FROM THE WEST OFFICE
Greetings Bruins! Here we are only weeks away from
spring break and the start of the final quarter of the school
year-where has the time gone? This period of the year is
exciting because we have meaningful work to accomplish
in addition to memorable activities that take place near
the end of the year. Perhaps the best part of spring is
an evitable increase in school spirit with the warmer
temperatures and limited time together as a Bruin Family.
The focus of this month at Creek is the TCAP/CSAP
assessment that will take place March 6th-8th. This
assessment is extremely important to both the individual
students and the school in general. As a school, we are
evaluated, graded, and rated based on formulas that
result in a great deal of weight toward CSAP/TCAP
performance. As many of you have read in this parent
mailer in previous months, I am thrilled with our ACT
and AP scores. In fact, last year we earned some of the
highest scores we have seen in our school history. At
the most recent school board meeting, I was presented
with the John Irwin School of Excellence Award that
is presented to all schools in the state of Colorado who
perform at specific levels in state assessments. Overall,
Cherry Creek High School is an exceptional school
that offers a comprehensive education that cannot be
matched. However, we do not show the same outstanding
performance we are accustomed to when it is time to take
the CSAP, or TCAP, as it is being called this year.
The CSAP is important to schools across the state of
Colorado, but it also plays a role in a student’s ability to
present themselves as a scholar. State law requires that
every school list the CSAP/TCAP scores on all student
transcripts. While college admission officers do invest
the majority of their interest in applicant’s GPA, course
load, recommendations, and scores on the ACT and
SAT, it is always possible that they will look at CSAP/
TCAP scores to verify that a student score is as strong on
the state assessment as in other areas. It is always in a
student’s best interest to demonstrate that they care about
learning and what type of scholar they are on a consistent
basis.
My request to parents and 9th and 10th students is simple
when it comes to the CSAP/TCAP. Give your best
effort and show how you have grown as a student. I am
confident that when our students give the CSAP/TCAP
their very best, we will hit the ball out of the park like
we do on every other assessment. At that point, Cherry
Creek will be the A+/#1 school in all rating systems that
we know her to be.
In other news, it is that time of year again that we begin
planning and registering for classes for the 2012-2013
school year. My advice to you is to initiate conversations
with your child about this process to be sure that your child
is making decisions based on what is best for him/her. Too
often I see unhappy and unhealthy kids who are trying to be
something they are not. I want every student to challenge
themselves and learn as much as possible. The important
piece to consider is that challenging oneself is unique for
every individual. Do not hesitate to call or email if you
want my additional insight on this process.
Finally, we have a series of celebrations that I do want to
highlight in my message this month. Cherry Creek High
School is the home of the Colorado Science Competition
State Champions. Our team of science students won the
state title on January 28th and will compete at Nationals
this spring. We received word last month that 25 of our
28 National Merit Semifinalists have advanced to Finalist
status. We are pleased to welcome Dave Logan to the
Bruin Family as our new football coach. He is a wonderful
coach and, more importantly, an outstanding role model for
our student/athletes. And the Unified basketball team for
students with disabilities completed their inaugural season
with spirited members. The program is a perfect example
of what is right in schools when all members of the studentbody have a voice and opportunity to shine.
I wish everyone in the “Bruin Family” a happy and healthy
spring. GO CREEK!
Sincerely,
Ryan T. Silva

2012 ACT EXAM
TCAPs at a Glance
(Transitional Colorado Assessment Program)
The Colorado state ACT Exam for current juniors
will be given on Tuesday, APRIL 24th.
All juniors will test from 7:10 a.m. to 11:05 a.m.
WHAT: TCAPs are the tests that have replaced the
CSAPs. Freshmen and sophomores will take the TCAPs at
school on March 6th-8th
There will be NO SCHOOL for freshmen, sophomores
and seniors that morning. School will resume for
everyone at 11:15 a.m. (5th period). Buses will pick
up at the regularly scheduled times for juniors. Buses
will pick up again four hours after the regularly scheduled time for freshmen, sophomores and seniors. For
example, if your sophomore is usually picked up at
6:08 a.m., he or she will be picked up at 10:08 a.m.
WHY: TCAP scores indicate the level of a student’s
achievement and measure that student’s growth over time.
TCAPs measure how students compare skill wise to all
other students in Colorado, an important indication of
college readiness. TCAP scores and growth are the #1 tools
for rating schools in Colorado.
HOW DO WE RANK? Our 2011 results placed us
#3 in the district (behind Grandview and Cherokee Trail)
Our median growth in Writing was only 48% - last in
the district. CCHS is ranked 50th out of 324 public high
schools by Colorado School Grades.
WHY DO THEY COUNT FOR STUDENTS? TCAP
scores are reported on all transcripts as part of students’
permanent records. College applications require transcripts.
Colleges look at CCHS’s ranking in Colorado.
WHAT CHANGES IS CCHS IMPLEMENTING?
Students will test with teachers they know, rather than
alphabetically. 2012 tests will be re-ordered so that the
Writing draft and the final Writing essay will no longer be
on the same day. We will have new Academic Awards next
year for students who show impressive growth
from 2011 to 2012.
WHAT CAN PARENTS DO TO HELP?
Discuss your students’ 2011 scores and growth percentiles
(click on the CDE Student Growth icon on your student’s
Power School home page). Reinforce that our 2011 test
results do not reflect our students’ abilities.
Encourage your student to set an improvement goal for
2012 and to do his/her best.
Do not allow your student to “opt out” of the test,
which can affect our ranking.
Show what you know and how you have grown!

(Parent/Teacher/Community Organization)
What an amazing year Cherry Creek has had so far. Look out because there is a lot more ahead!
We hope you will stay involved by volunteering at events, attending spring sports events and Fine Arts productions.
Don’t forget all of the other wonderful Club and Co-curricular happenings. So many of our kids are involved in
activities that will take them to local, state and national competitions. We congratulate all of the students, devoted
teachers, administrators, staff and parents who support and encourage every level of success. It truly takes the hard
work of so many to make Creek the exceptional school community that it is.
THANK YOU ALL!! Enjoy your Spring Break.
Deb Hester and Penny Malloy
CCHS PTCO Co-Presidents
Celebrating Volunteers...Thank you for all you do!!!
On February 9th, in the Fine Arts Theatre lobby, an
amazing group gathered for our Volunteer Coffee. It was a
wonderful time to connect and honor the numerous hours
that so many people have given to our school. To all of the
volunteers who were unable to attend, please know that you
are very appreciated.
Our PTCO meeting followed with
the introduction of this year’s CCHS
Teachers of the Year, Steve
Lohman and Jim Conrad. These two
teachers represent the best of the
best at Creek. Please thank them if
you get the opportunity!
A very special thank you goes to
Nathan Montgomery and Girl’s 21
(under the direction of Adam Cave) for their amazing performances at our event. We all enjoyed and appreciated every
note!
MARCH PTCO Meeting Change!
Due to TCAP’s, the March PTCO General Meeting has
been moved to Friday, March 9th at 9 a.m. in the
Fine Arts Lobby. This meeting will take on a different
format from our usual meetings. YOU will have a chance
to speak your mind and ask questions!
Have you ever wanted to ask questions of the Administrators and didn’t have the opportunity? Do you want
to know why Creek does things differently from other
CCSD High Schools? Do you have any suggestions for
what the PTCO or Creek should be doing differently?
Here is your chance to SPEAK UP!
Come prepared with your questions and our panel of
Administrators will be on hand to provide answers. In
addition, you will hear a state of the school update for
our Principal, Mr. Ryan Silva, and hear about upcoming
activities you’ll want to know about.
TALK ABOUT WONDERFUL VOLUNTEERS –
CCHS Accountability Committee
Thank you to Sue Bouck and Debbie Keesling for making the Volunteer Appreciation Coffee such a successful event.
The Cherry Creek High School Accountability Committee meets one Tuesday evening of each month from
5:00-6:30 p.m. in the West Main Office Conference
Room.
Thanks also to Nikki Gordon and Mary Ann Hampton
for all of their work to fill our PTCO slate for the
2012 - 2013 school year and to all of you who have said
“yes’ to their requests!
Thank you to our Brown Bag chairs (Dessa Bokides
and Susan Rothenberg) who do a great job encouraging working parents to meet monthly to hear what
is going on at Creek. Thanks to Diane Robinson and
Mancy Jolliffe for managing Creek Accountability and
Judy Sussman for her work on District
Accountability!
Thank you to Karen Fisher for keeping the community
informed with Community Connections.
We look at how Cherry Creek High School is meeting its
accountability goals for excellence and equity, for college
and post-secondary success, for a safe and caring environment, and for partnering with students, parents and
community members in the education process. Please
let us know if you are interested in regularly attending
our meetings, and feel free to contact us with questions.

PTCO Minutes of General Meeting
Thursday, February 9, 2012
Meeting was called to order at 9:20 a.m. by co-president Deb Hester.
Girls’ 21 choir performed for the group. A special thanks also to Nathan Montgomery for his wonderful guitar playing before the
choir arrived. The minutes from the January general meeting were approved by a unanimous vote. All PTCO volunteers were thanked
for their tireless efforts in support of Creek.
Student Senate: Wish Week is February 27th-March 2nd. The first Make a Wish recipient is Haley, an 11 year old with lymphoma who
wants to take a Disney Cruise. The second request comes from Jeremy Bloom’s foundation. James is a 69 year old veteran who loves
to swing dance. He had not been home to Minnesota in quite some time because of his physical restrictions so he will be given a trip
home. Events during the week include putt-putt/karaoke, food sales (burritos and a night at Pasquinis), a Talent Show, a celebrity
basketball game on Wed. at 7:00 p.m. (parents are encouraged to attend) and the Pep Assembly on Friday. The students hope to raise
at least $10,000. Last year’s total was $25,000, so they would like to get close to that amount again.
Principal’s Report:
Congratulations to the Teachers of the Year, Steve Lohman (science teacher, x-country coach) and Jim Conrad (business teacher and
DECA leader). Creek 101 is finishing up and the freshmen are being given help before pre-registration for next year’s classes. The attendance at Snowball was incredibly poor. Athletics-Swimming has state this Saturday (they ended up in 2nd place, congrats). Wrestling regional’s are also coming up. Four Creek students/alum are being honored by Colorado Sportswomen of the Year, Ryan McLane,
Jordan Colter, Bonnie Brandon and Bailey Zerr. We are excited to have Dave Logan as our new football coach. And despite all rumors
to the contrary, Mr. Silva never had any conversations with Coach Logan until after he was fired by Mullen. Mr. Silva is using some of
his discretionary money to hire an after school security guard. Currently, all security guards shifts end at the end of the school day.
The new hire will work from 1:00 a.m.-6:00 a.m.. Mr. Silva then introduced Karen Fisher from the committee he formed to determine
how to insure students take the CSAP tests more seriously. Karen explained the five bullet points the committee is trying to instill in
the students: (1) CSAP/TCAP measure growth now, (2) we are number three in district, (3) it does count on your permanent record,
(4) show school pride and (5) what is your school goal.
Committee Reports:
Day at the Capitol has been changed to March 20th.
The meeting was adjourned at 10:42 am.

CREEK COUNSELING CONNECTION
Everything is connected…no one thing can change by itself.” ~ Paul Hawken
THIRD QUARTER BLUES
Is your son or daughter struggling academically? Is your son or daughter tired of school? Is your son or
daughter wishing for winter and third quarter to be over? If you answered YES to any of these questions,
please read on.
Third quarter is by far the longest and hardest quarter. Third quarter has no real breaks, except for President’s Day, and it is dark and cold when students come to school, and for many of our students it is dark
and cold when they leave school.
Third quarter is the quarter that students tend to slip academically. Particularly because of the weather
and time change but also because they have reached that point when they think they know it all and are
bored. Below are some pointers to help give them some motivation to make it until SPRING BREAK.
In school:
Get back in the habit of writing down homework assignments.
Get back in a study routine.
Make an effort to see teachers and ask for help outside of class.
Spend off periods studying.
See counselor or on-call counselor for a pep talk, study tips and tutor lists.
Outside school:
Have a set study schedule.
Study at a desk or table.
Have a homework plan.
Eat breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Go to bed early.
And enjoy the snow; it will be gone soon!!! We hope this helps with some ideas to get through until
Spring Break. As always please call, or better yet, email your son or daughter’s counselor if you have
more concerns or questions.

SENIORS Spring is near and it will be a big time in your life! Most of you have filed your applications, some of you may
have already received your admission decisions, others may be waiting to hear back from colleges on April 1 st, and others may be starting to contemplate where you want to be next year! Wherever you are in the process, remember that the Post Graduate Center and your
counselor are great resources as you embark on an exciting decision in your life!
Our Post Grad Specialists - Kathy Franklin, Peggy Martin, and Cyd Tully - are available to help students at any time. These ladies are
who makes the post grad center run like a “well-oiled machine,” and will help with any of the following:
 Completing a college application
 Searching for possible scholarships
 Navigating Naviance
 Answering any of your college- or career-related questions!
If you need some help finishing your college applications or finding scholarships, come see us!
If you are applying for financial aid, we recommend that families have filed the Free Application for Federal Student
Aid (FAFSA) by now, or that they do it VERY soon. FAFSA forms are available online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Remember to apply for a PIN number before filing your FAFSA, which you can do at www.pin.ed.gov.
Also check with your colleges to see if they require the CSS Profile as an additional financial form. The Profile can be
found online at http://profileonline.collegeboard.com.
If you are applying for scholarships, deadlines are quickly approaching. Remember to access our scholarship listing on Naviance.
In order to participate and march in the May CCHS graduation ceremony, you must have completed all 22 of your required graduation
credits. Seniors who have not completed all requirements will not be allowed to participate in the May ceremony.
Remember that the college you will attend requires your final transcript after graduation—so do not slack off! Your
colleges admitted you based on your academic performance through 6 th or 7th semester, and they expect you to continue that
performance until the end of your senior year. Colleges have been known to rescind admission to students based on final
grades. Do not put yourself in this stressful position!

Teacher Recommendation Letters: If you plan to apply to colleges that require recommendation letters, we highly
encourage you to approach a teacher who you feel could write a strong letter on your behalf. Some teachers receive requests for letters from over 50 students, and often spend an average of 45 to 60 minutes on each letter. Do them a favor
and ask them well in advance! And be sure to say “Thank you!” Teacher Recommendation Forms are available on
your Naviance homepage. Complete the form, print it out, and get it to your recommender AFTER they have agreed to
write your letter.

ACTIVITIES
The month of February is a short month, and yet the students
participating in Activities make good use of each of these days.
Although it seems hard to believe, there are still new clubs that are
forming. So, if you know of a student who hasn’t quite found his/her
niche, feel free to contact the Activities Office. Unfortunately, the
19th Annual Diversity Conference ended up being cancelled due to
the record setting snowstorm the first week of February. However,
midway through the month, a local restaurant hosted the fifty students who had worked so hard for nearly a year to plan the event.
During this month, CCHS hosted Ethnic Fest. The celebration was
well attended, and the consensus was that general merriment was
had by all. Although I’m writing this article prior to the return of the
following groups from their trips, I know that they all surely represented us well: Speech and Debate traveled to Berkley, California,
the Troubadors traveled to San Antonio, and DECA concluded the
month with the DECA State Conference in Colorado Springs. The
end of February marked our 3rd Annual Wish Week. The students,
parents, and community have always responded in such a heartwarming way to this week’s aims. Thank you for your support and
for helping our students learn a valuable lesson on how to show we
should care for others, both young and old.
During March, we will conclude Wish Week with our student
and faculty Talent Show on March 1st in the Fine Arts Theatre.
Students, parents, and community members are invited to attend
the event, with all proceeds being donated to the Make-a-Wish
Foundation and to Jeremy Bloom’s Wish of a Lifetime Foundation.
Friday, March 2nd, we will follow assembly schedule 1 (see page 6
of Bear Facts). During the assembly, our students will meet our two
Wish Week recipients: Haley, an 11 year old with Acute Lymphatic
Leukemia, who wishes to go on a Disney Cruise and Mr. Thomson,
a 69 year old former Marine, whose wish is to travel back home to
Minnesota to see friends and family after a 20 year absence.
Once Wish Week concludes, activities at Creek will take a back seat
to the TCAP testing. However, this year’s spring musical, The
Drowsy Chaperone, running from March 14th-March 17th, will
give our students the perfect opportunity to celebrate all that
Creek’s Fine Arts Department and Theatre have to offer. Please
be sure to check the CCHS website for show times and to purchase
tickets in advance. Tickets are available at the ticket booth in the
Fine Arts Building and online. In addition, back by popular demand
will be the pairing of the Jazz Band with the Union Street Jazz
Choir on March 20th in the Fine Arts Theatre. And, finally, to conclude the month, Girl’s 21 will head on their international singing
tour to Vienna and Prague.
A Senior Information Brochure will be sent home with 3rd quarter
grades to all families who have a student graduating. In this brochure are important dates and information about graduation and
post-graduate planning. This information is extremely important!
Graduation Performance Auditions are April 10th and 11th. Students who would like information about auditions can stop by the
Activities Center; students can sign up for auditions from February
27th until March 23rd in the Activities Center as well.
It’s never too late to get involved in clubs and extracurricular activities. Student Senate elections will take place during April, and there
are many clubs still looking for new members. Likewise, interest
meetings for students interested in Senate, induction ceremonies,
and applications for co-curricular clubs or community service-oriented clubs will be popping up soon, so please remind your students to
keep their eyes and ears open. Finally, I always welcome students
to come to the Activities Center if they have questions about clubs.

COLT Club Update!
It’s been an interesting winter so far here in
Colorado, which has made for a fun and adventurous COLT club winter. We all know the phrase in
Colorado, “If you like the weather now, just wait five
minutes…” Well because of the lack of ice so far this
season, the ice climbing trip morphed into a wonderful day of rock climbing. On Saturday, January 28th,
COLT trip participants traveled to Table Mountain in
Golden. What started out as a cold day turned into
a beautiful Saturday filled with harnesses, helmets,
rocks, and Cherry Creek students defying gravity.
Climbing competitions number five and six were
full of excitement with the girls team taking 1st and
the boys taking 2nd for competition number five. At
competition five, Aaron Bugh led the way for the
CCHS boys by taking second with a score of 4495,
while Katie Craighead took third for the girls, with
a score of 1760. Competition six was a bouldering
only competition and it provided much entertainment. The competition was especially exciting in
the girls category, as Katie Craighead and Kayleigh
Linfors from Thunder Ridge High School, fought till
the end with an exciting tie-breaking climb for first
place. It was a hard-fought battle, but in the end,
Katie Craighead and Alexis Lahana took second
and third respectively for CCHS. Aaron Bugh
climbed his way to a first place victory for the
boys. Overall, our boys team is currently second
place in the league, while the CCHS girls are leading
the way in first place. It has been a great season so
far for the COLT climbing team!
Join us for the following adventures coming up this
month…..

Cherry Creek High School Girls' Lacrosse
2011 State Champions
On The Band Beat
The Percussion Ensemble is hard at work preparing for Rocky Mountain Percussion Association (RMPA)
competitions beginning in March, with finals on April 7th. This year’s show consists of three pieces:
“Jadoo”, “It’s Alive”, and “Frankenstein”, all arranged by Chris Smith, a renowned composer and teacher.
Director Dana Slabaugh says, “The show is incredibly challenging. The Ensemble is doing great tackling
something this hard. The music is crazy-fun rock and roll. The kids love it.” Slabaugh is supported by assistant Jeff Gleason and student directors Ellen Singel and Jackson Wolfe.
The Percussion Ensemble, which competes in the RMPA Scholastic Concert World division, earned second
place last year in a four-school match-up. Perennial favorite, Bear Creek High School (Lakewood), has won
for the past three seasons. Wolfe stated, “We are going after Bear Creek this year. Our music is fun and
people are familiar with it--especially ‘Frankenstein’.” This 1973 Edgar Winter Group piece was featured
in the movie “Wayne’s World 2” and on The Weather Channel’s “Local on the 8s”. Good luck to Creek’s
talented Percussion Ensemble!

Family Dynamics: “When One Child Requires More
Time & Energy”
Laura Ayres is a former teacher, a CCSD parent, a Parent Connector for PEAK
Parent Center, the parent training and information center for the State of CO,
and the co-chair of SEAC (Special Ed Advisory Committee) for the Cherry Creek School District.
Laura and her husband, Brad, have one son in college and another who is in 9th grade. She
understands the dynamics that affect families when one child has needs that require additional parenting energy
and time, whether its learning disabilities, behavioral issues, strong personality traits, or other
concerns that take special attention. To quote Laura,”I am not famous, I have not written any books, but I
have learned a lot about raising a child with a disability, and one without, and how to advocate for children in any
situation”.
Presentations are held the first Tuesday of each month and FREE
Held at the Student Achievement Resource Center (SARC).
14188 Briarwood Avenue, Centennial, south of Arapahoe Rd., between Potomac and Jordan

Outdoorsman, Survivor, Aron Ralston to speak at
Cherry Creek Schools Foundation Luncheon
Just a decade after he graduated from Cherry Creek High School, Aron Ralston came face to face with
death. Alone in a Utah canyon, his right arm crushed and pinned by an 800 pound boulder, Ralston
somehow found the will to live. He will share his remarkable story of survival at the 18th Annual
Cherry Creek Schools Foundation Luncheon from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Thursday, March
15, at the Hyatt Regency Denver Tech Center, 7800 E. Tufts Ave. Individual tickets are $100 and
may be purchased online at www.blacktie-colorado.com/rsvp. Enter event code CCSF315.
The theme of this year’s luncheon is “Mastering Excellence in Education.” As a student at Cherry
Creek High School, Ralston participated in National Honor Society, Model United Nations, Jazz Band
and lacrosse. After his graduation in 1993, he attended Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania, where he earned degrees in mechanical engineering and French, as well as a minor in
piano. He then worked as a mechanical engineer for Intel, before giving up his job to pursue his
passion for the great outdoors. Ralston documented his near-death experience in his best-selling
autobiography “Between a Rock and a Hard Place” which was adapted for the 2010 Oscar nominated
film “127 Hours” directed by Danny Boyle and starring James Franco.
“We are honored to have Aron Ralston share his compelling and inspiring story with the Cherry Creek
Schools community,” said Foundation Board Chairperson Michele Beserra.
Slam poet Jovan Mays, a graduate of Smoky Hill High School, and students from Fox Hollow
Elementary will also perform at the luncheon, which is presented by the Cherry Creek Schools
Foundation and sponsored by EKS&H, 1ST Bank and tw telecom. The luncheon benefits the Cherry
Creek School District and its 50,000 students.
Three students will receive special scholarships during the luncheon:
 Two students will receive the AVID Giving Generation Scholarship, which recognizes
exceptional AVID students. AVID, or Advancement Via Individual Determination, is a
program that prepares students, especially those in the academic middle, for college eligibility
and success.
-more-
-2
One student will receive the Monte C. Moses Future Educator Scholarship, which is
awarded annually to a student who plans to study education in college and pursue a career in
teaching. The scholarship is presented in honor of former Cherry Creek Schools
Superintendent Monte Moses, who was the 2005 National Superintendent of the Year.
During the luncheon, the Cherry Creek Schools Foundation will also honor district and community
members for their support of excellence in education:
 Julie Mork will be recognized as the Foundation’s 2012 Champions of Education Honoree
for her long-time service and dedication to Cherry Creek Schools and public education. She is
the managing director of Energy Corporation of America Foundation, Inc., a private foundation
focusing on youth and education. Mork also served on the Cherry Creek Schools Foundation
Board for six years.

Mark Overmeyer will be recognized as the 2012 Catherine Canny Award Honoree. He has
23 years of teaching experience as a classroom teacher in grades two through six, a special
education and Title I teacher, and a coordinator for gifted programming, all in the Cherry Creek
School District.
In the past 17 years, the Cherry Creek Schools Foundation has raised and distributed more than $7
million dollars to support programs that impact student achievement and benefit students and teachers
throughout the Cherry Creek School District. For more information about the Foundation or the
Foundation Luncheon, call 720-554-4409 or visit www.ccsdfoundation.org.
