AMERICAN EDUCATION WEEK
American Education Week is an opportunity to visit your child’s classroom and watch your children in action as they learn something new, participate in a curricular activity, or give a special presentation for visitors. For this week's schedule, see the "Mark the Calendar" section of this Gazette.
We invite you to come and join us, remembering that cell phone use while in the school is not permitted, and that this is an “adults only” visit as small children may disrupt instruction during this time.

WE ARE THANKFUL
This year we will once again extend the spirit of giving for the Thanksgiving holiday. Given the continuing economic conditions, many CB families find themselves in need of assistance. Therefore, Gayman will be collecting money that will be used to purchase grocery store gift cards to be used towards the Thanksgiving holiday. Contributions will be collected now through Thursday, November 16th. Please send your donation to the front office in an envelope marked “Thanksgiving Donations.”
We appreciate your voluntary participation in this worthwhile project. We truly believe that in giving we also receive, and helping others immeasurably enriches our children’s lives.
FIRST TRIMESTER PARENT/TEACHER CONFERENCES
Fall conference sign-ups will "go live" on Monday, November 20th at 3:30PM through specific teacher Sign-Up Genius links.
If you are having any difficulty selecting a conference time, please contact your child(ren)'s teacher to make other arrangements.
Conference Dates:
