Top Cycle Tuesday
Our next Top Cycle Tuesday is fast approaching! It is this coming Tuesday, February 14th. Start clipping your Box Tops and send them to school. Remember that all classrooms that collect 100 Box Tops will earn an extra recess!
Cumberland Road Elementary is currently ranked in the Top 20 out of over 500 area Indianapolis schools. Keep up the great job clipping those Box Tops, CRES!
Classroom CRES Fest Baskets
CRES Fest will be here before we know it, and a lot of great planning has already begun. Be on the lookout for an email from your room parents in the next couple of weeks. They will be communicating your child’s classroom auction basket theme and sharing ways for you to get involved!
Next Open Forum Meeting
The next PTO Open Forum meeting will be held on Tuesday, March 7th at 7:00 p.m.! We hope to see you there! Mark your calendars to attend – free childcare will be provided by the YMCA.
