Please make sure that students get a good night's rest and breakfast for the End of Grade tests.
Art Portfolios
Greetings from Glenwood’s Art Studio!
Gator Creators have had a busy year exploring, learning, and creating in art this year! Be on the lookout for your child’s art portfolio coming home in the next few weeks as it contains all of their artwork from the school year that hasn’t already been sent home. I encourage you to ask your child about the projects in their portfolios - hopefully they can tell you about the vocabulary, ideas, inspiration and materials related to the projects! Please keep in mind that the number of artworks and projects that students complete in art class vary depending on grade level, project duration and days missed due to being out of school or absences.
If you have any questions feel free to email me! Have a great summer and happy creating,
Lindsey Britt (Art Teacher).

Quick Links
Here Comes the Bus
Download the Bus App! CHCCS uses “Here Comes the Bus”, an app that enables you to see the location of your child’s school bus.
Here’s what to do:
- Look for “Here Comes the Bus” wherever you download your apps, or visit https://herecomesthebus.com/
- Use the District Code: 86446
- Enter your student's identification number. Refer to previous years’ report cards or other school documents. Or, you must contact your school.
- No bus tracking service is 100% accurate.
- Bus substitutions are sometimes made. This can affect the accuracy of the Here Comes the Bus app.
- If you do not receive an app notification, do not assume the bus isn't coming. If in doubt, call the CHCCS Transportation office at (919) 942-5045.
Reminders
Student Directory Information
Note: This will also include exclusion from the school yearbook.
After consulting with the town of Chapel Hill and district leadership it was determined to no longer place a crossing guard at this location. For safety, please keep in mind that families should use designated crosswalks and that students should be accompanied at all times.
Dismissal Procedures
Prestwick Road
Make sure that for arrival and especially the dismissal process you use Prestwick Road. This will allow space for our buses and the Fire Department to navigate traffic smoothly.
Carpool Numbers
Our flier and video below share more information about our dismissal process.
For afternoon dismissal, our school uses a number system. Families will keep their numbers for the entire time they stay at Glenwood. When new siblings join our community you will simply communicate this to our staff and they will be added to our database. Likewise, if you regularly carpool with a family on a consistent basis, you may include other students. It is essential to ensure you share the number with guardians who may pick up your student as this will help maintain the traffic flow.
Our staff will assist the first few weeks of school with distributing numbers as needed.
