Watch D.O.G.S. Help Wanted!
CCE Dads we need you!
To best meet the guideposts of the Watch D.O.G.S. program, for the 2019-2020 school year we will be revamping our Watch D.O.G.S. system at CCE.
To make this a reality we are in need to a couple dads who would be willing to serve as Lead D.O.G.S. for the 19/20 school year. These dads would lead the charge in many ways - scheduling, running Watch D.O.G.S. activities, communication, etc.
If this is something you would be interested in please contact Julie Woerdehoff.
ScrapsKC USED School Supply Drive is coming to CCE!
With the help of staff and parents, we are collecting used school supplies that last couple of days of school to donate to ScrapsKC.
ScrapsKC is a non-profit creative ruse center that's mission is to care for KC's environment, education and homeless through creative reuse. During our supply drive, we will not only keep supplies out of our landfills, ScrapsKC will also clean, re-purpose and redistribute these materials for free to teachers in the metro area.
Brenda Mott, the executive director of ScrapsKC says the following:
“We are so thankful for your support and dedication to our school supply drive. This year we are able to give the materials you restored to 165 teachers throughout the metro area. If we calculate the number of teachers served by approximately 25 children per class, that means you have touched 4,125 children who wouldn’t have the necessary tools to succeed in school. The thought of reaching this many kids is astounding as well as heartwarming. ScrapsKC just couldn’t do it with out you.”
Q&As
Does my child have to donate? No. They can donate as little or as much as they want.
Can I opt out of this program? You may opt out of this program by letting your teacher know.
What are the collection dates: The last 3 days of school.
How can I help? You can volunteer to sort the supplies by categories those last few days or you could help drive the supplies down to ScrapsKC on Friday, May 31st. Here is a link to sign up to help! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0d4baea728a20-endofyear
Lunch Accounts
Please ensure that your child has enough funds in his/her account to cover the remaining school year breakfast & lunch purchases. Your student will still be able to charge up to three meals (breakfast and/or lunch). However, we ask that those charges be paid promptly and before the last day of attendance. There are only 13 serving days left!!
