Dear Bruins,
Our 60th year is quickly coming to an end. With the
start of the fourth quarter having arrived, we have only
38 days remaining prior to graduation on Wednesday,
May 20th. Or, if you think like our students, we have 28
school days before the Class of 2015 graduates. Remind
your kids to enjoy the time ahead as it will pass quickly.
The month of March was full of activity and celebration.
In Twitter fashion here is a recap of the month of March.
1. Congratulations to the 592 seniors and juniors who earned a letter for excellence in academics. It is a joy leading a school where it
is cool to be smart and to earn good grades.
2. The CCHS Production of Cinderella was a smashing
hit for theater goers of all ages. Bravo to the cast and crew!
3. CC DECA had a record high of 83 students
qualify for the national competition. Best of luck!
4. The Creek Hockey Team captured the hearts
of Bruins and non-Bruins with a magical run that
included a 6 OT Frozen Four win against Dakota Ridge followed by a title victory in the third
OT v. Monarch. Congratulations to the champs!
5. The Lady Bruins Basketball Team advanced to the Final
Four. I’m very proud of the team for an outstanding season.
6. Cherry Creek would not be the same without the support of our parents. The Exceptional Volunteer of the Year for CC is Christine
Tesmer. Thank you Christine for all you do!
In the recent past we hosted a college admissions
director during our Coming Back to Creek event.
The guest speaker was Alex Subert. He is the Senior
Assistant Director of Admissions at the University
of Colorado at Boulder. Alex shared his knowledge
with the students and parents in attendance regarding the admission process. He left the audience with
advice that will prepare both seniors and their parents
for the transition to college. His advice is as follows:
For students:
1. Don’t be intimidated by anyone—by faculty, upperclassmen, or administrators. People can be more knowledgeable, but every perspective is unique and no one else
has yours. Everyone is equally intimidated by the college
transition process, so keep that in mind. Confidence is cool.
2. Learn to be comfortable saying “no.” Socially, we feel
uncomfortable saying no because we want to create bonds
and work with people, but it can be very useful. Remember,
“no, I can’t go to the movie because I have to study.” It
also keeps you safe if you find yourself in sketchy situations.
3. Practice failing at something. No one is perfect
100% of the time and you will learn more and have a
more enriching experience if you challenge yourself.
4. The next four years do not define your life—it’s only a part.
Don’t put too much pressure on yourself and don’t stress out too
much about choosing a major. Remember that 80% of college
students change their major at least once, but the average student changes their major 3-5 times.
5. Call your parents and family. College is a time
of exploration, so bring them along on the journey.
For parents:
1. Send care packages to your student—it lets them know that
you’re thinking about them.
2. Think about the transition to college like you are teaching
your son or daughter to drive. Only they can do is, and all
you can do it help. Sometimes it’s stressful and you’re holding the dash and sometimes you have to grab the wheel and
help steer, but ultimately they have to learn on their own.
3.Trust your student—you raised good, moral, hard-working
people; look at how successful they have been up to this
point. Particularly when thinking about partying—remember, every school is a party school if you’re a partier.
For both:
Have fun and enjoy the next 9 months. It’s a shame that senior year
you spend half of the time mentally being somewhere else. Students
are becoming adults and then, unfortunately, moving on. For students, spend time with friends, go to prom, and go to various events.
During the month of April, it is important that we focus
on our seniors. 66 yes, that is the number of days we have
remaining with our seniors before they walk across the
stage at Stutler Bowl to receive their diploma. I certainly
do not have to tell you that this time will pass by quickly
as many of you have already shared with me that it seems
that it was just yesterday that you were wiping away your
tears after taking your child to their first day of kindergarten.
My recommendations for the second semester are simple
but important. First, take photos of your senior, much
like you did when they were toddlers. There are so many
important moments that you will want to capture forever.
Second, stay connected. I regularly remind the faculty
that our seniors may have beards and the bodies of adults,
but they are still kids. They may not always act like it,
but they still need their parents just as they did when they
had food on their faces and shiny sleeves from their runny
nose. Third, require your kids to try new experiences at
home that may not be considered fun, but they will make
the transition to college and life alone much easier. Yes,
I am talking about laundry, cooking, and personal banking. Finally, the most important recommendation is that
you schedule time to be together as a family. Our students
are extremely busy with their academics, extra-curricular
activities, and their social life, but regular family dinners or
Starbucks trips together are important for parents and kids.
I hope to see you at school in the coming months at any
of our school activities that you will find in the Home
Herald or on our website. Have a wonderful month!
Best wishes,
Ryan T. Silva, Principal

PTCO MEETING RECAP ~ January 8, 2015
The meeting was called to order at 6:05 p.m. by Stephanie Kallet.
Panel Discussion, Healing Our Youth: Michael Mazenko coordinates programs and events at Creek. He received a lot of
input last year that a conversation about the pressures facing our kids would make a good panel discussion. Michael introduced
Valerie Purser, the Executive Director of South Metro Health Alliance, and panelist host. Valerie said that two counselors are
on hand if you want to have a one-on-one session at any point during the evening. There are also many opportunities for mental
health classes and certification in the metro area.
Gina Moore, President of NAMI Arapahoe and Douglas. This is her personal journey. Her son exhibited signs of depression
as early as 4 months old. He had severe separation anxiety, angry outbursts, and was a poor sleeper. Gina’s son is doing much
better now, but she often wonders if she should have sought help for him earlier. Gina said to get help for yourself or a loved
one if you think there is need.
Dr. Amy Gensler, Parker Pediatrics and Adolescents. Dr. Gensler has two children. She says that mental disorders are a
neurobiological brain disorder. 1 in 4 adults, and 1 in 5 children, have a diagnosable mental disorder in any given year. 50% of
lifetime mental disorders present themselves by 14 years of age. The brain doesn’t fully finish developing until age 25. Teen
stress is particularly harmful. These stressors are: 1. school, 2. family, 3. social, and 4. time. Chronic stress during the teen
years is very detrimental to brain development. The biggest thing you can do to help your kids is to make sure they are getting
enough sleep.
Dennis Ballinger, Arapahoe/Douglas Mental Health Network. Dennis mentioned that the onset of addiction typically happens before 21 years old. Marijuana has been shown to lead to a significant decrease in IQ levels among heavy users. Marijuana
today is much stronger than it used to be and kids in Colorado are under the mistaken impression that since it is legal, it is not
harmful. Nicotine is a very frightening gateway drug. The biggest thing you can do to help your children navigate drugs and
alcohol is to delay their use.
Jocelyn Hilling, At Peace Therapy Centers. Jocelyn said that mental illness is not a one-size-fits-all issue. People are different, but she presented some signs and symptoms of depression. Time management is a big part of helping your children. Mental
illness is a treatable condition.
Casey McAndrew, Youth Action Board, Children’s Hospital Colorado. Casey shared her experience with mental illness and
time spent in a psychiatric ward. She says our culture would benefit from treating the whole person with integrative medicine.
Is there any definitive research on the link between diet and managing ADD and ADHD? According to Jocelyn, taking a holistic
approach to health care and possibly adding supplements under the care of a doctor or psychiatrist can help.
PTCO MEETING RECAP ~ February 5, 2015
Call to Order/Welcome: The meeting was called to order at 9:15 am by Stephanie Kallet. Stephanie said thanks to all the
volunteers for everything they do for the school and students. Penny moved to approve the minutes from December and January, seconded by Joan Adams, and unanimously approved. February 9, 2015 is the Parent’s Council meeting at 9:15 am. This
meeting will be held at SARC with Dr. Bull in a Q&A format. The February accountability meeting has been canceled due to a
non-contact day.
After Prom Update: Paula Romero Schmidt and Catherine Cooper provided an After Prom update. The event will be on
Saturday, May 16th, at the Brunswick Zone in Lonetree. There will be activities for the students to choose from, including an
Italian dinner buffet. There are many parent volunteers needed. Karen Petroff is the After Prom fund raising chair. Karen
mentioned that After Prom is looking for fund raising donations from businesses and parents.
Senate Students: Wish Week Activities: The Student Body President mentioned that the Mr. Creek contest held last week
raised over $750 with proceeds going to Wish Week and DECA. Swishes for Wishes was held last night and raised over $1000.
The Community event sing-along brought in $450 Creek has raised over $6000 so far for Wish Week. The Talent Show will be
held tonight at 5 p.m., the pep assembly is tomorrow, and the Snowball Dance will be held tomorrow night after the basketball
game. There is a link under activities on the CCHS website if you’d like to donate to Wish Week.
Principal Ryan Silva, “State of Creek” update: The AP Computer class unveiled their computer software program built for
Creek’s Master Schedule. The AP class worked with the Registrar on this program. CCHS has two primary goals of Excellence
and Equity. For Excellence, Principal Silva mentioned increasing our numbers around all four college readiness benchmarks. It
is hard to meet all four benchmarks. Creek’s Equity goal is to raise the graduation rate so that all populations meet 90%. It
is good to have these goals working in conjunction with one another. Students did very well on the ACT, reporting the highest
numbers in the state. Creek has had an increase in the graduation rate for black students, but we still need to increase the
Hispanic graduation rate. Black students now have the highest graduation rate at CCHS. All of this data is available on the
Colorado Department of Education (CDE) website. There are two areas we need to concentrate on: Hispanic students, and all
boys, with the exception of Asians. CCHS’s 1% drop-out rate is the lowest in the district. The Diversity Conference was held
on Saturday with over 89 schools and 1000 students in attendance. The conference has been held for 22 years. Twenty-five
student athletes signed letters of intent yesterday and 12 signed in the fall. Security cameras have been installed in the common areas at school and outside. These are much-improved, very high resolution cameras. Last week there was a fire alarm in
the West Building. Fortunately, there was no fire, but there was a lot of smoke from a transformer box. A 911 call went out as
an active fire warranting lots of police response. The February non-contact day will include a secure perimeter drill as there are
new areas to secure and test. Meeting adjourned at 10:55 am.

COUNSELING CONNECTION
Cherry Creek High School: Bullying and Climate
In July 2012, the Colorado Department of Education passed House Bill 11-1254 which is a grant
program for schools to implement bullying prevention and education and does the following:



Requires the Department of Education to provide bullying prevention resources online.
Requires districts to update bullying policies.
Expands the legal definition of bullying (adds language around electronic bullying and
mentions a specific prohibition of bullying based on disability, race, creed, color, sex,
sexual orientation, national origin, religion, ancestry, or need for special education
service.
According to HB 11-1254, "Bullying" means any written or verbal expression, or physical or
electronic act or gesture, or pattern thereof, that is intended to coerce, intimidate, or cause any
physical, mental, or emotional harm to any student. "Bullying" is prohibited against any student
for any reason, including but not limited to any such behavior that is directed toward a student
on the basis of his or her academic performance; or against whom federal and state laws

CCHS has policies and procedures for handling bullying behavior when it occurs, which can be
found in your students’ Bear Facts and are available from the Deans. Our faculty and staff also
receive training in what to do to interrupt and address bullying behavior when it is observed
and are a presence in the halls during passing periods to provide additional supervision.
However, in addition to addressing bullying behavior when it occurs, we know it is also
important to continue to work on building a positive climate where character and kindness are
emphasized. The Cherry Creek High School Vision statement, posted in many places around
school, states Cherry Creek High School graduates:

Understand and respect various cultures and subcultures; treat others with respect and
dignity.

Self-advocate and take responsibility for their actions and behaviors
Prevention/education efforts have increased significantly over the years and students continue
to drive many of the efforts which contribute to a culture of tolerance and respect. The recent
Make a Wish week raised enough money to grant the wishes of three children suffering from
life threatening illnesses, possible due to the school wide involvement in what has become an
annual event. Ethnic Fest this year expanded again in its mission to provide opportunities for
our community to learn about different cultures. In April we will be holding Teen Awareness
Week to address a number of issues including suicide, body image, stress management and
COUNSELING CONNECTION
healthy living. In process is a plan to reinstate The Alphabet Project, which is co-sponsored by
the South East Rotary Club. The purpose of this project is to broaden student awareness and
support of human diversity and culminates during Human Rights Awareness Week in
December. Student Senate is also developing a project aimed at addressing cyber bullying, to
be rolled out in the spring.
The curriculum of Creek 101, required for all freshmen, includes a direct discussion of the legal
implications of bullying. However, the model of this class was specifically designed to provide a
safe place with a teacher where students can discuss the difficulties in making the transition to
high school. Principal Silva has made a point of bringing in a speaker with a positive message
for all students to hear every year. In previous years, Rachel’s Challenge has provided the
students with the messages aimed at combatting bullying and allaying feelings of isolation and
despair to create a culture of kindness and compassion (http://www.rachelschallenge.org/bigpicture/about-rachels-challenge/ for additional information).
Finally, here are just a few of the student groups aimed at increasing respect and tolerance for
differences and spreading messages related to kindness have included:
SPOT (Suicide Prevention of Teens)
Diversity Task Force
Spectrum/Gay Straight Alliance
Big Sisters
Open Arms
Empty Bowls
Awareness
BRUINS Squad
Peer Ambassadors
If your student is interested in any of these or in other ways they can be involved in
contributing to CCHS being a safe place for all, the best place to start is with our Activities
department to see what club or activity best fits their interests.

Announcements for Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors!
Be sure to attend our Inaugural Evening with the College Deans – Wednesday, April 22 at 6:30 PM in the Fine Arts Theater.
9th-11th grade students and parents should attend this informational night as we host the Deans of Admissions from the University of
Chicago, Case Western Reserve University, and the University of Maryland, College Park. Several things will be explained to help you
understand the college process from the admissions side of the desk and advice from some of the top minds in college admissions. See
you there.
We have a lot of important information to share this month for seniors, juniors, and sophomores, so please read carefully and
check the board outside of the Post Grad Center.
SENIORS
As this newsletter arrives in your mailbox, so do many of the anxiously awaited admission decision letters. There will be cheers and
tears both, but we hope all your hard work in the admission process will be rewarded. A few reminders that sometimes gets lost in the
excitement:
Class of 2015
May the force be with you
Join us on Thursday, April 23rd for SENIOR DAY IN POST GRAD! Come in to say hi, let us know what you are
thinking in terms of life after Creek, munch on some snacks, complete the senior surveys on Naviance, sign the post
grad windows, and put your pin in the graduation map! Whether you just want someone to bounce ideas off of, need
more specific assistance in comparing your college options, we are here to help and would love to see you!

May 1st, 2015 is the Candidate Reply Date. You must confirm your acceptance with your first choice college, typically by sending
in a tuition and housing deposit. Meeting this deadline is critical as colleges continue to receive record numbers of interested
students. You could miss your chance to enroll by missing the deadline.

Inform your other colleges choices of your intention to attend elsewhere. This is a common courtesy, often overlooked by
students, that lets colleges know where you stand. Generally this information is preferred in writing; an email will suffice.

You will find our 2015 CCHS Scholarship Form in this edition of the Home Herald. We want to congratulate all of you! To meet
publishing deadlines for including names in the USJ Senior Edition, and to be able to report the phenomenal amount of monies
being offered to your class, we need these forms turned in to post grad no later than FRIDAY, APRIL 10 th. Complete a scholarship
form with each scholarship awarded, whether you plan on accepting it or not.

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, but 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!
Juniors
If you have not yet done so, please schedule your Junior Conference with your counselor. This meeting is invaluable for
ensuring that you meet all graduation requirements, register for the correct courses, and are off to a good start in your postgraduation planning. Parents are highly encouraged to attend if possible!
Teacher Recommendation Letters: If you plan to apply to colleges that require recommendation letters, we highly encourage
you to approach one 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 hand it to your recommender AFTER they have agreed to write your letter.
The State ACT will be administered on Tuesday, April 28th, 2015. Students do not pay for the administration of
this test. This score is considered an official test score by all colleges and universities, including military academies
and NCAA Eligibility Center. Do your best!
If you are applying to colleges/universities that require the option writing section of the ACT, you will need to register for a
national test date. Check the website of the colleges you are considering to determine their testing requirements. We encourage
you to take the test either in June, September, or October. You can register at www.actstudent.org
Juniors, remember to take advantage of the four free score reports you can send to colleges when you complete your
registration for the ACT and/or SAT!
Creek 201 kicks off in April and students will attend two mandatory lunchtime small group sessions with their counselor,
focusing on interest and career exploration. Students will complete a career interest inventory on Naviance and save careers to
a list that could lead to possible majors and colleges in the future. Thank you for your attention in completing your Creek 201
tasks.
Freshmen should focus on a strong finish to their 2 nd semester. Grades in rigorous classes are the most important thing at this
point. Students should take self-scheduling seriously as they consider their schedule for sophomore year. Students who have
questions about self-scheduling should see one of our On-Call Counselors during 4th, 5th, or 6th period in the counseling office.
Have a wonderful and refreshing Spring!

Hello from the Activities Office!
The end of Spring Break means the beginning

Students can pre-purchase tickets in activities for
$10, or they can buy them at the door for $15.
Prom will be held this year at Infinity Park in
Glendale on May 16th. The Junior and Sophomore classes have been hard at work to make
sure this evening is a night to remember. As a
reminder, if your student is planning to bring
a guest from another school, they will need to
register their guest ahead of time. Forms can
be picked up in Activities and guests must be
registered by Thursday, May 14th at 3:15 p.m.

Congratulations to all of these students!
Happy Spring and GO BRUINS!

ATHLETICS
Spring time is in the air, but our last couple of winter
sports programs finished their season on a great note.
Women’s basketball won their Elite 8 game at the Denver
Coliseum versus top ranked Highlands Ranch. That win
earned the lady Bruins a trip to CU Boulder for a Final
Four game against Broomfield. The ladies did not win
that game as Broomfield went on to win it all, but the team
had a phenomenal season as they won the league title and
made the Final Four for the first time since 2004. With a
rather young team the future looks bright for the program.
Our newest winter program, ice hockey, is also the
latest program to win a state and NATIONAL title. The
team won their final 8 game against two time defending
champion Ralston Valley 2-1. That win earned the team
a trip to the Frozen Four at the Budweiser Events Center in Loveland. The team then won a state record six
overtime game, 3-2, against Dakota Ridge in a game that
will be talked about for ages. The semi-final win earned
the Bruins a rematch with perennial power Monarch. In
the third overtime Nick Chavez scored the winning goal
and the Bruins had a 3-2 victory, and a STATE TITLE!
The Bruins wento on to win a National title at the USA
National Hockey competition. Congratulations to the
ice hockey program. It was a season to remember.
Moving onto spring sports, the Bruins teams are
finally outside after our two weeks of snow. A few of
the teams have already recorded impressive victories.
Men’s swim defeated Fairview in an early season dual.
Women’s lacrosse is undefeated and ranked number
three. Men’s lacrosse is also undefeated and ranked
number one including a win over #6 Columbine.
Women’s soccer just recorded a big victory for the
team as they knocked off #5 Pine Creek, 2-1. Baseball
also has a big win as they defeated Regis 6-5 in extra
innings. Tennis, golf, and both track teams are also
underway and looking to make noise this spring season.
The athletic department will also be unveiling a new website in the next few weeks. The new site will be user friendly and full of information and capabilities. Men’s lacrosse
and women’s soccer will be using these sites this spring.
As always we also wish to thank our sponsors for supporting Cherry Creek athletics. They include Platinum
member 5280 Oral Surgery and Dental Implants, Silver
member Best Western Plus DTC, Jackson’s Hole, Which
Wich Sandwiches, Eastbay, and Blue Sky Promotions.

Creek Choir
Ahhh…Cinderella what a treat it was; just magical! Make sure you make room on your calendar each year for the Creek musical; they’re truly a delight!
The Choirs are back from tour! Tours are a lot of work for the choir directors, staff, and Cherry
Creek administration (who often give generously of their time to accompany choirs on tour
as chaperones). What a great opportunity for our choir students to experience new places, and
a great way for our choirs go out and represent Creek in other communities. Welcome back,
Choirs!
Upcoming Creek Choir performances:
Hard to believe it’s time to wind down another year. The final performances:
Spring Choir Concert –
Tuesday, May 5, 7:00pm: Statesmen, Choralaires, A Cappella
Wednesday,
May 6, 7:00pm: Union Street Jazz Choir, Troubadours, Girls’ 21, Meistersingers
A Cappellooza –
Thursday, May 21, 7:00pm: A Cappella, Choralaires, Statesmen
Choir Trips:
Cherry Creek High School is well known for being a 2014 Grammy Award recipient, and one
of the many traditions we enjoy are our annual choir trips. Each year our select choirs, Troubadours, Girls’21 and Meistersingers, rotate taking performance-based tours to represent Cherry
Creek High School in the US and abroad. This past January, the Troubadours went to California.
In March, the Meistersingers will be traveling to Chicago (March 18-22), and Girls’ 21 will be
traveling to Budapest and Salzburg (March 25-April 1, 2015).
These performance-based tours are a mixture of performances and sight-seeing. Meistersingers
will be participating in a vocal clinic at Northwestern University and participating in exchanges
with New Trier High School and Evanston Township High School. They will also be attending
concerts of Yo-Yo Ma with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and a concert of the Chicago Symphonietta performing “Carmina Burana”.
Girls’21 will be taking fifty ladies to perform four major concerts, including an exchange concert
with a college choir in Budapest, performing at St. Michael’s cathedral in Budapest and the Mozarteum in Salzburg. They will have the opportunity to visit many attractions while in Budapest
including Heroes’ Square/Millennium Monument, Fisherman’s Bastion, St. Stephen’s Basilica,
Buda Castle, Matthias Church, Hungarian Parliament. In Salzburg they plan to visit the Fortress
Hohensalzburg, Mirabell Gardens, Salzburger Dom, Hallein Salt Mines, Nonnberg Abbey and
the Leopoldskron Castle.
All expenses are paid for by the girls and their families through money earned by a variety of
fundraisers efforts throughout the year including: King Soopers, Masterworks Concert, Annual
Fruit & Nut fundraiser and Valograms.
These trips are a wonderful opportunity for Creek students to see the world and showcase their
amazing talent at the same time. We wish them well!
On The Band Beat
Winter Guard, Percussion Ensemble ready
for State Championships on April 4
When Marching Band season ends in the fall, some students get a bit of a
break. Other plunge right in to a second season of fun, friendship, commitment
and competition. That’s the case with the students who are part of the CCHS
Winter Guard and Percussion Ensemble.
Winter Guard is the indoor version of Color Guard while Percussion Ensemble is
made up of members of the Marching Band Drum Line and Front Ensemble or
Pit (stationary percussion section).
Both groups will compete in their respective State Championships on Saturday,
April 4. The Winter Guard State Championships will be held at the University of
Denver Magness Arena, located 2240 East Buchtell Blvd. in Denver, 80210. Prelims begin at 9 a.m. and Finals begin at 3 p.m. The Percussion Ensemble State
Championships will be held on April 4 at the First Bank Center, located at 11450
Broomfield Lane in Broomfield, 80021. Good luck to the CCHS Winter Guard
and Percussion Ensemble!!
2015 CCHS Marching Band Info Meeting April 29
The award-winning Cherry Creek High School Marching Band will hold an information meeting for current and prospective members and their parents at 7 pm
on Wednesday, April 29, in the Fine Arts Theater.
Join us (and invite incoming eighth-graders and their families) to find out about
the exciting things in store for the 2015 season, including new uniforms, CCHS
football games, the Littleton Western Welcome Week Parade, and competitions,
including the Colorado Marching Band State Championships!
“Being in marching band gives students the opportunity to improve their musicianship, develop their leadership skills, help generate school spirit, and simply
have fun with their friends,” said Band Director Tim Libby. “It’s also an extracurricular activity that is a plus on student resumes and college applications because it demonstrates that students are well-rounded and have the skills to successfully handle multiple activities.”

If you have attended a concert, musical or play at Cherry Creek High School, or
have looked at the art on display in the Fine Arts building this past year, you
know how lucky we are to have such an amazing performing and visual arts
program at our high school. You have also seen the joy of the students who take
part in the vibrant CCHS Fine Arts community!
Participation in performing and fine arts is known to boost the creative and
adaptive skill sets of students. For CCHS, it’s full “STEAM” ahead, as CCHS
continues to put the “A for Arts” into STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering
and Math) as a critical component of strong public education.
As many of you know, in the spring of 2014, Cherry Creek High School won a
Grammy Award for excellence in music education! Also in 2015, 54 CCHS
students were selected for All State Choir. Seven students were chosen for All
State Jazz Choir, eight for All State Band, and seven for All State Orchestra.
Additionally, 7 Orchestra students made it into the Western States Honors
Orchestra Festival. CCHS’s Spring Musical Cinderella was a breathtaking
collaboration of drama, song, dance and technical theater. We hope you had a
chance to see this production of what many kids were calling a “life-changing
experience.”
Among the numerous events that the Fine Arts Department has already brought
to the community this semester are Elephant Man, the Masterworks Concert, and
Jazz on the Green. The spring concerts are rapidly approaching, and a new
musical will, yet again, grace the CCHS stage in March of 2016! Take the
opportunity to enjoy all of the high caliber entertainment right here in our
community!
Friends of the Arts was established by parents decades ago to help support
and maintain a high level of excellence in the Fine Arts Department at Cherry
Creek. Funds donated to Friends of the Arts have helped send students to
competitions, send instructors to participate in ongoing professional growth
opportunities, and support a piano accompanist and orchestra assistant. They
continue to help maintain and upgrade Fine Arts equipment, and have helped
bring in guest conductors from around the world. Please consider making a
donation to the Friends of the Arts at Cherry Creek High School. Friends
of the Arts welcomes and values contributions of any amount—whether it’s 10
people giving $10 each or one person giving $100—it’s your participation that
makes a difference.
Please send donations to:

Creek High School build for our future . . . brick by brick!
