Dear Parents and Guardians,
The mission of Alabaster City Schools is to partner with families and the community to inspire and prepare graduates to be responsible and productive champions of their future.
Thank you for your support of our February activities. We raised $4,868.54 during our coin drive for the playground. We had 100 families attend our first STEAM Night. It was incredible! Our first grade students did an outstanding performance of "It's a Hit," musical. Please visit our website at http://cves.alabasterschools.org/?PageName=LatestNews&Section=Spotlight&ItemID=54382&ISrc=School&Itype=Spotlight&SchoolID=5591 to view pictures of the 6:00 performance. We will post pictures periodically on our website under the section "Spotlight."
I am so excited about the next few weeks at CVES. Please join us for Coffee with the Counselors on March 7th and 9th at 8:30 am. We will discuss ACT Aspire testing and strategies to help your child succeed in school.
I would like to thank you for your continuous support and share some things we are excited about at CVES:
