Shoutout to Julia in Mrs. Peloszy’s class for taking charge of her learning and creating something amazing!
As part of her personalized learning path, Julia spent over two months working on an independent project planning a dream vacation for her family to Hawaii, Costa Rica, and Australia.
Through her work, she sharpened skills in multiplication, hyperlinking, researching travel platforms, and had fun exploring her favorite tech tool: GIFs!
Julia’s project is a shining example of how personalized learning empowers students to dive deep into their interests while building real-world academic and digital skills.
Way to go, Julia! You’ve inspired us all. Safe travels! ✈️🌺👏

The Class of 2029 took to the field last week for the annual Kick-it for Cancer game, a beloved tradition with a powerful purpose. Founded in 2009 by Quinn Clarke, this student-led kickball event raises funds for pediatric cancer research.
This year, our 8th grade homerooms brought their A-game and raised nearly $6,000 for the cause! Congratulations to Mrs. Mrofchak’s homeroom for taking home the top prize! 👏
Thank you to everyone who played and donated, and cheered. You continue to show what it means to be #CFtogether.

Gurney Elementary recently rolled out the welcome mat for six visiting educators from Tallmadge Elementary School! The day was packed with vibrant classroom visits and inspiring professional learning as the Tallmadge team explored Gurney’s innovative approach to personalized learning.
The spotlight was on student empowerment, seeing firsthand how Gurney students are encouraged to learn at their own pace in environments tailored to support individual growth.
This exciting partnership took root in late 2023, when Personalized Learning & EdTech Specialist Jake Miller connected the two schools as part of a shared journey to bring personalized learning to life.
From idea-sharing to in-class observations, the day was filled with meaningful dialogue, fresh perspectives, and the kind of collaborative spirit that fuels innovation. A true celebration of what’s possible when passionate educators come together with a common goal. 🧡📖

Celebrating the queens who rock the diamond fields 💎🥎🐯 #GoTigers #ChagrinSoftball #TBT
Our 4th graders had a rock-solid day at the Natural History Museum! From fossilized teeth to arrowheads, they explored artifacts that told the story of Ohio’s past.
As part of a hands-on, inquiry-based program, students worked together to uncover the stories of the Indigenous Peoples who lived in Ohio long before 1650. With real and replica artifacts in hand, they compared tools, solved mysteries, and brought history to life.
The adventure didn’t stop there! From playful otters to soaring eagles, the outdoor exhibits were a favorite highlight and the perfect way to end a day full of discovery. 🦦🦅
If you haven’t visited the Natural History Museum lately, go check it out, our students gave it rave reviews and couldn’t wait to explore more!

Guidance in Action at Gurney! 🧡🐯🖤 Mrs. Schluep’s Guidance students teamed up with Mr. Dale Tschappat for a powerful lesson of peer leadership at Gurney Elementary. 🙌 Our 5th grade boys stepped up to assist in a Guidance lesson, building connections and modeling positive behavior. Meanwhile, the 4th grade Kindness Crew took the lead in their own session, spreading messages of empathy, encouragement, and inclusion across the school. We love seeing our students grow as leaders and give back to younger Tigers. This is what #CFtogether is all about! #ChagrinSchools #ChagrinTigers #ChagrinFalls
