Principal's Corner
This year the Cook/Mason PTO agreed to pay for the professional video services from VidCam for our concerts and it has been so wonderful! I have heard from many of you how much you appreciate this gesture. This wouldn't be possible without all of the family support our PTO receives throughout the year so thanks to PTO AND to all of our supporters!
On Friday of this week (May 5th) you will be receiving an email asking about your plans for next year and for infomation you'd like us to know about your child as we begin thinking about classroom placement for the 2023-2024 schoo year. Please be on the lookout for the email titled Criteria for Placement Form!
Thank you to everyone who filled out the Parent Survey! We received a lot of good feedback that we will use to make our school even better! Your feedback is appreciated!
As always, if you have any concerns or questions please reach out to us! We are your partners in education and always here to help!
Sincerly,
Tia Dale, Cook Elementary School Principal

Cook and Mason Families,

We have our final PTO meeting of the year on May 8th at 6pm, in the Mason Community Room. This meeting will be held in person only due to elections. Please join us to cast your vote for next year's board, review this year's events, and share thoughts and ideas for next year. We have moved the meeting time back to hopefully accommodate more schedules. Child care, pizza, and dessert will be provided.
Please find the links below for the following:
Signup Genius- For Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week, we are looking for donations for several things we have planned for the staff.
Leave a special note for a staff member- These will be printed out and displayed in the school during Appreciation week.
Parent Survey- Please take a few moments to fill out our parent survey. This will help us in planning events for next year. We are always looking for ways to improve and grow our events!
