SENIORS DAVID QUINTEROS AND MARICELLA JACINTO CHECKING IN WITH MR. JONES FOR AP EXAMS
MARIA TUKEVA’S (MT) MESSAGE:
IN MEMORY OF KASSIUS-KOHN GLAY
Today as a school, we mourn the loss of Kassius-Kohn Glay. Kassius was an 11th grader, a vibrant and dynamic presence in class and in the school, a scholar, athlete, and beloved and caring classmate. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends, and we as his school family, are grieving as well. We will have resources available for students and faculty, and we are all encouraged to utilize these resources. In order to support our students, we need to take the time and space to grieve as well. Please review the correspondence sent by the PGT, for details of how we would like to process this loss as a community.
The loss of one so young is always unfathomable, yet we must seek to cherish his memory, and keep it alive through our feelings and thoughts. Below is an excerpt from a Memorial fundraising site, and a link to the Gofund me to support his family.
Kassius-Kohn Glay was a son, brother, friend, student, and young king who brought joy and light to all whose presence he graced.
A natural-born leader, Kassius' energy was magnetic. He had dreams and ambition to graduate from high school, attend college, and make his mother, father, and siblings proud.
On Friday, May 28th, 2021, heaven gained another angel due to the senseless gun violence here in DC stealing the promise of our future. The purpose of these funds is to help offset the cost of the funeral for his family. All sized donations are welcomed.
JUNE IS LGBTQ+ PRIDE MONTH
During June we celebrate LGBTQ+ history as well as explore current social justice issues within our curriculum. As a school committed to anti-racism and equity, we celebrate the richness of our community holds in gender identity, race, culture, faiths, language and national origin. Ms. Ermis has sent communication and resources that all of us should use. Please reach out to with ideas for whole school activities during this month.
REENROLLMENT TIME
Please help us reach our enrollment target of 1,500 students for SY 21-22. To date, we have enrolled 880 students, or 58% of our goal. Please make re-enrollment announcements part of your daily announcements or updates. We are offering incentives to the teachers, counselors and support staff who help us enroll or re-enroll the most students, as well as administrative premium for reaching out outside of normal school hours.
COURAGEOUS CONVERSATIONS CONTINUE IN JUNE FACULTY MEETING
We will continue our Courageous Conversations about Race in this week’s Faculty Meeting. Following the feedback received from our May 19th Courageous Conversation, we have seen a groundswell of support and interest in continuing these important conversations. In this week’s Conversation, we will focus on reflecting on our curriculum, and how it reflects and responds to our students cultural identities. Curriculum is everything we say, do, read, write and think about while we are in school. In order to design a curriculum that is anti-racist and built on equity, we need to have constant reflection and refinement through Courageous Conversations about Race and Curriculum.
RECOVERY/ACCELERATION PLAN APPROVED
We have now submitted our budget spending plan for Summer Acceleration, and are extremely excited about what we will be able to offer this summer! We have already started recruiting staff and students. If you are interested in working in our creative and innovative Summer Acceleration plan, please reach out and apply. Within the next two weeks, we will begin to work on the spending plan for the Acceleration and Recovery Activities to be held in during the school year. The outline of our goals and programming can be seen by clicking here.

UPCOMING EVENTS
INSTRUCTION:
RESTORATIVE JUSTICE MR. DUVALL WITH 9TH GRADE STUDENT ANA MENDOZA
WEEK 6 OF ADVISORY 4
By this week, all students should be starting their second GRASPS, or completing their first. Portfolio Presentations are in three weeks, and we have allotted a whole week (June 14-18) for presentations, in order to improve the quality and time for reflection.
In order to make sure all students complete their GRASPS, work should be completed incrementally each day on different standards aligned parts of the GRASPS. Our goal over the past advisory has been to improve the portfolio process by making sure students know how to organize their work in an e-portfolio format, either on CANVAS, or in Summit. That process begins with the first project of the advisory.
AP Testing continues this week. Please see the instructional calendar for all of the dates of the different exams. Please encourage all of your students who take AP, to do their best, and let them know how proud you are of them!
INSTRUCTIONAL CALENDAR

CHEC TEAM SHINES - LETTER FROM FRANCIS ON THE HILL
Over the past several months, the CHEC Team, Mr. Rayamahji, Ms. Carino, Mr. Molina, Mr. Best, Ms. Lemus, Mr. Tobias, and several others have been working with local CBO and partner Francis on the Hill for food and diaper distribution for the families in out community. Most recently, Francis on the Hill’s diaper distribution at CHEC on Friday, May 21st ran efficiently and smoothly - distributing an amazing 10,075 diapers in just one hour. Since January 2021 the Francis on the Hill Emergency Diaper Hub and the dedicated at CHEC have distributed nearly 228,500 diapers valued at $66,205!
In contrast to the first community distribution in April, where in a very slow start only two to three people arrived within the first 20 minutes, las week there were close to 20-25 people in line. It was pretty much a non-stop hour-long distribution.
A sincere thank you to the boots on the ground team for always showing up with smiles and contribution of time:
Judy Oversby connected us with Roz Overstreet Gonzalez who provided translation for the event—there really are not words for how grateful we are to have had her join us! It was my first time meeting Roz and she truly is a force of nature with a kind and generous demeanor. We look forward to having her join us for future distributions.
Trulie and Alex Coonrod sorted, fulfilled and, handed out the diaper requests to the community keeping the line moving and safely distanced. Marion Lobred distributed punch-cards to new recipients and assisted with the data collection to track new vs. returning recipients. And Victor Molina! Wow! The entire CHEC team’s dedication to the success of this program is amazing and so very appreciated.
And thank you to our transportation, delivery and data keeping team members; Jack and Hilly, Bryan Marks, Court Funk, Tim Letzkus and Owen Cooper!
It is a joy to work with you all at CHEC to be able to provide as an Emergency Hub for the Greater DC Diaper Bank to ease some of an incredibly large need in for the families in our communities.
With gratitude,
Susan Mathews

Since the 1990s, an instrumental part of decreasing teen pregnancies in Washington, D.C. has been the New Heights program. However, in recent years, the program has faced uncertainty due to proposed budget cuts and reorganization. Its remaining staff have shown resilience, increasing the number of schools and members each person supports.

DONORS CHOOSE - MS. ERICKSON HAS A PROJECT FUNDED
Ms. Erickson’s classroom project "Equipment for D.C. Public Schools Middle School Golf Program" was recently funded by Donors Choose.
MY STUDENTS
My ninety 8th-grade students are intellectually-curious, creative, and resilient scholars who work hard each day in class to fulfill our school's mission "to succeed in college and civic life as leaders in the quest for social justice." These students are mostly Latino and African American. Many are immigrants or the children of immigrants. Many are learning English. Despite the obstacles that face our students, they are incredibly hardworking and diligent, focused on their studies and achieving their goals.
Our current golf team is made up of 10 students, only one of whom has ever played golf before. We practice for two hours twice a week at East Potomac Golf course and learn the fundamentals of golf. Golf clubs are provided by the program, enabling all students to play.
Our students look forward to each day on the course. On the golf team, students have enjoyed making new friends, being outdoors and active, gaining new sources of motivation for academic and other goals, and growing a love of the game.
MY PROJECT
Golf is an incredible opportunity for young people to get outside, be active, and enjoy a unique and life-changing sport--now more than ever during these difficult times when students are spending much of their time indoors in virtual classes. Additionally, golf opens many opportunities for young people for careers and even scholarships--many of which go unused every year. Golf is an international sport and a lifelong sport that brings many benefits to individuals and helps students to cultivate life skills, including patience, persistence, and sportsmanship.
They are diligent and strong students, taking feedback seriously, and their skills have already grown a lot in a short period of time. It is the highlight of my week to see their joy and enthusiasm at the course. They are enjoying playing golf so much, and as their coach, I want to do everything I can to help them have the best possible experience, playing golf for the first time, to grow their love of the game and all of its benefits for years to come.
Many young people face barriers to access opportunities to play golf due to the cost of equipment. I am requesting funding for equipment to enhance their current experience in our spring golf program by giving them what they need to make the most of the program and also prepare them with the resources they need to play in the future. Our students will be so grateful to have access to the equipment they need to continue to grow their love of the game.
The resources for this project include:
- Strike Golf Five-Pack (5pk) All-Leather White Soft Cabretta Leather Men's Golf Gloves Medium (Left Glove for Right-Handed Golfer) x 1
- Five-Pack (5pk) White Leather Golf Gloves Made with Soft Cabretta Leather Small (Left Glove for Right-Handed Golfer) x 1
- Srixon Z-Star 2017 Golf Balls, White (One Dozen) x 3
- Callaway 4-in-1 Golf Divot Repair Tool x 10
- GoSports 3.25" XL Premium Wooden Golf Tees - 200 XL Tee Player's Pack Driver and Iron/Hybrid Tees, Choose Your Tee Color x 2
