A letter from Principal Johnstone
Dear Clairemont students and families:
It is our goal at Clairemont High School to build a community of high achievement that is worthy of the students and families we are so privileged to serve. We believe by developing policies centered around our mission statement and core values, we will help our students develop into critical thinkers, collaborative communicators, creators, innovators, and contributing citizens. Most importantly, we seek to partner with families to help our students mature into men and women of great character and integrity.
The parent's section of the website is provided so that you can be a part of the Chieftain family, support your student, and understand the policies and procedures we employ to help us achieve our goals. The Handbook guides the work we do to help us provide the best possible education for our students. Please read through this handbook and familiarize yourself with the information contained within as it explains procedures and practices for academics, student behavior, communication with faculty, staff, and administration, and much more. Clairemont High School reserves the right to change or amend this handbook at any time throughout the school year. Another essential tool for parents is access to PowerSchool Parent Portal, which not only allows you to access your students' grades and attendance, but also update important information like cell phone numbers, email addresses, emergency contacts, etc.
I sincerely hope that every student’s time here at CHS is not only memorable, but also helps them to become the greatest version of themselves. I encourage students and families to share with me any suggestions and ideas that might assist our efforts to provide students with the best education possible. On behalf of the staff here at CHS, welcome to Clairemont and I wish you a wonderful school year!
Sincerely,
Karly Johnstone
Clairemont High School Principal
