2024 Reminder
Just a gentle reminder to please be courteous to our neighbors. Do not block our neighbors’ driveways or move trash cans. Please do not drop off/pick up students in residents’ driveways. Also, remember that students may not be dropped off or picked up in any of the staff parking lots. Let’s all be courteous to our CVHS neighbors. As construction continues on our field, we understand traffic and parking is a challenge. Give yourself a few extra minutes to minimize those challenges. Please remember this is for the safety of all.
PARENTS AND STUDENTS
Dear Families,
Starting from May 13th to May 17th, and then from May 20th to May 24th, we will be conducting a school supplies drive aimed at collecting essential items for students in need. These supplies include pencils, crayons, erasers, tissues, colored pencils, backpacks, glue sticks, scotch tape, binders, highlighters, 12” rulers with metric and standard measurements, good quality staplers with small staples, 8 1/2” X 11” wide-ruled notebook paper (NOT college ruled), 3-ring binders, 3 notebook folders with pockets for use in binders, and pencil boxes’. It's our collective responsibility to ensure that every student has access to the tools they need to succeed academically. By contributing to this drive, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of many young learners.Thank you for your time and consideration,
Je T'aime Scoggins, Julie Stephan, Taylor Larson, Kelcie Peterson
