CIS Weekly Updates

Our 5th and 6th grade band did a great job at the All-City Band Concert tonight! Our students behaved and did a good job with their performances. Thanks to all the families who were able to attend. It was a packed house!

Friday is our Winterfest for students. This is a celebration for students achieving 6,000 bear paws this school year! A signup for volunteers went out today, and the slots filled up quickly. Students can play several games and get a popcorn snack during their block of time.

Our lost and found continues to grow, and students left some lovely items behind. Please watch these videos to see the items we have at the school. If you see an item that is yours, please talk to your student about getting it from the lost and found when they are at school.

This is the last week before our winter break. I hope you and your family enjoy the holidays. Working with your students is a blessing, and CIS is fortunate to have some amazing families!

Have a WONDERFUL Week!

Brandon Cobb, Principal

The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear!

We hope that you all are as excited as we are to hear our CIS Holiday Choir Concerts! Students have been working very hard and we are excited to perform for a live audience. Here is a little information to help with specifics for our concert evening. All this information is also being sent home on paper with your child and will be sent in the choir remind groups as well.

5th Grade CIS CHOIR Concert Reminder

Date: Tuesday 12/17/2024 at 6:30 pm

Location: CIS Auditorium

Arrival:

• Students please arrive no later than 6:20 pm to the CIS Auditorium. Please leave your coats with your family, and find your spot on the risers. Please dress as nicely as you can, with things you have at home. The concert is FREE and no tickets are required.

Dismissal:

• We will be asking students and families to exit immediately following the concert at approximately 7:00 pm. We need to clear the risers and the audience seats in ten minutes to make space for the 6th grade choir and their families coming in. This will also help greatly with parking. Thank you in advance for your help with this.

Families,

The holiday season can be difficult for those experiencing the loss of a loved one. We will be offering a GRIEF WORKSHOP on December 18th during your child’s lunch/recess block.

During this time, we will eat lunch and make a special ornament.

Our attendance clerk, Mrs. Long, is the contact person for calling off your student and any change of dismissal plans throughout the day. Please call the Attendance Line to reach her and leave a message. The phone number to her desk is 330-335-1481. We recommend you let the attendance desk/teacher know when your student will be absent, leaving early, or arriving late. Letting us know when your child will leave early allows us to be prepared for when you arrive. We ask that all end-of-the-day dismissal plans be made by 2:45 p.m. Thank you for your efforts!
