Lubbock-Cooper Central Elementary

Central Elementary Community! Let’s 'Deck the Halls' at Central Elementary and bring holiday cheer to our students and staff!

We invite our families to come help decorate our classroom doors for the holiday season! Here’s what you need to know:

• Sign-ups to decorate classroom doors will be on a first come-first serve basis through the following google form. (If you are not selected for your child's door there are other opportunities on campus!)
  

• Google Form Sign ups Link: https://forms.gle/ZGaow6oGeV5pbgVU6
  

• Sign-ups open TODAY Friday, November 15th.

• If you sign up, you are committing to decorating a classroom door in a holiday theme.

• Doors must be school appropriate, with no religious affiliation.

• Central Elementary will supply butcher paper for the background. All other supplies must be provided by the decorators.

• 4th and 5th grade pod areas: We recommend shoe polish for glass doors. Butcher paper will not hold well.

• Doors will be judged for prizes the week of the 9th

• Decoration Times: Between 8:00-3:00pm or 3:45-5:00 pm. All visitors must still check-in through the front office. Be sure to communicate with the classroom teacher to get approval of decoration time.

• Doors must remain functional and the lock must be accessible by key.

• Decorations may not impede student and teacher safety (tripping hazard, fire hazard, etc.)
