We had a great day on Friday as it was the beginning of our "Read Around the Galaxy" Month. It is so important that students are here every day because every school day counts. Students are much more successful academically when they are in school on a consistent basis, but they are also more successful socially as it takes time to build strong relationships with their teacher and peers. We are here to support you in getting your child here and on time. If you have any questions or help with these, please feel free to reach out to me: k_bedley@sau9.org or 603-447-3369 Thank you!!

We continue to have parents dropping students off in front of the school after 8:30. It is important that ALL students being dropped off in the morning, after 8:30, must be dropped off in the BACK of the school (by the playground).

Our school budget deliberative session is tonight (3/4 at 7:00 in the auditorium at KHS). Deliberative sessions are a time to discuss and hear discussion on the school budget and the plans moving forward. Voters can speak and amend the budget at this meeting. Voting on the budget will happen on April 9.

• If you are picking up your student in the afternoons, please be sure to put out the name card up on your dashboard to be seen. Also, please keep two lanes of traffic until you reach the corner of the brown building (Music Room).
• Our main form of communication with parents is through email. Please make sure that your email is updated in PowerSchool. It is extremely important that we have all of your contact information in case of an emergency with your child. Please update any home or cell phone numbers in PowerSchool. We have found that many parents voice mailboxes are full or they have not set up their voicemail. We ask that you also update your emergency contact names and phone numbers.
• If there is a change in routine for your child's afternoon plans please communicate them with your child's teacher and the main office by sending a note into school, an email, or a phone call.
• Students may bring devices (phones, ipods, smart watches etc.) to school. However, the devices will be placed in backpacks for the duration of the school day. CES is not responsible for lost or missing items.
