FINAL REMINDER!! The window to purchase CVUSD chromebook protection will close after November. After next month no student or family will be able to purchase device protection for the remainder of the school year. This means that every student who has a CVUSD device checked out is responsible for any cost to repair or replace the device.
- Students who need to repair the device without district insurance will need to go to a private repair shop.
- Note- Redwood will not issue temporary loaner devices to student during the time f repair, unless written documentation is provided by the repair shop that the device is currently being serviced.
This November, we’re celebrating Gratitude Month at Redwood Middle School with the theme:
“Gratitude Starts with Us.” As a school we are creating a gratitude tree. Each week will have a new prompt for students to complete a gratitude leaf. At the end of each week there will be a drawing of the week's leaves. I entry per person/week. Selected leaves will a prize!
Week 2: Gratitude for Learning November 11–15
- Prompt: What’s something new you’ve learned this year that you’re grateful for : a lesson, skill, or even a mistake that taught you something?
- "I'm grateful ____________________________."
Gratitude is a simple but powerful way to strengthen our Viking community. Thank you for being such an important part of what makes Redwood special.
- Families- Encourage your student to email their teacher(s). This puts your student in charge, giving them valuable self-advocacy skills which will be important as they move into high school and beyond.
- All teachers email addresses can be found on Q Connect under "assignments". Look for the teacher name, click the name and an email will automatically open.
