Principal's Message
As we transition into Winter Break, our halls have been alive with anticipation and excitement! While this is a time of great joy and comfort for many, Winter Break can also bring challenges and difficulties. Students may feel anxious about a break in routines alongside being thrilled at the prospect of an extended break from schools.
I, for one, am looking forward to the opportunity to spend lazy days with my daughters and my husband, watching movies and snuggling with our cats. At the same time, I'll miss the daily connections and conversations I have with staff, caregivers and students. Whether you are traveling, staying in, celebrating or just enjoying a break from the routine, I wish all of you peace, comfort and health, and I look forward to the promise of a new year at CFT!

Mensaje de la Directora
A medida que hacemos la transición a las vacaciones de invierno, ¡nuestros pasillos han estado llenos de anticipación y emoción! Si bien este es un momento de gran alegría y comodidad para muchos, las vacaciones de invierno también pueden traer desafíos y dificultades. Los estudiantes pueden sentirse ansiosos por una ruptura en las rutinas además de estar emocionados ante la perspectiva de un descanso prolongado de la escuela.
Yo, por mi parte, espero con ansias la oportunidad de pasar días de descanso con mis hijas y mi esposo, viendo películas y acurrucándome con nuestros gatos. Al mismo tiempo, extrañaré las conexiones y conversaciones diarias que tengo con el personal, los cuidadores y los estudiantes. Ya sea que viaje, se quede en casa, celebre o simplemente disfrute de un descanso de la rutina, les deseo a todos paz, comodidad y salud, ¡y espero con ansias la promesa de un nuevo año en CFT!

MESSAGE FROM YOUR PARENT SUPPORT ORGANIZATION (PSO)
What a fun week it was to see so many Wildcats dressed up for spirit week! On Thursday, we had our first ever Art Lit Takeover where ALL students at CFT did art literacy during their specials times. Students learned about King Tut and created King Tut inspired art projects. The older grades also did some hieroglyphic writing. Look for these projects hanging around the school!
Have a great holiday break Wildcats! We will see you in 2023!
