From the Principal
Dear Copeland Families,
Hard to believe it is already fall! Now if the weather would only cooperate... I am sure looking forward to our first cool front and some cooler days. Speaking of weather, thanks so much for your patience with us and our rainy day processes. We have to make a decision about 40 minutes before we actually begin the process of dismissal, and it is really hard with our unpredictable Houston weather to get it right all the time. Please know that we always have the safety of our staff and students in the forefront of our decision making.
It was so great seeing so many of you for our Open Houses. The students were excited to show off their hard work. Our first progress reports for the school year will be coming home on Monday, October 1st, and parent conferences will be Monday, October 8th. Please take advantage of this opportunity to come and hear about all the wonderful things your children are doing here at Copeland.
Our Big Kahuna fundraiser is in full swing, and our students are excited about collecting the dinos! We have two major fundraisers each year, and this is our major fundraiser for fall. We have a fundraising committee comprised of teachers and PTO board members, and they will be meeting this week. We love getting input to be sure that our fundraising efforts benefit all our Colts. Online orders for the Big Kahuna will close on October 9th. Thanks so much for your support of our fundraisers!
Mark your calendars for our field days! Kindergarten and 3rd grade will have field days on Wednesday, October 17th, 2nd and 4th grade will have field days on Thursday, October 18th, and 1st and 5th grade will have field days on Friday, October 19th. Please purchase your field day shirts by Sunday, September 30th via school cash online. We are hoping for fabulous weather again. It is such fun for all, and we would love to have you join us.
