Dear Parents and Guardians,

If there is a change in your student’s dismissal plan, please be sure to notify both the classroom teacher and the front office as early as possible. This helps us ensure a smooth and safe dismissal for all students.

Also, we kindly remind students and families to always cross at designated crosswalks where school staff are present. This helps keep everyone safe during busy arrival and dismissal times.

Thank you for helping us keep our school community safe and informed!

CBSD utilizes the online platform MySchoolBucks for school meal payments, making it easy to oversee a child's meal choices and maintain their account balance. It is important that an account is created for every student, regardless of whether they take part in school meals or not. You can access MySchoolBucks to view and/or set up an account for your student(s) here. To set up an account, you will need your child(ren)'s student identification number(s), which can be found in the Parent Portal.

Linden students practice their bus safety drills at the beginning of the school year, so they know what to expect and how to respond in the event of an emergency.

Regular school attendance is critical for a successful school experience. The district urges all parents/guardians to stress punctuality and regular attendance habits with their children. Read more about CBSD attendance and state attendance rules and procedures for student absences
