Corron Mission Statement
Corron is a safe, warm and inviting community where all are valued and empowered. We celebrate growth. Clear evidence highlights the impact we have academically, socially and emotionally.
Smartwatches and Phones
Technology can be a wonderful way to keep in touch with family members. However, smartwatches and phones can become quite disruptive to the learning environment when parents are contacting their children throughout the day (and vice versa). The Elementary School Handbook contains the following language:
Students are extended the privilege of possessing phones/smartwatches on school grounds;
however, their use is limited to after-school dismissal and non-school days. These devices must be in the off position, or not used once the student arrives on campus until the end of the school day.
Teachers will be requesting that students leave their watches and phones in backpacks or another class designated place each day when they enter the classroom so that learning can continue uninterrupted.
Open House
In lieu of Curriculum Night, all D303 elementary schools will be hosting an Open House for families. Corron’s event will be held on Monday, September 12th. Parents and students will be invited in to tour the school and see their classrooms. The event will be held in the evening, with families with last name’s A-L coming from 6:00 - 6:30 and M-Z coming from 6:45 - 7:15. Our staff will share more information as the date approaches.
