Making a "Major" Decision

Students enter the college search and selection process with varying degrees of certainty regarding "what will I study in college?" In this presentation, college counseling will focus on some of the best practices as we advise students who are undecided in their college major selection as well as those who are confident in their eventual major selection for their college applications. We will provide tips on what to look for when it comes to a college major and how to select schools that can be the best fit for your son or daughter. Items include:

• What happens if I am truly undecided about my course of study?
• What accreditations should I look for at the collegiate level?
• How does the evaluation process vary based on the student's major selection?
• How do I find information on "experiential learning" opportunities, and why are they so important?
• What factors contribute to successful outcomes, and what should I look for to determine this information?

Once Seesaw is activated for this school year, returning families will use their same account. Access codes and instructions for creating parent Seesaw accounts will be sent home to new ECC parents during the first two weeks of school. Here is a quick introduction to how Seesaw will connect you to your child's learning and classroom!

Middle School and Upper School students are welcome to remain on campus after dismissal. After school policies have been established to enable students to remain on campus after school and participate in athletic team practices/games and other supervised afterschool activities. No student will be allowed to "hang out" on campus unsupervised after dismissal. Students who are not participating in an athletic team practice session are not allowed to be in the gymnasium or fitness center after school. These facilities are fully booked by the athletic teams.

Supervision for Middle School students will begin at 3:00 pm. Supervision for Upper School students begins at 3:30 pm. Following dismissal, all students must be in an extracurricular activity (working with a teacher, attending an after school program, athletic team practice, drama/music rehearsal, etc.) or report to the MS Study Hall which is held in the MS Student Lounge and Design Tech classrooms or to the US Student Lounge for US Study Hall. Teachers staffing study hall this year are Mr. Jannereth and Ms. Polezhaeva.

• There is no charge for students to attend the MS/US After School Study Hall.
• Normal study hall hours are until 6:00 pm every school day.
• All students reporting to MS/US study hall must sign in and sign out.
  • Students will be allowed to sign themselves out of study hall when their ride home arrives or to go to a sports event; parents will not need to come in to sign out their child. Parents should call or text students once they have arrived on campus. Some cell service does not work inside the school building; if you are unable to contact your child directly, parents should call the school (813.920.2288) and the Welcome Center will notify the study hall supervisor to dismiss your child.
  • Once a child is signed out of study hall, he/she will not be allowed to return. Once children are signed out of study hall, they will no longer be supervised by CDS faculty.
• The expectation is for a "quiet" study hall, but the teacher supervising may allow exceptions for groups working together on school projects or assignments.
• Study hall areas must be left as clean as found.
• All school rules/policies apply during study hall hours. Behavior issues will be reported to the parent. Repeated behavior issues will be referred to the Middle School administration.

Questions? Please contact Mr. Jannereth, MS/US After School Study Hall Coordinator.

Flik serves scratch prepared entrees, including a vegetarian option, a daily grill special, chef prepared specialty salads, and deli sandwiches with in-house roasted deli meats.  Breakfast is  available every day beginning at 7:30 a.m. and fresh fruit, yogurt parfaits, assorted snacks and beverages are available for purchase during MS and US snack breaks.

Cash is not accepted in the lunch line. 

Be sure to set up a declining balance account for ALL students!

• Flik uses a no-cash system. ECC, Elementary, Middle School, and Upper School parents can set up and fund a payment account for each child at MySchoolBucks.com for daily purchases made through the cafeteria line. (ECC and elementary lunches ordered on Nutrislice are also paid for using the MySchoolBucks account.) To create accounts, parents must enter their child's name and birthdate. Accounts can be funded three ways:
  • Make a one-time payment
  • Set up autopay
  • Send a check payable to "Flik" to the school office 
  • If a student's account becomes overdrawn, the student will be served a Sunbutter and jelly sandwich for $3.50 which will be deducted from the student's account balance. We recommend that parents set up auto pay on their MySchoolBucks.com account to ensure their children get to have the lunch of their choice.
