Hello Ride Parents,

We are excited about the Red Wagon/CPHS Homecoming Parade on Wednesday, September 13th! Sally K. Ride is encouraging everyone to come out and enjoy the community event. There will also be a fantastic High School Pep Rally immediately following the parade on Market Street. We are going to make a day of it at school as well. The theme is Paris! On Wednesday, wear black and white to school!

Red scarves will be handed out to all students who come to the parade to accentuate your outfit. Many parents have also said they have found some cute berets to wear. We have even provided a cute cut out beret the kids and make and color to wear at the parade.

We will meet in the Orvis parking lot at 5:30pm. The parade begins at 6:00pm and it will procede around the Market street square and end right back at Orvis. I hope you can join us!!

I would also like to feature our after school dance club, Dancing Through Life. It is a great opportunity the Fred Astaire Dance Studio has brought to Ride. Please scroll down to the bottom of newsletter for more information! It is for Kindergarten through 4th grade.

We hope you have a wonderful weekend.

If you sign up to eat outside and it rains, you will be unable to move into the building due to limited seating. You may sign up for another day/time.

Each slot is available for two adults and the child you are eating lunch with..

Please see the schedule below for designated grade level lunch visitor’s days. Make sure that you sign up under the correct time slot for your child’s lunchtime.
