City Heights Preparatory Charter School

Hello CHPrep Families,

As we are approaching the end of the school year, we are requesting that all borrowed school technology be returned. This includes any Chromebooks, MiFis, or other devices checked out from the school.

We understand that some students may still need their devices for studying and completing schoolwork. However, we kindly ask that all borrowed technology be returned no later than June 8th.

Thank you for your cooperation and support. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Starting Tuesday, May 26, 2026, students will bring home Summer School notices provided by Ms. Jimenez, the school counselor. Summer school is for current 9th- 11th grade students. It is very important that all letters are signed and returned to Ms. Jimenez by June 1, 2026. Students who bring back the signed letter will need to stay after school on June 1, 2026, from 3:50 PM–4:30 PM. During this time, Ms. Jimenez will help students get placed on the Learn4Life summer school waitlist. City Heights Prep is partnering with Learn4Life for Summer School 2026. Classes will be held in person at:
