Dear Cherry Drive Families,
Thank you for a great first week of May. As a reminder, for safety purposes, please do not let any adult enter our building without first checking in with the office. We ask all parents and guardians please ring our office and check in versus walking right through the main doors, even if they are held open.

One Book One Cherry Drive Reminders
Please remember to spend time each day reading with your child, completing the at home activities on the BINGO Board and listening to teachers and read the book aloud. Here is a link to the website with the reading calendar, read alouds, trivia questions and more. Here is a copy of the letter that came home last week in English and Spanish. Be sure to complete the trivia questions each week by 2pm every Thursday to win prizes! Our Literacy Night County Fair is next Friday so we hope to see you there!
