Colonial Forge is once again participating in the Scorecard Program for the Governor's Nutrition and Physical Activity Award for the 2009-2010 school year. We are very pleased to announce that CFHS was one of only two high schools in the Commonwealth of Virginia to earn the Gold Award - the highest level of achievement.

We are asking for your assistance as we strive to repeat our Gold Medal status by continuing to help us promote a healthy environment for our students. One easy way everyone can support our efforts in this program is by no longer bringing fast food and sodas in to students during lunch.

Thank you for your cooperation and support during this exciting challenge.

For more information on this program, please go to the “Governor’s Scorecard” tab.

With the flu season upon us and to help with concerns over H1N1, the following video links have been provided by the Virginia Department of Education. Please take a few minutes to review this information.

Happenin' at The Forge

OASIS, the Online Access to Student Information System, is a new tool for improving communication between teachers, parents and students. OASIS provides an online link between teachers’ gradebooks and the school website. Beginning in September, students and parents will now be able to monitor their grades electronically.

All Colonial Forge students will have access to their grades for each assignment that counts toward their class average. This will help our students track their own performance and keep up with their assignments. Teachers will update their gradebooks at least once each week. All students will have a login to SchoolFusion and can access OASIS grade information via their School Fusion login.

Soaring Eagle parents can sign up for a SchoolFusion login that will give them access to their student’s grades along with access to teacher class pages beginning in September. Specific information for SchoolFusion and OASIS registration and use can be found on our website.

For more information, click HERE to view a quick PowerPoint.

Cell phones are not to be on, used or displayed during the school day.
