A message from the principal
With Gratitude
I will keep things short and sweet this week. I want to express my gratitude to the CBPA staff and school community for giving me the opportunity to continue to serve here as the permanent principal. I am looking forward to continuing to connect with students, staff and families. This is a fantastic place to be, and I am thankful for the opportunity to stay and serve this incredible community! Thank you!
I hope you all have a wonderful spring break, and I am looking forward to a wonderful final trimester of the 2022-2023 school year!

Time commitment would be 6 weeks or more if you like. Training is provided by the district. Please let me know if this is something you would like to be a part of!
Challenge Reading Leaders: In Challenge Reading, volunteers provide children with additional opportunities to foster a love of reading outside of the classroom by introducing various genres of literature, extending students' writing connections and promoting higher level thinking skills.
