Students and staff gathered for an assembly where our top readers for the Read-A-Thon got to pie some brave staff members! We are so proud of their hard work!

Please direct any email regarding student absences and/or student dismissals to your child's teacher AND to our CPS office staff, Bobbie Weymouth (bweymouth@rsu18.org) and Mae Slevinsky (mslevinsky@rsu18.org).

Please be sure to communicate any changes for end of day dismissal plans prior to 2:00pm so students can be sure to receive their notes.

Please review the health manual accessible via our school’s website for the full policy on when to stay home and when it is appropriate to return to school. A few key points are fevers, diarrhea and vomiting. Your child must be free of both without medication for 24 hours before returning to school.

We are also seeing students that are in need of a change of clothes for various reasons, so it would be helpful if they keep a seasonally appropriate change of clothes including socks in their backpacks daily.

Next meeting is Thursday, May 1st at 6pm on Google Meet! Here's the link: https://meet.google.com/kvu-jxtp-vuo

We will be planning glow dance, teacher appreciation week, and more! Hope you can make it!!

A few spring season announcements:

Please stay off the rec fields until after cleanup day - the ground is not dry enough yet. Thank you!

No clinics for any leagues on April 20th because of Easter

Field clean up on Saturday, April 26th - if you have baseball equipment your kids have outgrown that you'd like to sell or swap, we encourage you to bring it. We thought this might be a good way to help our neighbors and teammates!

Clinics on Sunday, April 27th - same schedule. Outside if weather permits. In the gym if it doesn't.

If you haven’t already, download the stack team app and log in with your same username and password that you do to register players on chinarecsports.com. Rosters are posted and that automatically emails parents.

Practice and games schedules are coming out soon and will be in the app, as well as all team communications will run through the app.
