CORE TK-8 Fall Class Requests Begin August 9th
As we look forward to the next academic school year, we are excited to offer a variety of center classes for all grade bands. We want to be sure the schedule is as accurate as possible before we begin student sign-ups. With this in mind, we have decided that it is in the best interest of our students to open our TK-8 class request window in August. Current 20-21 students will have priority signing-up for classes. The TK-8 Class Request Window will open August 9th- 13th, 2021. Thanks for your patience and understanding. A draft of the class schedule will be available during the first week in August.
If you have any questions about classes, please feel free to email me at kbarker@corebutte.org.

Know the Signs | SuicideIsPreventable.org
Sometimes we walk alongside others' pain without understanding the depth of their burden. When there is a concern that someone may be considering ending his or her life, it is important to recognize the warning signs, communicate with clarity and care, and serve as a bridge to resources. During the month of May, which recognizes Mental Health Awareness, you are especially encouraged to visit SuicideIsPreventable.org to discover how to thoughtfully intervene for the sake of preserving life.
