About the CGUHS Leadership Team

Casa Grande, Arizona
The CGUHS Leadership Team is comprised of parents, classified and certified staff, an administrator, and a student. We were brought together to take a look at the varied reasons our school is not functioning to our full potential as measured by the Arizona Department of Education's Standards and Rubrics for School Improvement. We see our role as the conduit between the ADE and our school community to facilitate the development, implementation, and monitoring of our plans for improvement. We are in the process of developing a collaborative nature within our school community so our efforts can begin to flow and help us make the suggested adjustments to benefit our student population.

Meaningful Community Involvement...

Community involvement seems to lessen through the high school years in our observations, but it doesn't have to remain our reality at Casa Grande Union High School. The future of our students impacts us all; therefore we would like to reshape our view of community involvement at the high school level as a partnership in preparing our young people for their future.

The CGUHS School Improvement plan incorporates three goals that are aimed at improving student success. These goals are designed to be modified annually at a minimum as we intend to meet our goals and build on our successes. Two of the goals are very specific to academic growth as measured my the AIMS (Arizona Instrument to Measure Standards). The third goal is specifically about increasing community involvement. We hope through seeking input from parents across a variety of methods we will be able to provide parents with meaningful opportunities to participate and have their voices heard. We will have survey opportunities, quarterly meetings, information in the newspaper, as well as a soon to be renovated website for CGUHS. We are hoping throughout this process parents will share with us things they would like to see happening to help us create the optimal high school environment.

Please share ideas for ways you would like to see community involvement take shape at Casa Grande Union High School. Responses to this blog are open for the public to view and responses will be provided through the site leadership team. We look forward to your input!
