All campus groups, organizations, clubs, teams, and departments are invited to march/walk/ride in the parade. Imagine your department creating and riding on a float of some sort while tossing candy to the adoring masses.


Parade watchers are encouraged to pick up their folding chairs and follow the end of the parade into the stadium for the pep rally. The stands are not big enough to hold everyone, so people will set up their chairs all along the track around the field, and the pep rally will play to the whole stadium, not just one side.

Welcome to the 2017-18 School Year at Cedar Ridge!

Welcome back, Raiders!! The Cedar Ridge staff and I are so excited about the 2017-18 school year ahead! We anticipate great thing for our students and staff. The district just switched all campuses to a new website template, so be aware that our website is “under construction.” Our webmaster is working feverishly to get everything up and running.

The first day of class for students will be Tuesday, August 22. Students will find their alpha room assignment to pick up their schedule posted in the cafeteria. We will have many staff members available to assist students in finding their assigned room. Once all logistics have been taken care of in the alpha assigned rooms, students will move to their first period class. The rest of the day will be regular A-Day for students. The school day has been extended by 5 minutes, per district policy. Therefore, the school day for all district high schools will start at 9:05 am and end at 4:20 pm. You can access the Cedar Ridge A/B Yearly Calendar and the Cedar Ridge Bell Schedule by clicking on the words. We encourage your child to take a picture of their schedule, so they will have it even if they misplace the paper copy.

The only students who will be allowed to see the counselors for a schedule change the first week of school are students whose schedules have one of the following- 1. a missing class for a specific period, 2. the same course scheduled twice, or 3. a mistake on the schedule. Our master schedule and teaching assignments for the 2017-18 school year were made based upon the classes students requested at the end of the 2016-17 school year. All students and parents met with their counselor to discuss schedule requests for the following year, and a Course Verification Sheet was sent home in the Spring as a last check to be sure the classes a student had requested were still the ones they wanted. Therefore, we will not be changing students’ classes unless there is a mistake or a problem with the schedule.

Please be aware that the counselors will be busy the first week enrolling new students and getting new students’ schedules created, so they will have limited availability for other things.

Mark your calendars for the Cedar Ridge Meet-the-Teacher Night, Monday, September 11. You will receive more details as we get nearer to the date.

I want to encourage everyone to communicate with a teacher directly if you have concerns about a class or your child’s progress in the class. You may email or call any of our teachers. Since several of our teachers rotate to different rooms to teach, it is most effective to email your questions, concerns, or request for a meeting. If after you have met or talked with a teacher, you still have concerns, then the next step would be to contact your child’s assistant principal or counselor for assistance. We know the best way to serve your child is by building a partnership between Cedar Ridge staff and parents, so please don’t hesitate contacting us. You can access the campus grading policy, Academic Integrity Policy, the RRISD Student/Parent Handbook, and Student Code of Conduct by clicking on the words in blue. You will find the RRISD policies, which the campus follows. Of particular interest would be the district Dress Code and Cell Phone/Personal Device guidelines.


We are thrilled to see the Cedar Ridge Fine Arts Auditorium almost completed. We anticipate it being “open for business” by early October. It will be a true learning space, as technical theater students will get “on the job training.” We look forward to many wonderful performances by Cedar Ridge students in the future. We also look forward performances by our Cedar Ridge feeder pattern elementary and middle school students!

The district has finally started work on the new Cedar RidgeAthletic Locker Room Facility.  (Floor Plan) Although there were a few disappointing setbacks we are so excited to see construction getting under way. The facility will be located within our Portable “village.” The latest update I was given projects the building to be completed by early November. We are staying positive and optimistic!

I look forward to sharing lots of wonderful things our students and staff are accomplishing throughout the year. I frequently post pictures, celebrations, and news related to Cedar Ridge High School on the school's Twitter account. Please follow us at @CedarRidgeHigh .
Please help support our campus by joining the Cedar Ridge PTSA. They provide excellent support for our campus. Their big project this year is to put in as many “Water Stations” as they can through fundraising and increasing membership. I know students and staff would greatly benefit from the water stations, so help PTSA provide those for the campus by joining the organization. Another important organization that needs all of our support is the Cedar Ridge Project Grad. We are encouraging everyone to get involved and support Project Grad, regardless of what grade your child is in. Project Grad will be held at Main Event this year and we expect a big crowd! Please donate or volunteer for Project Grad 2018! You can find links to both organizations on the Cedar Ridge Website. 

We are celebrating our TEA Accountability rating.  We are so proud of our Science team for earning a Distinction Designation from the state this year! Please review our Accountability Summary. 

You can review the revised meal prices by RRISD's Food Services here. You can also access the application for Free and Reduced Lunches.

Again, welcome to the new school year! We commit to making this a great year for your child(ren)!

Valedictorian and Salutatorian for Cedar Ridge Graduation 2017! Also, Qualifiers for Next Year's National Merit Program!




I'm so proud to introduce this year's Valedictorian, Arvind Raghavan, and Salutatorian, Marissa Maxim. Arvind will be attending UT Austin for Computer Science and Marissa will be attending A & M University for Political Science.

We have so many outstanding and competitive students in this year's senior class; ending up as 1st and 2nd is truly an outstanding accomplishment! Congratulations, Arvind and Marissa!

_______________________________________________________________________________

This year 12 Cedar Ridge High School juniors qualified for next year's National Merit Program. We hope all of them make it to the finalist status, but just qualifying is a huge accomplishment. The National Merit Scholarship Program uses students' PSAT test scores as the qualifying test. From approximately 1.5 million program entrants, each of these students is among the 50,000 highest scoring participants who will be recognized in the fall.

From the 50,000 high scorers nationwide, about 16,000 will be named National Merit Program Semi-finalists next September, representing the top scores in each state, and approximately 34,000 will be commended for their performance. Semifinalist will be the only students in the running to compete for about 7,4000 National Merit Scholarships offered in the Spring of 2018.

So, as you can see, these students performance has been outstanding. These students are all dedicated to success, not afraid to work hard and they believe in putting forth 100% effort. But those attributes alone did not create these results, those characteristics were accompanied by lots of love, encouragement, and support (plus perhaps occasional nudging) from parents, family, and teachers. Congratulations to each of you! We are incredibly proud of you all!


The students receiving recognition for qualifying for the 2018 National Merit Scholarship Program are (alphabetically):

Peng-Yu Ang
Mikayla Catazaro
Alyssa Chamseddine
Bryn Dalrymple
Grant DeLoach
Gabriela Franco
Jameson Kampfe
Connor Scott
Christine Tsou
Parvathy Vasudev
Hannah Villarreal
Michelle Yi

CRHS Computer Science Students Accept Paid Summer Internships at Austin Research Laboratories

Computer science students, Matthew Pabst and Arvind Raghavan, have accepted paid summer internships at Austin Research Laboratories through the University of Texas at Austin. This apprenticeship exposes students to laboratory research and development and exposes them to what scientists and engineers do. They will work on projects over the summer and gain invaluable experiences and opportunities to learn more about different types of research done at ARL. Both students will be studying computer science at UT in the fall.​​

CRHS Swimmers End Season on High Note!

After a season of daily 6:30 – 8:00 a.m. practices, their sacrifice and commitment were rewarded!

At our District Meet January 27th, the team had over 92% season best times; most of those times were personal records. Several of those time drops were well over a second, which in swimming is significant.

Junior Nick Nerhood qualified individually for Regionals finishing 4th in the 500 Freestyle and 6th in the 100 Backstroke. Senior Caleb Randall qualified finishing 5th in the 100 Breaststroke. All 6 Relays qualified for Regionals as well.

At Regionals this past weekend, almost every performance was better than at our District Meet. All swims qualified for the consolation finals on Saturday, which was a team goal we set for the meet.

Nick finished 12th in the 500 Freestyle and 16th in the 100 Backstroke. Caleb missed the school record by 0.03 seconds finishing 14th in the 100 Breaststroke.
Our Girls Medley Relay of Morgan Hall (11), Maddy Moates (11), Brie Harris (11), and Ariana Bose (9) was a second faster that at Districts.

Our Boys Medley Relay of Nick Nerhood (11), Caleb Randall (12), Zach Rousset (12), and Zach Finch (11) was 3 seconds faster than they were at Districts.

Our Girls 200 Freestyle Relay of Brie Harris, Maddy Moates, Sevana Allen (11), and Ariana Bose was 2 seconds faster than at Districts.

Our Boys 200 Freestyle Relay of Kevin Mashayekhi (12), Zach Finch, Mason Moreno (11), and Caleb Randall was 1 second faster than at Districts.

Our Girls 400 Freestyle Relay of Morgan Hall, Brie Harris, Sevana Allen, and Ariana Bose was 9 seconds faster than at Districts.

Our Boys 400 Freestyle Relay of Kevin Mashayekhi, Zach Finch, Zach Rousset, and Nick Nerhood was 5 seconds faster than at Districts.

We also wanted to mention those students that traveled as relay alternates but did not get to compete. Their work ethic and attitude helped create a culture change in our program that allowed us to perform the way we did this season. They are Seriana Langenohl (11), Vanessa Sachs (11), Ana Lecomte (10), Chandley Stohrer (10), and Sami Guzman (9).
