Cooke Elementary received a Phase 2 School-wide PBS recognition from the Delaware MTSS Technical Assistance Center! This achievement reflects the hard work and dedication to creating a positive, supportive environment for our students. Cooke was among four schools recognized this week at the Red Clay Board of Education meeting.

School Choice Information Night
School Choice: School Choice Information Night—a VIRTUAL MEETING on Tuesday, October 22, 2024, at 6:00 PM! Discover how you can give your child access to a world-class education here in Red Clay, where diversity, innovation, and excellence come together. Please share this information with your network.
If you plan to volunteer at Cooke (chaperone a field trip, help in the classroom, help at a school event such as the Book Fair or Holiday Shop, etc.) you must complete the State of Delaware process to become an approved volunteer.
There are three documents you need to turn in:
1. Confidentiality Agreement
2. TB Risk Assessment
3. RECEIPT for the $14 online fee for the Child Protection Registry
Please turn in all of the documents at one time to your child's homeroom teacher.
Documents must be received in the office BEFORE the date of the volunteer opportunity/field trip.
Volunteer approval is good for ONE calendar year. So, if you completed this last October, you are cleared through October 2024. Then you must resubmit the three documents. If you are unsure when you expire, you can call the main office at 302-235-6600.
Some parents have expressed trouble with the Child Protection Registry site. We do not have tech support for this. We have learned that it is best to do this on a computer versus a phone. That seems to be more successful.
So you've downloaded the Volunteer Guidelines paper work Now what
