Senior Grad Night Trip to Disneyland
For students paying in installments for the June 13th Grad Night Trip to Disneyland, the second installment of $50 is due no later than Friday, February 3. Parent volunteers will be on campus during lunch in the front lobby February 1, 2 and 3 to collect payments and answer any questions.

Still want to go but haven’t paid yet?
Due to high demand, the Grad Night Committee has reserved a fifth bus. The total cost of the trip is $150. Interested students who have not signed up yet should complete the application and waiver, and pay the first two installments ($100) no later than February 3. The last installment of $50 is due March 9.

All late applicants will be placed on a waitlist until we receive enough students to secure the fifth bus. Need-based scholarships may still be available. Students applying for scholarships are encouraged to turn in a application and waiver with the $20 minimum deposit. Scholarships for late students will be determined once all requests have been received.

CKM Prospector now on-line
The CKM student newspaper, the Prospector, is now available on-line. Or in it’s words, “From the very day that C. K. McClatchy High School opened its halls in 1937, it has had a school paper. Throughout the decades, its form and function has changed. Now, the Prospector has finally entered the 21st century with a website.”

Visit www.ckmprospector.com for the latest in student-written and student-edited news and opinion.
New Athletic Form: Concussion Information Sheet

The law does not apply to PE classes. This form has been added to the Quick Links page.

PTSA TOPICS OF INTEREST

Freeport Boulevard Bike Lane Update

The City of Sacramento is working on a plan to calm traffic and add bike lanes along Freeport Boulevard between Sutterville and 4th Avenue. Approaching this task has not been without conflict, especially considering the diverse interests of business owners, residents, local commuters, and the students and parents of CKM, Cal Middle and City College.

While the repaving and restriping activities are slated for 2013, the city started getting public input last fall. They convened a stakeholder group representing the various interests. CKM’s Bike Club and PTSA were part of this group. City reps also met with neighborhood groups in Land Park and Curtis Park, and held a public meeting at CKM last December.

Now the city is ready for the next phase – preparing the Environmental Impact Report (EIR), which involves getting more stakeholder input on the bike lane project alternatives. To learn more about this, attend the Scoping Meeting on January 25, 6:00 PM in the CKM Cafeteria. Written comments must be submitted to the city no later than February 13, 2012 at 5:00 PM.
