Dear Colin Powell Academy Families,
I want to take a moment to express my gratitude for your tremendous support during our recent Hispanic Heritage Fair. Your involvement played a vital role in celebrating our diverse cultures and making the event a success.
I also want to acknowledge the letter I sent on Friday, October 11, 2024, regarding an incident at our school. We hear your concerns, and I want to reassure you that the safety and well-being of our students and staff are our highest priorities.
As we continue to navigate this school year together, I invite you to join me for our Principal's - CPA Conversations (Chat and Chew ) on October 29, 2024. This will be a great opportunity for us to discuss your questions and concerns, as well as share updates on what’s happening at CPA.
Thank you for your ongoing support and collaboration.
Sincerely,
Ms. Lattimore
