Hi CPS Families,


This week ended with our Forest Day for CPS and it was made possible by Beth Swahn and Elaine Philbrook and an amazing crew of presenters and volunteers. Thank you all so much for your time and unwavering support in making this day so special for our students!


We have been working diligently with the CPS teachers in creating class lists for next year. Families will be notified the first week in August with a mailing that will include teacher assignment and a welcome letter. We understand this is a different procedure than in the years past, however, we need to be in alignment with the other elementary schools in the district with their timing of this information. Class lists are given a considerable amount of focus and time as we take many factors into consideration. Students will take part in a step-up day next week and visit all potential classrooms for next year. Thank you for your understanding of this process.


CPS is getting a face lift this summer! The building is getting all new exterior windows installed starting the week after school is out. We want families to have this information that visit our playground over the summer.


Thank you for all that you do.


~Kahlie and Liz

Lost & Found

Our lost and found is full and the end of the school year is fast approaching! Please take a moment to see if anything belongs to your student(s).

🏀⚽🏈 This is a reminder that there should be no balls or playground equipment coming to school with students! We thank you for your help with this! ⚽🏀🏈

Update From the Nurse Update From the Nurse

Please review the health manual accessible via our school’s website for the full policy on when to stay home and when it is appropriate to return to school. A few key points are fevers, diarrhea and vomiting. Your child must be free of both without medication for 24 hours before returning to school.

We are also seeing students that are in need of a change of clothes for various reasons, so it would be helpful if they keep a seasonally appropriate change of clothes including socks in their backpacks daily.
