Cowlishaw News

Students celebrated their hard work at our BIG EVENT on Friday for a welcome summer, beach day! Although the rain brough us inside for some of the lunches, the kids had a great time with friends and listened to great beachy music!

⛺All 1st graders had a blast participating in CAMP SKEETER, a day filled with fun camp themed activities.

This week, 5th graders enjoyed a hands on science program where they learned about food chains and dissected owl pellets!

Field Day is scheduled for Wednesday, May 29th, and in order for this day to be a success, we need your help!!! 3rd-5th grades will participate in the morning session, with K-2nd participating in the afternoon session. Please consider signing up to help!

If you have technical questions about how to complete your family's online registration, we invite you to reach out to our Student Information System support team by email at sis@ipsd.org.

Summer is a great time to enjoy lots of books! Click here for info about Cowlishaw’s Summer Reading Challenge, as well as book recommendations and other summer reading opportunities (also found on the Cowlishaw LMC Google Site).

3rd - 4th grade students will once again keep their Chromebooks and chargers through the summer months. Digital resources will be available for student use until the end of July. However, there will be no tech support available. A common problem is the Chromebook will not turn on, despite being plugged in for a while. Click here for troubleshooting steps to help solve this problem (also found on the Cowlishaw LMC Google Site). Thank you!
