A Message from Ms. Piezas
Hello Corvallis Community,
May is here! Have you noticed our fence art work? Our PTA and fifth grade classes are putting up cups to give our youngest students more privacy. It also makes Corvallis look even more cheerful.
It's teacher appreciation week! We are so grateful for all of our wonderful teachers and all of their hard work. A word of thanks means so much to them so reach out and say thanks.
Our Corvallis Beautification Day was rained out. It has been rescheduled to May 18th! I'll keep reminding you. 😃
The Californa Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAAASPP) will be given to all third, fourth and fifth graders in May. Our site testing window is May6-May 24th. Your child will not be testing all of those days. Check with your child's teacher for the days they will be testing. The test is an important one and one that we encourage our students to show how much they've learned. This assessment is not meant to create a stressful situation. We only ask that studnets try their best. Parents can help by making sure studnets get enough rest the nights before testing. We have free breakfast at school for any students who don't eat at home. If you have any questions, please reach out to your teacher or to me.
Have a wonderful week,
M. Piezas

Join PTA
We need more PTA members! We've all enjoyed the events this year. In order for these events to keep happening we need new and more PTA members. Worried about your language skills? Not a problem, we will work that out. Our students tend to play together during the meetings, so feel free to bring them along. You can email corvalliselementarypta@gmail.com for more information.
Absences and Tardies
Students entering the building from 8:35-8:45 will be greeted by our staff and given a tardy slip to take to class. After 8:45 students will report to the office to obtain a tardy slip.
If your child will not attend school on a particular day you may email cor.att@slzusd.org or call 510-317-4999. Please leave a voice mail. Our office checks it several times a day.
