It's ERB Week!

ERB standardized tests began today and will continue through Thursday, May 11. It is important that your student arrives on time for school as there are no interruptions allowed once the testing begins. Tests will take place until approximately 10:15 a.m. each morning. There will be no homework this week, although they may choose to work on long-term projects. 

Please make sure your child:

• Gets a good night’s sleep.
• Eats a good breakfast.
• Brings in a filled water bottle.
• Knows that they should try their best, but that this is just one snapshot of their learning.
• Arrives at school on time.

No Hot Lunch on Shakespeare Day

Because of classroom lunch celebrations on Shakespeare Day, there will be no Fresh Picks hot lunch offered on Friday, May 12. Please reach out to Sue Manory with any questions.

Fun Run Cancellation

Due to the busy spring schedule, and abundance of end-of-year activities and celebrations in which CAPA has been deeply involved, we have decided to cancel the previously scheduled CAPA Fun Run. We hope that you will take the added time to get outside and enjoy the beautiful spring weather with your families.

On Thursday, May 18 and Friday, May 19, students who are registered for After Care must be picked up by no later than 4:30 p.m. due to a staffing conflict. Thank you for your understanding, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
