Dear Primary School Families,
As we move into this final month of the school year, we have many exciting and engaging activities planned for students.
Second Grade Spring Concerts
Spring Concert Season is almost here and we are excited to celebrate the musical accomplishments of our second-grade students! Second-grade families are invited to attend based on the following schedule. All concerts begin at 2:15 pm in the Primary School gymnasium.
Performance by rooms 309, 312, 320, 321, 352, 354 - Thursday, May 12
Performance by rooms 310, 311, 323, 324, 325, 351- Friday, May 13
Library - Final Checkout
This library rotation will be the last time students check out books for the year. Mrs. Forkenr will send notices within the next two weeks about overdue books. She suggests waiting until the last week of school to pay the $10 for any missing books, as many resurface as students are cleaning out desks and lockers. Please feel free to email her with any questions at rforkner@cvsd.net.
Fun Day
The CVPS PTG is very excited to have Fun Day in person again this year after a couple of years off. Fun Day will be on Tuesday, May 24. What is Fun Day?! It is exactly that – a day of fun for all of CVPS! We celebrate the end of the 2021-2022 CVPS school year – and what a year it has been! There will be inflatables, carnival games, outdoor games, bingo, glow dance party, BMX Assembly, crafts, and much more.
For the PTG to make Fun Day run smoothly and be successful, we need A LOT of volunteers! How can you volunteer? Sign-up here: https://bit.ly/3KGZb9T. (Note: you must be a PTG member to volunteer or contact psptg@cvsd.net before signing up if you are not!) We are also still in need of some supplies due to some being lost, ruined, etc during the pandemic. Please feel free to purchase from our Amazon Wish List (https://amzn.to/3OWLcQy) or drop off freeze pops, bubbles, chalk, or glow necklaces/bracelets at the CVPS main office or email psptg@cvsd.net for an evening drop off.
Second Grade Move-Up Day/Send-Off
The 2nd Grade Move-Up Day/Send-Off scheduled for May 23 is an internal-only event. Students will go to the Intermediate School with their class in the morning and have a tour of the building, meet with a 3rd-grade teacher, and have a presentation from the Intermediate School principals. Following lunch and recess, there will be an internal event where students will have a party that the PTG sponsors. The PTG is gathering a small number of parent volunteers for this event. In recent years, this event could not occur due to COVID restrictions with large groups of students, and the drive-thru event was organized as an alternate activity. We are excited for our students to return to the in-person send-off celebration this year!
The Intermediate School will have an orientation/building tour in August. Information about that will be issued by the Intermediate School closer to that date.
iPad Turn In
Beginning May 16, iPads will remain at the Primary School as we begin to collect electronics in preparation for summer updates. Please note, your child will not bring the device home past this date for the remainder of the school year.
Kindergarten Registration for Fall 2022
Kindergarten registration for Fall 2022 is now open. All school-aged children residing within the Chartiers Valley School District, including students who attend private, parochial, placement, and charter schools, must register with the District registrar.
