As we near the end of May, I wanted to provide you with some updates and reminders about what's happening at Colin Powell Academy.

Firstly, I'm delighted to announce that our Fun Fridays will continue this week! On Friday, May 24, we will be hosting Kona Ice for students to enjoy. These fun activities provide a great opportunity for students to unwind and connect with their peers. As always, I kindly remind students to demonstrate respect and responsibility towards themselves and others during these events.

Looking ahead, I'd like to highlight a few important dates and events:

Chromebook Collection

Chromebook collection will take place from June 3rd to June 7th. Please ensure that your child is prepared to return their Chromebook and any accompanying accessories during this time.

Field Day Volunteers

We are in need of volunteers for our upcoming Field Day on June 11th. If you're available to lend a hand and help make this day memorable for our students, please let us know. Your support is greatly appreciated!

Additionally, I encourage you to stay updated on our upcoming events and activities by checking our school calendar (below).

Here's To A Great Week,
