Notes from the Churchill Playbook

Thank you for making our staff appreciation week so special. Your kind gestures and many words of appreciation lifted our spirits and made for an exceptional week at Churchill.


We also appreciate those of you who were able to complete the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Community Engagement Subcommittee survey for families. Your feedback will help us plan next steps as we work to create stronger partnerships and more equitable opportunities for our students.


If you have a rising 4th or 5th grade student, please make sure you complete the student information form to provide us input on class placement. While we are not able to honor specific teacher requests, we do value and consider the information you provide to find just the right placement to ensure a successful school year. This form is due by Friday, May 21st.

Important In-Person Reminders

Arrival - Please help us have a great start to our day by ensuring you have self certified your child before coming to school. They must be wearing the blue wristband in order to head straight to class. Please see this information for your responsibility in keeping our community safe and healthy.


Dismissal - Please proceed slowly and with caution in pedestrian areas at dismissal. There is a designated length of curb where car riders may be picked up. It is important that all drivers in the first group remain in their car in order to quickly pull away from the pick-up area once your child has buckled in. Please pull all the way forward and do not double park. It is not safe to pick-up your child in an area that requires them to navigate traffic.
