Attention Grade 5 Families: Recently you received a letter from the PSO with important information about the Grade 5 Send Off and what is needed to complete the annual Memory Book. Here is a link to that letter. Please do what you can to upload your photos as soon as possible because students are beginning this work in technology class. Thank you so much for your help so that every 5th grader has what they need to make their memory book page!

CPS Purposeful Play & Risk Challenge

Each month Superintendent Shannon includes a suggestion for purposeful play and developmentally appropriate risk. Here is our March challenge!

Keeping up with our Anxious Generation purposeful play and responsible risk taking challenges, I am inviting you to join in on our March activities. This month, our challenges are:

Purposeful Play Challenge

March is here! Daylight lasts longer, I can hear the peepers, and the plants are popping up. Take advantage of the warmer weather and sunshine and take a family walk on the beach! While you're there, skip some rocks, build a sandcastle, or have a catch.

Responsible Risk Taking Challenge

This month is all about getting outside in the warmer weather and sunshine. Find a spot to take a hike. There are so many great spots locally -Turkey Hill, Wheelwright, Great Esker Park, Blue Hills, Borderland State Park. Choose a hike that is at the right challenge level for you and your child and let them try something new ~ climb a new rock, climb a tree, explore a new pay.
