Cathedral Catholic High School is partnering with digital health company emocha to monitor students and faculty members for symptoms of COVID-19 as part of our return-to-learn program. emocha will enroll users in a self-screening mobile app that will ask them to complete a daily check in by taking their temperature, report if they are experiencing any symptoms, and state if they have had exposure to COVID-19. We will launch this program within the next week, on September 8th and 9th, for staff and students.
All participants receive a color-coded digital badge through the mobile app to indicate their check-in status, and ensure each person entering campus is safe and healthy. We will be providing additional information to the entire community on what is required.
We are excited about the chance to bring our community back to campus safely, and ask for your cooperation as we implement these safety measures.
Parents will receive a text message from emocha. Please enroll for your student with their name. The tech office will push out the app to each student's iPad. Students can also download the app to their phone.

Parking Permits
Parking stickers can be purchased online. Start Smart will not be required to obtain a parking permit for this school year. Parking enforcement will start on Tuesday, September 8th.
PowerSchool Attendance Tracking
Did you know that you can get push notifications about your student's attendance through the PowerSchool mobile app? The Powerschool mobile app, which can be used by both students and parents, can give you real-time notifications that will show if a student is marked absent or tardy from a class. Go to the App Store on your Apple device or Google Play on your Android device and search for the Powerschool app. Then, enter the Cathedral Catholic High School District code (searchable from app), followed by your login information. This is a great way to stay up to date with your student's attendance!
Attendance: Students are required to attend every class when school is in session. If a student is absent to a class, the parent must call within 48 hours the Attendance Office at 858-523-4001 and press 2 to report the absence or tardy. Only a parent/legal guardian listed in the school’s official SIS (PowerSchool) may phone the Attendance Office to verify an absence/tardy.
Dress Code: Students are expected to be in dress code, including wearing a CCHS approved shirt and proper grooming, during Dons Online.
