Churchill Calendar

A wide, horizontal banner with a warm, autumn-themed design. The background is a soft, blurry image of orange and brown foliage. The word "September" is written in a stylized, white and orange font with a subtle drop shadow, centered in the middle of the banner. The banner is decorated with white, line-drawn outlines of various leaves, including maple leaves, scattered around the text. The overall color palette is a cohesive mix of oranges and browns, evoking a feeling of fall.

Schedule Corrections

Monday, September 15, is the last day to request a schedule correction.

Schedule changes will only be made for the following reasons:
  • You don't have the necessary classes to graduate.
  • You have an open period and need a full schedule.
  • You have a duplicate or a missing class.

If your request meets these criteria, please submit the Schedule Correction Request Form ‘25–‘26 Semester 1 using your 4J Google account. Counselors will respond to your requests via your school email.

Please submit the form only once, and continue to attend your currently scheduled classes until further notice. The form will close on September 15 at 4:00 p.m.

From the College and Career Center

I wanted to give you a heads up that I will be on leave until Monday, Sept. 22nd. I'm sorry that I will miss the beginning of school, but I do want you to know I've put some things in place in the College & Career area so you and your students can access some of the area's self-service features.

Here are the links to C&CRvid.1 and C&CRvid.2. That will show you how to use the self-service features in my absence.

UPDATED WEBSITE!
This website is the merger of the CHS College Readiness website and the CHS School-to-Career website. I'm hoping it is more streamlined and simpler to use. It's great on the computer and OK on a cell phone.

Final Note: I emailed all seniors and their families with similar information. There is a very small minority of seniors who may be doing early action/early decision in mid-October. I will be back at Churchill before any of those deadlines roll around. If they're really at their wits' end, they can contact their counselor.

I am looking forward to returning and working with you on Xello and supporting you in the classroom - especially with the new Higher Ed & Career Path course.

See you in (late) September

School-Based Health Center at Churchill

Having difficulty scheduling a sports physical for the Fall? Call the Churchill Health Center, sponsored by PeaceHealth.

A flyer for the School-Based Health Center. The top of the flyer features a photo of a diverse group of teenagers standing in front of a colorful graffiti wall. The main title is "SCHOOL-BASED HEALTH CENTER," with a subheading that says, "Call to schedule an appointment! Same-day appointments for physicals and illness care are usually available." The flyer lists two locations: the "NORTH EUGENE HEALTH CENTER" and the "CHURCHILL HEALTH CENTER," along with their respective addresses, phone numbers, fax numbers, and hours of operation. Under a "SERVICES INCLUDE" heading, a bulleted list details the types of care offered, such as School/Sports/Camp Physicals, Immunizations, Sick visits, Reproductive health care, Mental health assessments, and more. At the bottom of the flyer are the logos for the Eugene School District, PeaceHealth, and Lane County Behavioral Health.
Un folleto del Centro de Salud Basado en la Escuela. En la parte superior del folleto, hay una foto de un grupo de adolescentes de diversas etnias de pie frente a una pared con grafitis de colores. El título principal es "Centro de Salud Basado en la Escuela," y un subtítulo dice, "¡Llámenos ¡Haga una cita! Citas el mismo día para exámenes de bienestar y enfermedad generalmente están disponibles!" El folleto lista dos ubicaciones: el "North Eugene Centro de Salud" y el "Churchill Centro de Salud," junto con sus respectivas direcciones, números de teléfono, números de fax y horarios de atención. Bajo el encabezado "Los servicios incluyen," hay una lista de los tipos de atención médica que se ofrecen, como Evaluaciones y visitas de salud mental, Vacunas, Pruebas de laboratorio y más. En la parte inferior del folleto, se encuentran los logotipos del Distrito Escolar de Eugene, PeaceHealth y Lane County Behavioral Health.
A research study flyer from the Oregon Sleep Lab. The top has a logo for the University of Oregon, the text "Oregon Sleep Lab," and a QR code.

The text reads: "Are you in high school? Participate in a research study on sleep, emotion, and stress at the University of Oregon. Participants receive up to $775 and a picture of their brain."

Below the text is a photo of a young person with their eyes closed, smiling peacefully while sleeping in bed.

The bottom of the flyer describes the study: "The High School Study involves a mental health interview and tracking your sleep for 1-3 weeks by wearing a device on your wrist and a device when you sleep. You will also complete online surveys about your sleep, activities, emotions, and alcohol use. Participation includes 2 or 3 lab visits to Oregon Sleep Lab to complete research activities including an MRI scan. For more information, visit our website: **sleepstudy.uoregon.edu/high-school-study**. Or to find out if you're eligible, scan the QR-code and take our 5-minute prescreen survey."
