Carberry Elementary Newsletter
Note From Mr. Alexander
Dear Carberry Elementary School Parents,
As we navigate through the remainder of the school year, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on our shared commitment to building a strong and supportive community at Carberry Elementary.
First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude to each and every one of you for your ongoing dedication to your child's education. Your involvement, whether it be through volunteering, attending school events, or supporting learning at home, plays a crucial role in the success of our students.
Carberry Elementary is not just a school; it is a community of learners, educators, and families working together to provide the best possible environment for our children to thrive. We believe in the power of collaboration and the idea that when we work together, we can overcome any challenge.
Understanding the diverse challenges and barriers that our families and students face is paramount to our mission. We are committed to creating an inclusive and supportive environment where everyone feels valued and heard. As a community school, we aim to leverage the unique assets within our community to address these challenges collectively.
In the spirit of unity, I encourage you to reach out to our dedicated staff if you ever need support or if there are specific challenges that you would like us to address. We are here to help and are continuously exploring ways to enhance the support systems available to our students and families.
Together, we can make Carberry Elementary a place where every child feels supported, encouraged, and inspired to reach their full potential. Thank you for being an essential part of our community, and let's continue to create a positive and empowering environment for our students.
Wishing you a joyful and successful February!
Warm regards,
Greg Alexander
Principal, Carberry Elementary School

NO TOYS ALLOWED AT SCHOOL
Parents, please make sure your students do NOT bring toys to school. Per our Student Handbook page 3, "The school will not be responsible for items lost, stolen, or broken. Therefore, electronic games or devices, cell phones, smart watches, toys, trading cards, skates, skateboards, etc. are not to be brought to school. Watches that are considered "smart" devices are not to be used and are considered a cellular device. If they are at school and become a problem, staff may take the item from the student and only return the item to parents.
