Throwback Thursday: 1981 Edition📞

In 1981, it was all about payphones and pocket change.

Do you remember calling collect just to say, “Pick me up!”? 🚗💨

First Steps in the Science Lab!🧪

Mrs. Moore’s 7th grade scientists wasted no time diving into hands-on lab practice last week. While they didn’t quite discover the next big scientific breakthrough 😉, they did sharpen essential skills—measuring, recording data, and cleaning up like pros.

These early lab adventures set the stage for bigger investigations ahead, making sure students are ready to apply the scientific process with confidence. 💫

✨ It’s been an amazing first week back at Chagrin!

📚 Our 7–12 Library Media Specialist, Ms. Sargiovanni, turned study hall into a place to play, create, and connect. Students enjoyed:
🎨 Coloring sheets
📸 Photo ops with a school camera
🎲 Board games
🔍 Scavenger hunts
🤝 And plenty of time to catch up with friends

What a great way to kick off the year—mixing brain breaks with a little fun in the library!

Throwback Thursday: 1997 🐾🧡🖤

Back in 1997 Mortimer made sure all the fans had fun at Harris Stadium!

As our fall sports kick off—football, soccer, volleyball, cross country, golf, tennis, and more—we’re proud to continue that same tradition of teamwork, pride, and Tiger spirit. Best of luck to all of our athletes this season! 🐅✨

What’s your favorite memory of fall sports at Chagrin Falls?

Throwback Thursday takes us back to 1985, when our yearbook photographers caught longtime high school custodian Ray Markuszka in action, raising the flag.

Ray’s spirit and dedication left a lasting mark on Chagrin Schools. Yesterday, we carried on his legacy by presenting our 20-year service award, now named in his honor, to this year’s recipients.

If you remember Ray, we’d love to hear your stories of how he made a difference in your time at Chagrin Falls.
