Dear Intermediate School Families,
It's a busy time of year for our students and families! This month is filled with concerts, exciting activities, and all around seasonal cheer beginning this week. The CVIS PTG will hold the Annual Snowball Express Workshop THIS WEEK! All students will have the opportunity to shop for their friends and family during their gym class – see schedule in the link below. Students brought home shopping information last week. In order to make the workshop a success, we need your help. Parents can sign up to help the students shop via the link below. https://bit.ly/3CJbvSJ
On Thursday, December 9th at 7:00 pm join us for the annual Chorus Concert. Enjoy the seasonal sounds of our 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade chorus students as they showcase their efforts for family and friends in the IS Auditorium. You can also stop by the auditorium lobby from 5:00-6:30 for the Snowball Express Family Shop Night before the concert!
The virtual art show is live December 8-17, 2021! Please click here for the link to view and make purchases. The in-person event will be held on December 15 from 6:30-8:00 pm in the Intermediate School auditorium. More details will be included in next week's Monday Memo.
I'm sure you know Mr. Zissis is always up to something interesting, engaging, and fun in the Digital Media Center (DMC) with our students! You may have heard your child/children coming home excited and talking about the things they have been doing recently in DML class. With the holidays around the corner, Mr. Zissis put together a list to let families know what they are using and where to get some of it. The children are always asking where they can get these exciting learning activities! Click here to see Mr. Zissis' holiday gift guide.
Finally for this week, Chartiers Valley Elementary Schools have been granted Schoolwide Title I status from the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE). The Schoolwide status allows CVPS and CVIS to provide additional reading services as needed through each level of the Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) programming. As part of Title I services, the district has developed a learning contract between home and school. This learning contract was developed through the Title I Advisory Council. Please click here to review the learning contract.
As always, thank you for your partnership in your child's education!

Mrs. Julie Franczyk, Principal

From the Cafeteria
This school year our Food Service Department is experiencing some supply chain issues with numerous menu items for both breakfast and lunch. Some popular items are on backorder with no known restock date at this time. Please be aware that we are adjusting the menus when we are informed of any out of stock items and we are giving students other options to choose from during meal service. We ask for your patience during this time, we are doing the best we can with what products we are able to order. Please contact me if you have any questions and thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
Chartiers Valley School District is offering FREE breakfast and FREE lunch to every student, every school day. More information.
We are also offering an a la carte snack menu this year for students who wish to pack their lunch and buy snacks.
