Breakfast and lunch will be served in Grand Canyon through the reminder of the school year. Students will be allowed to eat in Grand Canyon, on the outside tables, the terraces on the football field, or on tables in the New Gym. We appreciate your patience and understanding through all of the changes.

Good evening CHS parents and students. It is the first of May which means this school year is coming to an end. It is crazy to imagine everything we have accomplished this year, despite all the chaos and COVID going on around us. Despite all we have done, we are not finished. yet. These next 4 weeks will be very busy for everyone at Carbon High. Over the next 2 weeks all 9th and 10th grade students will be taking the Aspire Plus end of year state testing. The test are scheduled for Tuesday May 4th, and the second test date is on Tuesday May, 11th. Testing will start promptly at 8:10am. Students should arrive early to see which room they are assigned for testing. Both of these days will have a modified late start schedule for all Juniors and Seniors. The testing will finished by 10:40, and classes will start for everyone at 10:45am. We will have 44 minute classes for the rest of the day. Please remember that we will not have a modified bus schedule for those days. BUSES WILL RUN AT THE NORMAL SCHEULED TIMES.

We are excited to have spring here at Carbon High School. Many of our students are taking advantage of the great weather and riding skateboards, scooters, etc. to school. Although we are glad to see our students using alternative modes of transportation, we do not want to have that traffic in the school. All scooters, skateboards, or the like must be checked in at the office at the beginning of school and stored there during the day. Students can pick them up and use them at lunch and return them to the office until after school. The office has a secure rack to store these safely. Scooters, skateboards, etc. are not allowed in the classrooms. Thanks!

We are excited to announce that Carbon High School 2021 Graduation will be held at the Carbon High School football field on Thursday, May 27, 2021 at 11:00 AM. Feedback from seniors overwhelmingly indicated a desire to be with their class/friends and have their family there as well. The football field provides the best chance to have the full senior class together and to include more family and friends in celebrating this important day. Each student will receive 7 tickets for guests. In order to “walk” at graduation and receive those tickets, seniors will need to fill out a check-out sheet for grades, work off any U’s (citizenship), and pay all school fees in the Main Office. This is a formal event, however, we ask that high heels (with skinny heel tips that could puncture the track or sink into the field) NOT be worn in order to protect the participants and the track/field. More detailed information will follow.

Just a reminder that masks are still the rule at school. The following message was sent out by the Carbon School District on Friday as a reminder that we will still be requiring masks to be wore at schools through the end of the school year. CHS parents and students, please help us have a safe and successful end to the school year. CSD - We are grateful to be one of the very few districts in the U.S. to hold in-person school 5 days a week all school year long. We entered the school year with a commitment that "all healthy students need to be in school". Because of our compliance with our reopening plan and all other requirements, this commitment was realized. We are also grateful that our students have been able to participate in most extra-curricular activities and even prom. The Governor, in consultation with the Utah Department of Health, has extended the requirement for wearing masks in our schools until June 15th. Carbon School District is obligated to comply with this mandate. We ask for your support. We do not want to see any non-compliance negatively impact our students being able to participate in all the upcoming learning and activities. With only 7 weeks of school left, let's finish strong with our masks on! For more information on the mask mandate, please visit: https://coronavirus.utah.gov/education/
