Cape Cod Tech's December Update
December Update- 12/19/2021
Good evening Cape Cod Tech Community,
Please RSVP below if you are interested in attending.
I also want to mention that on Thursday, Dec. 23rd, students will be dismissed around 12:30. We will be holding our annual Shop Parties beginning at 11 am. After the parties and when clean-up is complete, students will be dismissed. Students who do not want to participate in the parties will be offered lunch and a quiet library to read, play board games, and do other activities.
I look forward to seeing parents and guardians on Tuesday morning.
Thank you,
Mr. Terranova

December 6th Update Below
Good afternoon everyone,
As the weather gets colder, students will need to be prepared. I want to remind everyone that technical areas do work outside, so students need to have proper attire for these conditions.
This month we have several events that are essential for our parents to attend. Please see information below to help you keep informed.
Virtual Parent-Teacher Night is Thursday, December 16th, 5:30-8 pm. This is a fantastic opportunity for parents/ guardians to speak with their student's teachers. Last year we did this virtually and had more parent participation than ever before. Parent Council suggested that we keep this as a virtual event as it is easier for parents to participate. Parents/guardians whose students had any grades lower than a "C" on their Trimester 1 report card must attend Parent-Teacher Conferences. All parents are invited and encouraged to attend. Trimester 1 Report Cards will be mailed later this week. This will allow you to understand exactly why your student is not meeting the grade in their class and how you can support him/her.

If your student made the honor roll, we will be honoring your student after the New Year. It may not be exactly like our Honors Breakfasts prior to COVID, but we will take time to celebrate our hardworking students.
I want to remind parents that we have early dismissals at 12:35 on Monday, December 6th and 1:35 on Wednesday, December 15th. These are scheduled Professional Development Days for teachers.
Parents, we use SchoolBrains for our Student Recordkeeping. This system allows parents to review up-to-date grading, attendance, and other information that will help you support your student. If you do not have access, please contact us at assistance@capetech.us
I have included a calendar for you so that you can prepare for upcoming events and evenings, just click the link below.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at: bterranova@capetech.us or at (508)432-4500 ext 2000.
Thank you,
Mr. Terranova
