Dear Center Community,
So proud of our student council for their organization of the food drive for the local food pantry. Our community once again demonstrated their generous spirit and donated an abundance of non-perishable items. THANK YOU!!
Another huge thank you to our CSPTO for the donation of our Chelmsford PRIDE and kindness t-shirts. Many staff donned them today and they will be a big hit on may Kindness and PRIDE spirit days to come.
Speaking of PRIDE, we had our first student led PRIDE assembly this year. Our 2nd grade team shared poems, posters, and goals regarding perseverance and the power of "yet". They were amazing.
A reminder that Wednesday is an early release day for conferences. Students will be dismissed at 11:45. Please let you teacher(s) know if this results in a change to your students' dismissal plans.
Enjoy the weekend.
Warm Regards,
Dianna and Donna

Food Services Information
This year, and moving forward, Massachusetts is offering all school lunch and breakfast at no charge to students. This does not automatically make families eligible for any other benefits. We strongly encourage families that feel they are eligible for transportation or extended day reduced tuition to fill out the online free and reduced meal application. The links can be found below. https://cpsnutrition.com/index.php?sid=1478035692058&page=lunchapps
If you do qualify for benefits you most likely will be eligible for SNAP benefits. https://www.mass.gov/snap-benefits-formerly-food-stamps
Some examples of SNAP benefits are discounts on gas, electric utilities and internet services.
