March 5th Edition - Kindness Rocks!
We Appreciate Parent Volunteers
Thank you to the countless parents who helped on Properties Day in 1st grade. These moms and dads added dye to milk, mixed slime, tie-dyed coffee filters, and more. Basically, they got messy with kids … and our students loved every minute of it! Thank you for volunteering!

Your Child is Absent? Email Us
The Compulsory Attendance Law in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania requires that an absence excuse submitted by the parent or guardian be on file for every day of the student’s absence.
How do I notify the school that my child is absent? The most efficient way to excuse an absence is to email us directly at gmnattend@cbsd.org within 3 days of the absence.
