News You Can Use: October 15, 2021
Dear CCGS Families,
It was a great very short week at CCGS for students! This week we had more of our second grade classes visit Hoover outdoor education program and despite a few sprinkles, they learned and had a blast. This was also the first week of students getting to choose which playground zone they would play at during their lunch recess. We also had picture day on Wednesday, and our students and staff all looked dashing! Many of our students who were remote learners last year stopped me to tell me about how excited they were to have a school picture taken because it had been either "so long" since they had one or they had never had one at all. Each week we look for our rainbows with students, and this week these were my top 3! Thank you to those of you who have already signed up for our after school clubs. The last day to sign up is tomorrow, October 16th at 10:00 a.m. HERE is the form in case you missed my email earlier this week. Parents will be notified by next week which clubs your child has been approved to attend since we are limiting classes to 15 per group.
Each week I will be including a google form to gain feedback from you! Please take some time to complete this! I was already able to share one of the celebrations from last week with the classroom teacher. This is your chance to give a shout out to a staff member or ask general questions.
-
Parent Teacher Conference Sign Up: Please click HERE to sign up for conferences. This year parents will have the option of choosing in person or a virtual conference. Conferences are on November 11th and November 12th. To find your teacher, scroll to the right at the top of the form. You will then choose your time and choose your spot. For help, please contact Mrs. Anderson at tanderson@y115.org.
-
Halloween Parade Information: We will have two reverse parade times on October 29th. Students will be lined up outside and families that are interested in coming will drive by and wave to the students. Next week, I will be sharing the grade levels for each of the designated times and the parade route.
-
Car Rider Reminders: Please have your red or green name showing for pick up time. K-3 parents, please make a right turn only into the rear lot at the end of the day.
-
Red Ribbon Week- Please see the red ribbon week flyer below for the last week of October. We will also be having a reverse Halloween parade on Friday, October 29th where families will drive through and see their student and others in costume in the rear of the school. More information will be coming soon on that!
-
Volunteers- We are looking for volunteers for at home and at school. If interested please email acurran@y115.org with your availability and we will be in touch! Thank you to those that have responded!
Have a great weekend!
Mrs. Hamm

Click on the image above for some helpful tips to practice fine motor skills. We are noticing that many of our students could use more help with handwriting, pencil grips, and cutting. These are fun ways to practice at home! |
