Together We Will Shine!
Principal's Report
It was so nice to welcome our students back in the building this week! We have missed them so much! Their smiling faces bring us so much joy!
We are still adjusting to our new hybrid learning plan so we encourage you to continue to review our Shawnee Return to School Plan. Be sure to read through this information so you and your child are informed and know what to expect during hybrid learning. Remember, students in the CVVA will continue to receive their instruction virtually.
Our hybrid learning schedule for next week will be:
- Monday, January 25th & Wednesday, January 27th - Group A attends in person
- Tuesday, January 26th & Thursday, January 28th - Group B attends in person
- Friday, January 29th - Remote Learning (Groups A & B)
Thank you again for your support and understanding during this unique time in education. As I stated before, we are better together and will get through it if we continue to work with one another. Thank you again for partnering with us!
Together We Will Shine!

Shawnee Hot Lunch Order Form
This year we have made some changes to our lunch ordering process. Parents are now able to order hot lunch in advance for their children using our Shawnee Lunch Form. Therefore, teachers will no longer be taking lunch count in class. The link below or button on the right will lead you to a form so you can make lunch choices for the upcoming week. Simply enter your child’s name, select their grade, teacher and track (A or B). Then choose the dates and lunch options your child would like to order.
The link is live now! You may make changes anytime between now and 9:00 AM on Friday, January 29th, then, the link will close. After that, you will not be able to order for the upcoming week as our totals will be submitted.
Students can now order Lunch Plus / Doubles for lunch. Hot lunch still remains free but the cost of doubles will be $1.50. Students will need to preorder doubles just as they do for hot lunch. Lunch Plus / Doubles will be an option on our lunch form for all future dates. Please be sure your child has money on their lunch account. You can deposit money to your child's account using the following link: Send Money to School.
We are excited to offer this easy lunch ordering opportunity. Please be sure to think and plan ahead and order on time so we can ensure we have lunches for all students who need them. Thank you for your help and cooperation.
- Currently ordering lunches for Monday, February 1st - Friday, February 5th
