A Message from Dr. Poncheri

Dear Cole Manor Families,

Spring is just around the corner, and March is shaping up to be an exciting month at Cole Manor. We are excited to host several school wide activities which will present opportunities to connect with our families. As always, our PFC meeting will be held the first Wednesday of the month ( 3/4/26) at 6 PM. We will revert back to in person this month now that the weather has improved! Below are additional events to look out for as we move through March. Thank you!

Spring Break
Our Spring Break will take place from Monday, March 30 through Friday, April 5. We hope all our students and families enjoy a restful and fun-filled week.

STAR Testing
Students will be participating in STAR assessments this month. These tests help us track reading and math progress, so please ensure your child is well-rested and ready to do their best.

Spirit Days
Get ready to show your school spirit! We will have Spirit Days throughout March – details will be shared with students in class and on our social media pages.

BINGO Night
Mark your calendars for BINGO Night. More information, including the date and time, will be sent out soon. We can’t wait to see families come together for a fun evening of games and prizes. This will be a PFC sponsored event!

Conferences
Parent-teacher conferences will be held on March 26th & 27th. This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with your child’s teacher and discuss their progress. Please contact your child's teacher is you do not have a set time by 3/15/26.

Thank you for your continued support in making Cole Manor a place where students thrive.

Sincerely,

Dr. Poncheri

DONATE YOUR USED GLASSES! DONATE YOUR USED GLASSES!

EYEGLASSES NEEDED-Collection through MAY 15th!

This year, the Health Room is having an eyeglass donation drive for children and adult glasses. If you have old, broken, or unused prescription glasses at home, please donate them to Cole Manor. All glasses collected will be donated to Kiwanis Club, to be recycled and used again, for those in need. Please only donate prescription glasses. Please see the link below to check out the Kiwanis Club organization.

The students who participate in this activity will receive a prize at the end of the donation drive, as well as a period of extra recess, on a day to be designated by Dr. Poncheri. The classroom who donates the most glasses will have a pizza party, also on a day designated by Dr. Poncheri. This is a worthy cause that does not cost anything to participate in and can help remove some clutter in the home. Thank you for your consideration and support.




Hola, estudiantes, familias y personal.

Este año, la Enfermería está llevando a cabo una campaña de donación de lentes, tanto para niños como para adultos. Por lo tanto, si tienen en casa lentes de receta (con aumento) viejos, rotos o que ya no utilicen, por favor dónenlos a Cole Manor. Todos los lentes recolectados serán donados al Club Kiwanis para ser reciclados y reutilizados en beneficio de quienes más lo necesitan. Por favor, donen únicamente lentes con aumento. Consulten el enlace que aparece a continuación para obtener más información sobre la organización Club Kiwanis.

Los estudiantes que participen en esta actividad recibirán un premio al finalizar la campaña de donación, así como un periodo de recreo adicional en una fecha que designará la Dra. Poncheri. La clase que done la mayor cantidad de lentes disfrutará de una fiesta de pizza, también en una fecha designada por la Dra. Poncheri. Esta es una causa noble en la que participar no tiene ningún costo y que, además, puede ayudarles a despejar un poco el desorden en sus hogares. Gracias por su consideración y apoyo.
