Ventana Vista
September 1st - 7th, 2021
Due to the Labor Day holiday there is NO SCHOOL on Monday 9/6
Hearing and Vision Screenings
If there are any concerns, parents will receive notification from the health office.
VERY IMPORTANT! Dismissal
All after school plan changes need to be shared with our front office.
If your child usually goes to CARE 5 days a week, but this week he/she is going to get picked up on Wednesday, we need to know that. All the after school plans need to be communicated to the front office. If you send these changes to your teacher and not to the front office, it causes confusion in our computer system which causes delays for everyone.
If your child is signed up for a class or for CARE but you decide to come to parent pick up or your child is usually a walker but you decide because it's raining you are going to come through parent pick up without telling the front office, it causes all the cars behind you to be assigned to a different spot than their child which causes delays for everyone.
Call 209-8001 or email abuick@cfsd16.org to tell us of your change of plans. Thanks for your cooperation.
Change for students during arrival coming soon!
Students who eat breakfast at school will go through the front gate to eat outside on the MPR stairs.
If you arrive after 7:53 your children will walk to their classrooms as they have been all along as class begins at 8am.
We will close the gate to the loop at 8:00am and all students who arrive after the gate is closed are marked tardy.
Please remember the north parking lot in the bus loop IS NOT an approved location to drop off your children before school.
