Dear Primary School Families,
This week we celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week. We are so thankful for the amazing educators we have at the Primary School, including teachers, paraprofessionals, support staff, parents, and guardians. As Brad Henry Love stated, "A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning." We are thankful for all educators for the impact they have on our students. This year, families may complete this Google Form to honor and recognize a staff member at the Primary School. This Google Form will be available till 12:00 noon on Thursday, May 6. The notes will then be printed and provided to the staff member.
Chartiers Valley is pleased to invite every one of our PS families to participate in National Family Code Night, a free live-stream family learning event. This event will take place on May 15 from 7 PM to 8 PM. Regardless of physical location, our school's community can share this wonderful learning experience in which each child pairs up with a guardian or older sibling to complete an hour of coding together! Save the date and get ready for a community learning experience the whole family will love and value. For more information, please visit: National Family Code Night.
As we near the end of the year, we want 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 kindergarten screening will be held the last week of May!
Please note the changes to the end-of-year dates on 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. Our annual Fun Day will be held on Tuesday, May 25.
Finally, please be sure to read an important message from Superintendent Dr. Vanatta below.
Remember, it is a GREAT day to be a Colt!
