Dear Cherry Families,

Our Cherry k-1 winter concert is Wednesday, December 14, at 6:30 pm at the Oak Campus (6903 Oak Street). Parking and the entrances are on the east side of the building. Enter from 69th Terrace. Students should be in uniform. 

Please plan to arrive with your child at 6:10 pm. Each class will have an assigned room where parents should drop off their child. The concert will be in the auditorium, which is on the 2nd floor. We will have plenty of staff to help direct parents and students. After the concert is over, parents will go back to the same classroom to collect their child.

Please plan to stay for the entire concert.  

We look forward to seeing you on December 14 at the Oak Campus!

The Académie Lafayette Board of Directors will meet online & in the Armour cafeteria at 6:00 pm on Monday, December 12. You can view the meeting live on our YouTube channel. Click here to read the agenda.

We have a work day planned for Saturday, December 10, from 8:00 to 11:00 am at the Cherry campus. We need volunteers for the following jobs:

Please bring rakes, gloves, and scissors (for cutting the weed blocker) if you can.

Please contact Abby or Kyle Fitzgerald (absterdpt@gmail.com) or Kevin Klingenberg (kevinklinkenberg@gmail.com) with questions. We look forward to seeing you on the 10th at Cherry.

The middle school understands that requiring payment for participation creates concerns over equity. Our solution is to request that parents that are able send their students with extra dollars next week. These extra dollars will be placed in a "scholarship" fund and will offset any students who cannot bring a dollar to participate. This will support students for whom paying, especially at this time of the year, is a burden on their families. We don't want anyone to feel left out.
