COYOTE CONNECTIONS
Weekly Updates from Mrs. Cervantes - October 24, 2021
Coyote Ridge Families,
What a great time we had at the Hebron Homecoming Parade this past week! Our CRE PTA did a PHENOMENAL job creating the "Friday Night Lights" float and safely escorting our Coyotes around the parade route. Thank you so much for donating candy and coming out to participate either in the float or in the crowd! Here are some pictures on our Facebook page that several have shared with me: HoCo Parade
There is a lot of information in this newsletter! This week, we have Red Ribbon Week with special dress-up days each day, Stuff the Pantry Food Drive, and CRE Fall Outside Movie Night -- we can't wait!
In this newsletter, you'll also find information on school cafeteria meals, PTA membership and spirit wear information, and calendar updates.
Thank you for your support, and I hope you have a wonderful week!
Red Ribbon Week this week!
This week, October 25th- 29th, is Red Ribbon Week! This is a great week to have conversations with your child about being drug free, bully free, and using the 7 Habits to be a great leader.
Let’s be proactive together and set positive examples for our students every day!
- Monday: Wear Red- Kick off Red Ribbon Week by wearing red!
- Tuesday: Live a Magical Life without drugs- Wear Disney gear!
- Wednesday: I-Tune Out Drugs- Dress like a Rockstar!
- Thursday: Put a “cap” on drugs- Wear a hat to school!
- Friday: Be a good judge of character- Book Character Day! (no weapons or masks)

Coyote Ridge PTA (Parent-Teacher Association)
Parents, we invite you to join the CRE PTA! Along with spirit wear sales will be online membership and registration. I encourage ALL parents/guardians and staff to join, and we will continue to aim for 100% membership. Please remember that your membership dues go to support the school with items and programs that directly and positively impact your child's learning experience at CRE. Your membership also helps us have a collective voice in matters that impact education as a whole. Your membership in no way obligates you to any specific volunteer tasks or participation in meetings, but we'd love to have you! We proudly aim for 100% CRE staff participation, and we'd love to get as many families in as possible. Grandparents, neighbors, and community members are welcome members as well!
To join PTA and/or order CRE Spirit Wear, click on our CRE PTA website below and follow the steps. REMINDER: Membership dues go to support the school with programs directly impacting our students learning experience at CRE. Joining the PTA, in no way obligates you to specific volunteer events or participation in meeting. We would love to have you join, but there is NO obligation.
