PLANNING FOR NEXT YEAR.....
If your family will NOT be returning to Southview Elementary for the 2023-2024 school year, please fill out the following survey: Click here
The time of year has come to start planning for the 2023-2024 school year. It hardly seems possible! One important piece of our planning for the next school year is the determination of class lists. The teachers work long and hard to prepare balanced class lists. Your child’s teacher knows your child well and will work hard to place your child where he/she will be the most successful. Please know that we do not accept requests for specific teachers. For parents who believe that their child may have specific needs that the school staff may not be aware of, please click on the link to fill out a survey: Student Input Form

CAHOOTS math and language arts in one book … a great value!
Parents, Community Education is pleased to again be offering CAHOOTS, a K-5 summer math and language arts correspondence workbook program.
The program is portable, flexible and designed to closely match our district curriculum through an engaging and reflective approach to learning. After completing each lesson and checking answers online, students complete an assignment reflection and send to a CAHOOTS Buddy who will send a written response back.
You will receive a letter which includes enrollment instructions the week of February 27. Cost is $44. Final registration is due March 31.
Sample workbook pages can be viewed at ce.district196.org/enrichyouth.
It is recommended students work on the grade level they will be entering in the fall (i.e. 1st grade is a review of kindergarten), to review and reinforce skills learned during the school year. Please discuss with your child’s teacher, if you feel another level may be more suitable.
CAHOOTS should not be considered a replacement for participating in summer school, if your child qualifies.
CAHOOTS is not intended to replace regular reading for enjoyment or math activities that strengthen your child’s fluency and love for math.
