Cozine Climber Updates - May 6
A Note From Cozine:
Hi Climber Families!
We are nearly finished with this school year! It seems to have flown by! Thank you for your constant support throughout the year! The last day of school for this year is Monday, May 20. School dismissal will be12:30pm that day.
Having your student practice their skills over the summer is so important. If you have a device at home, students will be able to log in to clever.ccsd.net with their school email address and password. They can use Clever to access familiar computer programs throughout the summer. Also check out the Aliante Library or Alexander Library summer reading programs. Here is a calendar of events including free summer tutoring at the Alexander Library.

In Kindness,

Apple Core Winners
Congratulations Climbers!
Cozine Elementary School won third place in the North Las Vegas division of the APPLE CORE District contest.
In addition, three Cozine students won prizes from the District drawing.
Congratulations to Charlee Tyler in Kindergarten who won a bag of books!
Congratulations to Raphael Lunkwitz in second grade who also won a bag of books!
Congratulations to Cameron Randolph in first grade who won a Galaxy tablet!
Research shows that students who do not practice academic skills over the summer break will forget some of the skills taught. This is often referred to as the "summer slide." You can help reduce this learning loss by encouraging students to read over the summer break. Courtesy of Spread the Word Nevada, students have collected books throughout the school year to build their home library. Reading and rereading these books will help students maintain the progress they've made this school year. In addition, we encourage you to visit a public library for students to check out and read additional books. Both the Alexander Library and Aliante Library are close to our school.
Restaurant Fundraiser Nights
Thank you for supporting our Chuck-E-Cheese night! This money helps us support student involvement programs such as sports, cheerleading, and our garden club.
Please mark your calendars for our upcoming Restaurant Night:
- May 15 - u-Swirl Night - Times TBD
- May 17 - MoJoe Coffee Truck at Cozine ES - 8-10am

College and Career Week Speakers
Are you passionate about your career? Sign up to be a guest speaker during Cozine's annual College and Career Week from May 13-17th. Guest speakers will have thirty minutes inside a classroom to teach the students about their career and answer any questions. For more information please contact Ms. Holroyd at holrom@nv.ccsd.net.
REMINDER: Cozine T-Shirts
This post is Carson-approved :)
We have these awesome shirts for sale in the front office! They are $10 and are available in kid and adult sizes.
At this time, the office is only able to accept cash.
REMINDER: Cozine is Hiring!
Cozine is hiring for a Sub on Special Assignment (SOSA) position. A SOSA works directly with our school to fill in any classroom where the teacher is absent for the day and no substitute teacher has filled the position. A person that would be good for the SOSA role is someone who is flexible and can shift mindsets to work with various grade levels on different days. This is a 5-day, full-day position.
A SOSA must hold a substitute license with the District and state, but we can help with that process. If you would like more information about this, please let us know here at Cozine.
REMINDER: Cell Phones and Smart Watches
At Cozine, students are required to keep their personal communication devices off and in their backpacks during instructional hours. Students are permitted to use their phones before and after school. This aligns with District policy that helps prevent bullying, cyber bullying, unfiltered internet access, and cheating. If you have questions about this policy, please reach out to the office or school administration.
