Dear Primary School Families,
There are many exciting events happening throughout the fall season here at the Primary School. This Friday, October 8, our PTG will host the Colt Bolt. Please send your child in sneakers as they will get plenty of steps in. Students will walk across the bridge to the high school field, stretch, and take a lap around the high school track for this event during their scheduled class time. Our Colt mascot is ready to cheer on our students, along with many volunteers and staff including our PE teachers, Mr. Vaughan and Mrs. Estatico!
We have some exciting news to share from our PTG. We have already reached 25% of our sales goal for the Book Fair! To celebrate this exciting news, every student will receive a Book Buck, which can be redeemed for prizes at a later date. Be sure to shop our Virtual Scholastic Book Fair before October 10 and help us reach our school-wide goal of selling 700 books. Students will earn additional Book Bucks for each book they purchase during the fair.
Save the date! The Primary School will be holding our Halloween Parade and Class Parties on Monday, October 25. PTG members should contact their homeroom parents or email psptg@cvsd.net if they are interested in volunteering.
Thank you for all of your help and support with car rider drop-off in the mornings. Continue to remain in your car, and encourage students to open the car door on their own from the passenger side of the vehicle. This is for the students' safety. Please do not allow students to exit the vehicle until our staff members are on duty at 8:30 am. Thank you for your cooperation with this matter.
Happy October!

Emily Mather, Academic Principal

Poster Contest
It is time for the 2022 National School Bus Safety Week Poster Contest! This is a great opportunity for students to learn about school bus safety while promoting it to others. Details for entering this fun and educational contest are found at the following link.
From the PTG
The CVPS Colt Bolt is on Friday, October 8. Please follow the links below to volunteer, purchase a sign for your student or give a donation:
Shop our Virtual Scholastic Book Fair now through October 10 and help us reach our school-wide goal of selling 700 books. Each student will earn one Book Buck for each book they purchase during the fair. Every student at the school will also receive a Book Buck each time the school reaches a 25% benchmark towards our overall goal. Book bucks can be redeemed for prizes at a later date.
From the Nurse
Please be sure to review the COVID-19 Updates page on the District website, which includes answers to a list of FAQs.
From the Cafeteria
Our Food Service Department is experiencing supply chain issues with numerous menu items for breakfast and lunch. Some popular items are on backorder with no known restock date at this time. We are adjusting the menus when we are informed of out of stock items and we are giving students other options.
Chartiers Valley School District is offering FREE breakfast and FREE lunch to every student, every school day. More information.
We are also offering an a la carte snack menu this year for students who wish to pack their lunch and buy snacks.

Label Your Items
As a reminder, children are encouraged to bring a water bottle every day. Please put your child’s name on their water bottle, backpack, lunchbox, and anything else that is important to your child. In the event that an item is misplaced, having their name on it makes it easier for us to get that item back to them.
Attendance
If your child is absent from school, please email the PS Attendance Secretary, PSattendance@cvsd.net
