It's been a great Halloween across the district! Here's a few more of our favorite memories as you head out for some trick or treating 🖤🧡🐯 stay safe and warm!









Bello! 🧪💛 Our high school science teachers are brought their minion genius to Halloween this year! #ChagrinSchools #CFtogether #ChagrinTigers #ChagrinFalls 💛🖤
Buoyancy, Balance, and a Bit of Chagrin Innovation! 🌊⚙️
Mrs. Anderson challenged her 9th grade physical science students to achieve neutral buoyancy with custom, 3D-printed scuba divers. 💧Mr. Volk printed each diver in the Innovation Center with a unique weight distribution, so no two were alike. Using hot glue and their knowledge of forces, students experimented with items like beads, hardware, popsicle sticks, and balloons to adjust the net force and achieve neutral buoyancy.
To kick off the lesson, Dr. Penczarski, a certified scuba diver with more than 500 dives, shared insights about buoyancy and equilibrium from her underwater experiences. How do you float above a reef without touching it?
Thoughtful teaching and curious minds came together in this lesson, a reminder that learning can be both meaningful and authentic.

What a great way to kick off the year—mixing brain breaks with a little fun in the library!

Throwback Thursday takes us back to 1985, when our yearbook photographers caught longtime high school custodian Ray Markuszka in action, raising the flag.
Ray’s spirit and dedication left a lasting mark on Chagrin Schools. Yesterday, we carried on his legacy by presenting our 20-year service award, now named in his honor, to this year’s recipients.
If you remember Ray, we’d love to hear your stories of how he made a difference in your time at Chagrin Falls.
