Staff Appreciation Breakfast – Thank you!
A sincere thank you to those parents who contributed items for the Staff Appreciation Breakfast. It was such a delicious meal and a wonderful way to start our week!
Winter Has Arrived
With the colder, wetter weather on the way, please make sure your child comes to school dressed for outdoor PE and recess. For our younger students, it’s a good idea to pack an extra pair of pants and socks—just in case!
Students Arriving Late to School
Since returning from the break, we’ve noticed an increase in the number of students arriving late to school. We understand that settling back into routines can be challenging for both students and families. However, arriving on time is very important—it helps ensure a smooth, calm, and successful start to the day for everyone.
Cutlery Reminder
If needed, please send cutlery with your child to eat their snack/lunch with. The school cannot provide it for them.
Traffic Safety Reminders
As we return from the break we have noticed an increase in traffic safety concerns around the school. We kindly remind parents and guardians to respect the signage on posted signs, and model safe behavior for students by using the crosswalks. Of particular concern is parents parking and stopping in front of the school to drop off their children. This can be very problematic as it prevents a smooth flow of traffic, including buses, on a very busy street. We encourage families to use the North Side Drop-In Zone for safe and convenient drop-offs. Please ensure your stop does not exceed 10 minutes.
School Conferences
We look forward to welcoming families to the school for our first session of school conferences. Conferences will be 15 minutes in duration and you are welcome to bring your child to be part of the conversation with the teacher. Please book your School Conferences through your MyCBE account.
