Please help us out!! Teachers do not always have the opportunity to check their emails, Remind messages, texts, or DoJos during the day (they are teaching your children). If your child is going home in a way other than what we have listed, please CALL the OFFICE. This will help us to ensure that your child is going home the way you need.

The grade levels are in a year long competition to earn points. There are many, many ways to earn points. Here are just a few:

• Earn the golden award for the week
• Display behavior matrix behaviors in assembly, cafe, hallways, playgrounds
• Receive a student brag from the teachers
• Go above and beyond in showing the character word of the month
• Complete Parent Center Activities at home

We have TONS of activities working on a wide range of skills for students to check out and take home to do with parents or family. Each time an activity is completed, that child's team will earn Olympic points.

If you'd like to check out an activity, simply email your child's teacher and let them know. You can also reach out to Mrs. Morris or Mrs. Voegele at brittany.morris@cps.k12.ar.us or sherry.voegele@cps.k12.ar.us and let them know your child's name, teacher and if you'd like a reading, math, or social skills activity.

• If you would like to chaperone field trips, volunteer at class parties, help teachers in their classroom, you MUST be on the Hallway Hero trained list. If you were trained in the past, you should be good but we must check. BACKGROUND CHECKS must be renewed EACH YEAR.
• 3rd Grade will be giving a short performance for all 3rd graders who can attend
• Title 1 Report to the Public will be given

• Car tags need to be displayed in the dashboard. If you don't have a car tag, please have Identification ready to be checked.
• Handwritten or previous years' tags will not be accepted as identification. Only tags handed out this school year will work.
• If you misplace your car tag and need a replacement, please email makenzie.rodgers@cabotschools.org
• If your child needs to be buckled, please pull into the middle of the lot to get out and buckle them. This allows the line to continue flowing.

There is a charge for milk and water if the child is not getting a tray even if your child receives free and reduced lunch.

If your child brings breakfast to school, we ask they take it to the cafeteria to eat. Only water is allowed in the classrooms. Snack foods are allowed during designated snack times only. If students bring drinks such as smoothies or coffees, they will need to consume it in the cafeteria and discard it before arriving to the classroom. Thank you for your cooperation with this.

Snack times are determined in each classroom by the schedule and convenient time of the day. We ask that you avoid candy or sugary items as snacks as these do not promote optimal brain function or prevent hunger. Snacks should be items that can be consumed easily and quickly by the children and do not require prep.

Ex. bags of gold fish, small fruits like grapes or berries, string cheese, granola bars, etc.

Lunch money may be turned directly into the cafeteria, the office, or your child's teacher. Please make sure that it clearly labeled with the child's name.

We ask that you work to keep any charges paid in a timely manner and under a $10 limit.

For information about how to apply for free or reduced lunches please visit the CPS Website

The school Lost and Found is located in the atrium of the Bus Lost entrance. It fills up with water bottles, lunch boxes, and jackets very quickly. Please label these items with your child's name. If you know they've lost an item, have them check the lost and found.
