General Information:
Please see below for important information related to the Elementary CVVA.
HOST School = the building assignment of a child’s CVVA teacher
HOME School = the school where a child is registered
Other Information:
Please understand that there are families who are upset that their child has temporarily “left” their home school and were placed at a HOST school. HOST schools may have a different start/end time and are unfamiliar to them. Please focus on building positive relationships with all families and be sure to make them feel welcome in the CVVA.
Please understand that families with multiple children in the CVVA may have different start/end times (early/late start) in the CVVA. This occurred due to scheduling constraints and the size of our district. In some situations, siblings are on different schedules. Please be flexible and accommodating to work with families to ensure students do not miss what is essential.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Anthony Lewis or your HOST building administrator.
