The Cuyahoga Heights Board of Education is proud to announce the hiring of Mr. Thomas E. Evans (Class of ’77) as the next superintendent of the Cuyahoga Heights Schools, effective August 1, 2015. Simply put, Mr. Evans is the most appropriate choice for this position to effectively lead the Cuyahoga Heights Schools into the future for years to come. His professional acumen, strong ties to the community and the respect he has among the leadership, staff and students demonstrate stability and the potential for our schools to reach new heights.

Mr. Evans brings to this position more than 33 years of educational experience. In that time, he has fulfilled virtually every educational role, including that of classroom teacher, head varsity coach, assistant varsity coach, assistant principal and principal. He maintains as a goal the advancement of each and every student with whom he encounters. And, he is the first graduating alumni of the district to become superintendent.

Over the next few months, Mr. Evans has the unique opportunity to work alongside Mr. Bergant, as he prepares to take on this new role next summer. Congratulations to Mr. Thomas E. Evans on being named our next superintendent! 

Taking the PSAT is typically one of the best ways to prepare for the SAT college entrance exam. Taking the PSAT may also be beneficial to younger students who want to get a head start on improving academic skills needed for college success and beyond.  The PSAT/NMSQT was offered to all high school students on October 15, 2014 and forty-seven students participated in this test. Freshmen, sophomore, and junior students who took the test had their results explained to them this week.

Here's how they can make the most of their scores:

• Encourage your students to sign in to My College QuickStart™ with the access code provided on their score reports. With this free online tool, students can get an interactive score report and a personalized SAT® study plan.
   
• Explore college majors and careers that are suggested utilizing the score results and learn about the colleges and universities that provide those majors.
   
• Read explanations to better understand why they scored the way they did; as well as access a free SAT practice test.

In addition, the CHS Guidance webpage provides the 2014-2015 guides to Ohio’s Public and Private Colleges and Universities. These links, as well as additional information, assist students in discovering which college may be the right one for them!
