Dear Raptors,
As we reach the middle of the trimester, I want to take a moment to celebrate our achievements and share some important updates.
First, let’s give a huge round of applause to Dayami Ramos Rosales, who has been named Raptor of the Month by our teachers! Dayami’s perseverance and dedication have truly set her apart as a shining example of what it means to be a Raptor. Congratulations, Dayami—you inspire us all!
I am also thrilled to announce that Cedars International Next Generation High School has been officially recognized by the New Tech Network (NTN) as an NTN Spotlight School! This prestigious recognition reflects our commitment to 21st-century learning, innovation, and excellence. Thank you to our incredible students, staff, and families for making this achievement possible.
As a reminder, Winter Break begins this Thursday, December 19. Students will be released early at 1:30 PM, and the holiday break will run from December 20 through January 6. Classes will resume on Tuesday, January 7. Please enjoy this well-deserved time off to relax, recharge, and spend time with loved ones.
Thank you for making this trimester so successful so far, and I look forward to all that we will accomplish together in the coming weeks. Have a joyful and restful holiday season, Raptors!
With Raptor pride,
Steven Zipkes
Principal, Cedars International Next Generation High School
