Hi Aspen Families!

2022-2023 Opt-In Communication for CVUSD Advisory Council/Committee Updates
In CVUSD, parent/guardian engagement and participation is a top priority! Participation is encouraged through many organizations and activities. Several CVUSD Advisory Councils/Committees that support parent/guardian participation are listed below, with the OPTION for you to select any or all to receive communications from the school’s identified parent/guardian representative and/or from school site administration. This communication would provide information and updates to you related to the Advisory Council/Committee meetings. Please select the Council(s)/Committee(s) that you would like to receive information and updates on, approximately monthly. If you have students at multiple school sites, please submit the form for each school. Additionally, if you opted-in last year, please plan to do so annually. Importantly, should you choose to opt-in to receiving these updates, the parent/guardian representative for the Advisory Council(s)/Committees(s) and/or the administration will not share your email address with others. You also have the ability to opt-out at any time in the event you no longer wish to receive the Advisory Council/Committee information.
If you have any questions in this regard, please contact Dr. Craven at scraven@conejousd.org.
To access the Advisory Council/Committee Opt-In Form, please use this LINK.
Trex Plastic Film Recycling Challenge
Who’s up for a challenge?? Aspen is joining the nationwide Trex Plastic Film Recycling Challenge to see which elementary school in the Western region can recycle the most plastic film through April 22, 2023 (Earth Day)! You can help our school win a high-quality recycled composite bench and/or a cash prize by dropping off CLEAN and DRY plastic film in the designated bin located in the Aspen courtyard. See the attached flyers for details regarding what can be included in the bins.
Please spread the word to your neighbors and local businesses (dry cleaners, restaurants, moving companies, etc.) who may be interested in supporting Aspen’s environmental campaign! #TrexRecyclingChallenge #Recycle2Win
