Cherrydale Primary School

From the Principal
Happy Wednesday Cherrydale Families!
Help Cherrydale Reach 100%: Complete Your Impact Aid Survey!
Families, your voice matters! On Monday, October 19, you received an Impact Aid survey through ParentSquare. We are aiming for 100% participation, and we need your help!
Impact Aid surveys help our district identify students whose families live or work on federal property or are connected to the military. The information collected helps determine federal funding that supports our schools and students. Every completed survey matters, and returning yours helps ensure our district receives the funding it is eligible for to support student learning and school programs.
Please take a few minutes to complete and submit your survey through ParentSquare. Our goal is 100% of surveys returned! Thank you for partnering with us and helping our Cherrydale Cheetahs thrive!
A Few Fall Reminders!
Fall conferences are underway! Thank you for taking the time to connect with your child's teacher and partner with us to support your child's growth and learning.
And don't forget to stop by the Book Fair before it closes ! There's still time to find a new favorite book and help foster a love of reading at home. Thank you for supporting our readers!
Have a wonderful week!
Warm Regards,
Principal Firth
