Voice of the CVHS PTO

President's Message

Dear Carnegie Rhino Families & Faculty,

I hope you all have had a chance to recharge & settle back into the rhythm of school life. We had an excellent first General PTO Meeting on January 19thSome of our Alumni from the Class of 2022 returned to tell us the good, the bad, and the in-between about how prepared they felt as College Freshmen at their various universities after 4 years at Carnegie! 

If you missed it, you can catch it herehttps://youtu.be/HzDYm0kaBaA 

We have a lot of exciting things planned for the Spring Semester. Subscribe to the CVHS PTO Calendar for up-to-date information on PTO Events synced to your personal e-calendar.

We cannot do all we have planned without the continued support of our fellow parents, family & friends of Carnegie Vanguard. Please remember to sign-up through our PTO Membership Toolkit Link. 

Donate your time or dollars to CVHS to help keep our school growing and outpacing all others

Maria C. Calzada

CVHS PTO President
