CHS Peer Support, CHS Stand for the Silent Club, and Former Calabasas Mayor and current City Council Member David J Shapiro, are hosting a screening of the movie "Bully" in the CHS PAEC on May 6th, at 6:30 pm for ALL LVUSD Middle Schools. Immediately following the screening there will be a panel discussion moderated by LVUSD Superintendent Dr. Dan Stepenosky. The screening is geared toward middle school age students and parents, but is also open to the community. This movie is intended for grades 6 and above (rated PG-13). Admission is FREE! 

 

The film BULLY follows five stories of children and families who are deeply affected by bullying within the course of a school year. With intimate glimpses into homes, classrooms, cafeterias, and principals' offices, the film offers insight into the lives of bullied, ridiculed children.


 


CHS Peer Support aims to help create a bully-free environment both at CHS and all LVUSD middle schools. Making our community aware of the negative effects of bullying is the first step. Please contact calabasashighps@gmail.com or mrsharris416@gmail.com with any questions.

     
Please make sure to visit our website at www.chspeersupport.com and like us on Facebook at  https://www.facebook.com/peersupportchs 

Thank you!
Sincerely,
The Calabasas High School Peer Support Team
