Dear Cedar Grove Families:
Thank you to all our parents and caregivers who came to visit during Open House last Monday. We hope you enjoyed your time in your child's classroom and had an opportunity to see the wonderful teaching and learning that is occurring every day.
Each year, families have an opportunity to purchase a piano at reduced prices through an agreement between MCPS and Schaeffer's Piano Company. The sales event will take place between November 16 and 24 at 105 North Stonestreet Avenue, Rockville, MD. For more information, please click on this link: Piano Sale Program.

Another busy week has gone by! The October Media Monthly has been updated to reflect the new media lessons as well as all the information about the upcoming Pink-Out video and the Great Pumpkin event. The deadline for all of our pink-out pictures is Thursday, October 31 so I can start compiling the video. The drop off time for our Great Pumpkin event is after school on Thursday October 24. If you cannot bring the pumpkins in on Thursday afternoon, you may bring them in before school Friday morning. We are also doing a Give What you Can Canned Food Drive starting October 21 and information about what can be donated during this drive is linked to the Media Monthly. Have a great weekend!
