Chagrin Falls - Exempted Village Schools

🌎🐾 This weekend, the Chagrin Falls Alumni Association teamed up with our amazing ChaGreen Environmental Club students for a community clean-up in the Village! Thanks to Jana Young for coordinating CFAA volunteers and to Brittany Laseak for rallying our student helpers. Together, they picked up trash in parking lots and public spaces, making a visible difference and having a great time along the way! The CFAA Earth Day Clean-Up is an annual tradition that brings families, students, and community members together to care for our hometown. Thank you to everyone who helped make this event a success! 💚 🧡🖤 #ChagrinSchools #CFtogether #ChagrinTigers #ChagrinFalls

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. 🧡📖 #ChagrinSchools #CFtogether #ChagrinTigers #ChagrinFalls #PersonalizedLearning

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! #ChagrinSchools #CFtogether #ChagrinTigers #ChagrinFalls

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

We’re celebrating one of our hardworking 6th grade students at Chagrin Falls! After dedicating himself to a challenging personal learning goal and seeing it through, he earned a very special reward, an inspiring conversation with former Ohio State Wide Receiver, Marvin Davies! During their Q&A session, they asked thoughtful questions about school, football, college, and life. What a powerful reminder of what happens when perseverance meets opportunity! This is what personalized learning looks like in action. When students set goals, work hard, and stay committed, the outcomes go far beyond the classroom. #ChagrinSchools #CFtogether #ChagrinTigers #ChagrinFalls

High school health students put their knowledge to the test with an interactive review on mental health disorders…and they had to get moving to do it! QR codes were hidden throughout the building, with riddles leading the way. Each code revealed key info: definitions, symptoms, and treatments of various mental health conditions. 🧠🧩 But here’s the twist: students had to think critically about why the QR code was placed in that specific location. Was it near a counselor’s office—a resource for mental health support? Or perhaps in a calm, quiet corner perfect for a reset? This hands-on review connected classroom learning to real-world resources, empowering students to recognize where and how to seek help. A creative blend of movement, engagement, and meaningful reflection. Nice job Mr. Taddeo!💡💬 #ChagrinSchools #CFtogether #ChagrinTigers #ChagrinFalls

Middle school students made a special visit to the Intermediate School, bringing energy, connection, and mentorship with them! Led by Mr. Kyle Patterson, students teamed up with 4th graders for some friendly basketball and meaningful classroom conversations. 🧡 These visits provided more than just fun, they offered valuable learning opportunities and positive role models for our younger Tigers. On the playground and in the classroom, students built relationships that inspire growth and kindness. We’re proud to see our students lead with heart and make a difference in each other’s experiences. 🐾 #ChagrinSchools #CFtogether #ChagrinTigers #ChagrinFalls #TigerMentors
