Welcome Back to School
We are thrilled to welcome all students and families back for another school year! Below you will find all the information that you need to start off the school year!
The first day of school is Tuesday, September 3, 2024.
Who is my child's teacher?
Class assignments will be in WITS on Friday, August 23. You will need to log into WITS, and select “Classes” at the top blue ribbon to see your child’s teacher. An opportunity to provide input was taken from families as we developed balanced classes. Requests to change a teacher will not be honored.

Explore CP and Popsicles on the Playground
On Monday, August 26, from 4:00 to 5:45 pm we welcome all CP families to come to the playground for a casual meet and greet (with popsicles!). In addition, we will have the building open for families to Explore CP, navigate around the school and find their classroom. Teachers will not be on sight and this is not a time to drop off supplies. This is a time for your family to familiarize yourself to CP. Thanks to our PTA for sponsoring this event!
