Staff Favorite Things - Appreciation Week in March
World's Finest Chocolate Fundraiser
We are two weeks into our fundraiser and have already had a huge response from the community! We have already sold more than 425 boxes, which is fantastic!
Our fundraiser will be through March 17th. All money will be due on March 17th by noon. Please remember we are unable to accept unsold chocolate bars, if you accept a box you are responsible for the $60. We are hoping to raise $10,000 that will go towards technology, field trips and staff appreciation.
Students earn lots of different prizes based on sales, which are listed in the flyer. In addition, the top ten students who sell the most win a pizza party and the top 5 can create a human sundae on Mrs. Jordan, Mrs. Costa, Mr. Gardner, Mr. Bryan and Ms. Fryer! Thank you for your amazing support of Cherry Drive!

Clothes Donations for Health Office
The Health Office is in need of clothes for boys, such as pants in sizes 6-10 and shirts. If you are able to donate clothes, please bring the clothes into the office. Any donation is appreciated!
Parents, if your child needs to borrow clothes from the Health Office, please return the clothes to the office, cleaned, as soon as possible. If your child has borrowed clothes from the Health Office recently, please return the clothes that were given to your child.
CMAS Testing Schedule
Please ensure your child gets a good night of sleep before the tests, eats a healthy breakfast (or gets breakfast at school), and is at school on time for testing days. Once testing begins in class, any student who arrives late cannot join their class and will have to make up testing during other times of the day. Students have been working extremely hard all year and we simply want them to try their best and take their time.
Please see the schedule below to ensure your child is in attendance and appointments/other events are scheduled around these times.
