Building Readers Family Night - This WEDNESDAY
Please join us on Wednesday night, January 24, 2024, for an evening filled with fun and engaging activities that will entertain and educate everyone. Learn about the "tools" that our students are taught to use to become proficient readers and writers. Take home materials that will help you support your child while reading at home. Teachers from across the school will be leading groups through the evening. This event is made possible through Title 1 funding.
Cookies, Coffee, and Curriculum with the Bohemia Manor Feeder Principals
As we enter into the yearly budget season for both CCPS and Cecil County, it is important for our families to understand the effect both county and CCPS budget decisions will have on your child's classroom. In this session, we will share how CCPS develops classroom learning expectations for all students based on state curriculum from Mr. Jim Zimmer, Instructional Coordinator for Social Studies at CCPS. We will also share how differences in funding impact the programs that your child(ren) has access to in each school. Please join us! Light refreshments will be served.
If you have trouble with the RSVP or need help to translate the RSVP form, please call the main office at 410-275-1000.
Student Led Conferences ~ 2/2/2024
Join us on February 2nd for our end of semester Student Led Conferences. Students across the building have been working hard all year and are excited to share with you their accomplishments and to show you how they use their AVID binders to organize their materials and school work. Please make sure to let us know if you are able to join us for the morning. Volunteers from the Cecilton Lions Club and Town Hall will be here to meet with children whose family members are unable to attend. This ensures that all students have a dedicated time to share their success. Copies of the RSVP were sent home las week and are available in both English and Spanish at the download below. We hope to see all of our families on the 2nd!
