Dear Primary School Families,
Welcome to the end of March! We have a two day school week March 29 and March 30 before our CVPS community is on Spring Recess through April 5. We wanted to take this time to wish everyone a very relaxing and enjoyable Spring Recess, and we are looking forward to resuming instruction on April 6. It is hard to believe that there are only two months of school left.
Please note that our school board voted this past week to revise the district calendar. The last day of instruction for students in first and second grade will be Friday, May 28. The final day for Kindergarten students will be Tuesday, May 25. More information about the end of the year events will be released soon.
Thank you for participating in Pennsylvania's Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Day on Friday, March 26. Please be sure to send completed leaves back to the Primary School so we can compile them for our Tree of Strength project related to SEL Day.
As we near the end of the year, we wanted to remind families that enrollment for incoming Kindergarten students for the 2021-2022 school year is now open. Any child who turns 5 prior to September 1, 2021 can enroll in Kindergarten. Information can be found on the district website. Please share this information with any relatives, neighbors, or others that this may apply to. We encourage early registration!
As the weather improves, our students take part in numerous activities around campus daily. Please refrain from lining up at the side door for car rider dismissal until 3:00 PM in order to keep our activity zones clear from foot traffic. We ask that you stay in your car until this 3:00 PM timeframe to support our ongoing outdoor lessons and activities. Thank you!
Remember, it is a GREAT day to be a Colt!

Screenings
Our typical screening timeline for weight, height, vision, and hearing will be pushed back to a later time. Our department wants to ensure that screenings are performed in the safest way possible. If you have specific concerns about your child, please reach out to your building’s School Nurse.
Flu
Flu vaccines will be highly recommended this cold and flu season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Per the CDC, influenza vaccination will be paramount to reduce the impact of respirator illness in the population. Please contact your child’s health care provider for information on where to get a flu shot.
Our department is working hard to keep our students and staff healthy and safe. Please do not hesitate to reach out to your building School Nurse with any questions or concerns!
