************************************************************************************************************<br />
Dear <strong>Copley</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> families,<br />
Congratulations on the completion of another tremendous school year. As teachers and parents, we continually<br />
look at what we can do better; where improvements need to be made, and how we can progress a step further. We<br />
sometimes do not clearly see the excellence that is demonstrated on a daily basis. Yet, it is clear that we live and<br />
work in an excellent school district and are privileged to work with excellent students. Over the past year at <strong>Copley</strong><br />
<strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong>, I have seen this excellence first hand on a daily basis and am proud to be a part of this district.<br />
As I reflect on the successes and the challenges of the past school year, there is an apparent theme; it’s all about<br />
the people. It is not about one person or one group of people; we are an excellent school because parents,<br />
teachers, staff, and students are all working together for a common goal: providing the best high school experience<br />
for our children. It is due to this collective effort that we have found success over this past year.<br />
As each school year ends and another begins, there is one thing that we can always count on, and that is change.<br />
<strong>Copley</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> will have two individuals retiring at the end of this school year. Many times when you ask adults<br />
to name those people that had the greatest influence in their lives, they typically share the name of a teacher or<br />
coach. Mrs. Good and Ms. Bennett are two educators that have had this positive impact on thousands of students<br />
over their careers. Although they will be retiring at the end of this school year, they will forever be a part of <strong>Copley</strong><br />
<strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> and be held with great admiration and respect in the memories of the countless students and<br />
colleagues that they have influenced over their years in education. We wish them the best of luck in their<br />
retirement.<br />
To our seniors, congratulations on all that you have accomplished over the past thirteen years. You all have left<br />
your mark on <strong>Copley</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong>, and it has left one on you. For this, you can be proud. I have truly enjoyed<br />
working with each of you and look forward to seeing all you will accomplish in the future as you begin this new<br />
journey in your life.<br />
On Sunday, <strong>June</strong> 5 th , CHS held its <strong>11</strong>5 th Commencement ceremony. This was truly a day to celebrate the<br />
accomplishments of our seniors, and the support and appreciation we have for our teachers, staff, parents and<br />
community. At this time, I would like to bring to your attention a couple of corrections to our graduation program.<br />
Imani Scruggs, Alexander Stopar, and Kyle Sutter earned an Honors Diploma. These students should have been<br />
noted within the program.<br />
Finally, it has been a pleasure to work with each of you. We may have worked together through difficult situations or<br />
exciting events, yet the key point is that we worked together. By accomplishing this task, we have made a positive<br />
impact on our children; thank you!<br />
On behalf of everyone at <strong>Copley</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong>, please enjoy the much deserved summer vacation and thank you for<br />
another successful school year. I hope your travels are safe, the weather is warm, and you enjoy your time with<br />
family and friends.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Cameron M. Ryba
I want to thank you for giving me the opportunity to work with you throughout this school year. It has been an honor<br />
and a privilege to be part of such a successful year. Congratulations to all of the students for completing another<br />
year at <strong>Copley</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong>. I thank all of the parents, students, and staff members for your support throughout the<br />
school year. You are the reason that we are able to remain one of the top schools in the area.<br />
I am very proud to say that our students have worked to meet our expectations in and out of the classroom. It has<br />
been amazing to witness our students’ successes throughout the school year. We are fortunate to have such<br />
talented students. Our students’ academic ability, musical talents, theatrical skill, and athletic gifts have been<br />
impressive. As a new assistant principal, I could not be happier; I am very proud. I have enjoyed getting to know<br />
you and look forward to strengthening our relationship and to working next year to continue to increase school and<br />
community pride. Our clubs and athletic teams have been very successful … winning both state and league titles.<br />
I could not be more proud of everyone’s efforts!<br />
I would like to extend a special thanks and congratulations to our seniors. You and your families can be proud of<br />
your journey over the past thirteen years. Continue to strive for excellence; you have been given many talents, so<br />
use them well. I look forward to hearing of your newfound success. Good luck to all of you as you begin your next<br />
stage in life’s journey.<br />
As I begin to prepare for next year, I am excited about continuing the <strong>Copley</strong> Pride, helping to initiate the Suburban<br />
League Leadership Team, and look forward to developing plans to increase student involvement in school activities.<br />
Research has shown that students who are involved in school related organizations often perform better<br />
academically. I hope to help provide new ways for students to become involved in our school community. I feel that<br />
we are fortunate to be part of a top-notch school system and that it is important to help increase the levels of student<br />
involvement. Ideally, I would like to know that each student has the opportunity and desire to participate in an<br />
organization, team, or activity.<br />
As we end the school year, I feel it is important to wish everyone a safe and enjoyable summer. This time of year<br />
provides both staff and students a much-needed break. Enjoy this free time, have fun, try new things, spend time<br />
with your family and friends, but most importantly make good decisions and be safe.<br />
Have a great summer break!<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Rick Gurski<br />

PSAT & PLAN TEST PLANNING FOR SOPHOMORES AND JUNIORS<br />
The Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT)<br />
will be given to tenth and eleventh grade students on October 15 at CHS. Students planning to take the SAT<br />
should take the 20<strong>11</strong> PSAT/NMSQT this October. The PSAT/NMSQT measures verbal and mathematical reasoning<br />
and writing skills, making it an excellent preparation for the SAT. The PSAT/NMSQT will provide students with<br />
personalized feedback on college success skills that will be tested on the SAT.<br />
The PLAN Test will be given to tenth grade students on November 12. The content of the PLAN test is closely<br />
tied to that of the achievement tests in the ACT Assessment, which is broadly used for college entrance and<br />
placement decisions. The curriculum-based tests cover the skills and knowledge that are commonly taught in the<br />
nation’s schools and are judged to be important for success in both high school and college. Tests measure what<br />
students know and what they are able to do with their knowledge.<br />

GRADUATION RECEPTION THANKS<br />
On <strong>June</strong> 5th, <strong>Copley</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> PTSA hosted a reception following<br />
Commencement. Many thanks to all who donated cases of water<br />
and/or cookies. They were much appreciated by all those in attendance.<br />
A special thanks to:<br />
• Our terrific custodial staff for their support during both set-up and clean up.<br />

trays and coolers.<br />
Belinda Check and Sue Gigliottti<br />

Engraved Bricks<br />
The PTSA is currently working to raise funds to purchase a new electronic sign for the high school.<br />
The new sign will allow the school to better communicate with students, parents and the community<br />
regarding academic achievements, sporting events, band and choir concerts, etc.<br />
To reach this goal, we are selling engraved bricks for $100 that will be placed around the base of<br />
the new sign. The bricks are a great way to honor a current CHS student or future student as well<br />
as a recent graduate.<br />
Don't miss out on this chance to leave a lasting tribute at CHS. Please complete the form in this<br />
issue of <strong>Smoke</strong> <strong>Signals</strong> and return it to CHS PTSA, 3807 Ridgewood Road, <strong>Copley</strong>, Ohio 44321.<br />
Checks should be made out to CHS PTSA. If you have any questions, please contact Jodi Vrabec<br />

AFTER PROM NEWS<br />
Cheryl Wells, Chairperson<br />
THANK YOU TO ALL!<br />
Saturday, May 28 th saw the 20<strong>11</strong> CHS After Prom with the high school commons transformed by the theme<br />
“Oh the Places You’ll Go”. It is our hope that our seniors and their guests enjoyed this evening of time with<br />
friends, casino games, inflatables, a senior photo wall, money machine, prizes, air brush tattoos, food, games, a<br />
comedian, and souvenir t-shirt. We hope too that this evening may become a fond memory of their time at<br />
<strong>Copley</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> as they move on to the wonderful places and experiences in the next phase of their lives.<br />
This event is the culmination of a year of fundraising, planning, and finally, implementing. None of this would<br />
be possible without the innumerable hours from our volunteers and the generous donations made by our senior<br />
parents and local businesses. We sincerely thank all of our committee chairs and the LONG list of volunteers.<br />
The full list of volunteers can be found on the PTSA website. I thank each and every one of you. I would be<br />
remiss to not extend a special thank you to those that were with us for the entire year and always ready to help,<br />
sometimes multiple days in a week. Your efforts and time away from your families to create a special evening<br />
for all of our students is truly appreciated.<br />

On behalf of the Music Boosters, I would like to personally thank the out going Board for a great year! Many thanks to<br />
Karen Martin, Sharon Nagy, Lorraine Signore, Alec Works, Laura Geisendorfer, and Cristine Braman. You have left some<br />
really big shoes to fill in the coming year! I would also like to thank the incoming board members and committee chairman<br />
for volunteering to fill the shoes of our predecessors!<br />
The month of May has flown by and here are just a few of the events that our music students and Music Boosters were<br />
involved in:<br />

Musicologist at the Library of Congress. Provided a workshop to the Concert and Symphonic Bands followed by<br />
a Q&A with students; reception provided by the Music Boosters. The Music Department is looking forward to<br />
Maestro Schissel’s future returns and collaborations.<br />
• Band Banquet: A great time was had by all who attended. The Band Council and Senior band members<br />
provided a great evening along with lots of great memories from their fellow students and band directors. The<br />
video presentation was great! Thanks to Nancy Klein, et al in the kitchen for a great meal. The evening ended<br />
with a performance by Nick Martin and The Whalers.<br />
• Year End Choir and Band Concerts: Held on 5/17 & 5/19 respectively. Both concerts were well attended and the<br />
music performances were great!<br />
• <strong>Copley</strong> Township Memorial Day Parade: The <strong>Copley</strong> Marching Indians under the direction of Mr. Foster and Mrs.<br />
Smith participated in this parade and ceremony that honored our fallen veterans and current men and women in<br />

Mirman Biology:<br />
It's been a great first year for me at <strong>Copley</strong>. I am happy to report a lot of growth in all my students.<br />
The Honors Biology class just finished an overview of animal systems with a<br />
frog dissection as the finale. They have really worked hard this year and I am<br />
very proud of them.<br />
My Biological Studies students stepped up to the challenge. They<br />
accomplished many difficult tasks and overcame obstacles over the course of<br />
the year. So many of them have matured to another level...congrats and job<br />
well done! "Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time<br />
we fall."--Confucius<br />
The AP Biology students also have the opportunity to dissect a frog this<br />
year. But more importantly, they have tackled a college course to help them<br />
prepare for their college experience. I commend them for their tremendous<br />
efforts during the course of the year. As Aristotle once said..." We are what<br />
we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act, but a habit."<br />
