Superintendent's Update

Dear CCPS Families,

Welcome to a new quarter! As we transition into the next phase of our academic year, here are a few key updates and reminders from across the district:

• Academic Progress: Yesterday, November 5, marked the official end of Marking Period 1. Today, we officially begin Marking Period 2. Thank you to our students, teachers, and families for a strong start to the school year.

• Community Highlights: On Thursday evening, I had the privilege of attending the First Responders Dinner hosted by the Chamber of Commerce at Sandy Cove to honor and celebrate the dedicated individuals who serve and protect our local community.

• Fall Athletics: End-of-season competitions are officially underway for our fall sports teams. Please join me in wishing all of our student-athletes the very best of luck as they represent our district in postseason play.

• Upcoming Award Ceremonies: We will be recognizing student achievements in the coming weeks. Please check your child’s individual school communications for specific dates, times, and event details.

• Veterans Day & Early Dismissal: In honor of Veterans Day next week, our schools will be hosting special recognition ceremonies. Please refer to your child’s school for specific event details. Reminder: Wednesday, November 11, will be an early dismissal day for all students.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support of our schools.

Sincerely,

Jeffrey A. Lawson, Ed.D.
