Dear Primary School Families,

Please remember, all approved guardians that arrive for car rider dismissal must be prepared to show a driver’s license or photo identification daily. This information is listed on pages 8-9 in the Elementary K-5 Student Handbook for further reference. Please remember to send an email to psattendance@cvsd.net for any updates or changes to your approved pick-up list.

Last week, the Primary School celebrated Veteran's Day with multiple programs created by faculty to honor and celebrate those in the community that have served our country. Please reference the photos below in honor of these celebrations.

CVPS will be sponsoring an Angel Tree this holiday season. The Angel Tree Program is a project in which CVPS families may purchase a Christmas gift for a child who is in need. We would like to find out if there are any families at CVPS who would be interested in their children being recipients of the gifts collected through the Angel Tree Program.

Every effort is made to protect the identity and maintain the confidentiality of recipients. Megan Mouas, the school counselor, assists in finding interested families, but the information given to shoppers is general information. We coordinate arrangements with the families so the children have their gifts in time for the holidays.

We are not certain how many families we will be able to assist, so it is encouraged that you either complete the electronic form, in the Monday Memo OR return the hard copy sent home by Monday, November 22, 2021. If you complete the hard copy of the form, please return the form to the attention of Mrs. Mouas. This program is run on a first-come-first-served basis. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Megan Mouas through email, mmouas@cvsd.net or by phone, (412)429-7016.

If you enjoy working with children, we would love for you to join our team (or as we call it, our "CV family")! Click here to explore the various employment opportunities within CVSD, which include full-time, part-time, and substitute options.

Have a wonderful week.

Sincerely,

Emily Mather, Academic Principal

Anissa Rosenwald, Program Principal
