Free Be Seen & Heard Programming Resources for Parents
As previously shared, our school recently hosted the Be Seen and Heard© child sexual abuse prevention program. Students learned about the difference between safe and unsafe touch, the difference between safe and unsafe secrets and the importance of speaking up to trusted heroes in an age-appropriate, safe and engaging environment.
If you wish to continue this valuable conversation about body safety and prevention with your child, you are invited to create a free membership with Be Seen & Heard by completing the signup form linked here. By joining, you will receive a number of free resources.

You'll learn about kindergarten in CCSD93 through a video from your child’s school principal and be asked to submit basic information to begin the registration process. You’ll also learn about CCSD93’s Dual Language program, which kindergarteners are invited to commit to in order to become bilingual in both English and Spanish.

Please FORWARD this email to anyone you know who has an incoming kindergartener.
Parking Compliance with the CSPD
We understand that the car line in the morning can be lengthy and take a while to get through therefore parents have parked in Aspen Ct. across the street from the school. However, the CSPD has received several complaints from residents that cars are blocking driveways and residents are unable to get out of their driveway to leave for work. There have also been reports of parents parking in front of the fire hydrants. If you choose to park on the street and walk your child to school, please be mindful that you are not blocking driveways. CSPD has increased police presence during arrival time to ensure parking compliance is being followed. Thank you for your cooperation.
Open House
Please mark your calendars for Cloverdale's Open House on Wednesday, February 28th from 6:30-7:30. This is an opportunity for you to come visit your child's classroom and see work that they have completed throughout the school year. Additionally, we will have a book fair open that evening from 6:00-7:00 in the Multipurpose Room. We hope to see you there!
One School One Book
We started reading "A Boy Called Bat" for our One School, One Book this year. This week, teachers read chapters 1-3 in class. The reading schedule for the remainder of the book is listed below. Additionally, students will be completing activities in class that go along with the story and there are activities you can do at home with your child.
Week of February 5-9 Chapters 19-22
Week of February 12-16 Chapters 23-26
Recess
We go outside for recess as long as the “feels like” temperature is 10 degrees. Please ensure that your student has the appropriate winter gear for recess. Students are not allowed to play in the snow without snow pants, boots, coat, and gloves.
