Copeland Hoofbeat
Thursday, April 11
From the Principal
Dear Copeland Families,
I love our Copeland traditions! Our 4th graders really showed their creative sides at our Adjective Hat Parade last week. Our Colts are the best.
On April 17th all of our Colts will participate in our Color Run. This is our largest fundraiser of the year, and we cannot thank you enough for your support. Students will run during their regular large group times. Everyone is welcome to come out and enjoy the fun. We are raising money for new playground equipment for all students to enjoy.
We will have a Book Character Parade for our Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade students on April 18th at 8:30 a.m. Please send in your RSVPs if you plan to attend. We are looking forward to seeing all of the great character costumes. April 19th is a staff and student holiday.
We have completed round one of our STAAR testing. I am confident that our students did well. Our last round of STAAR testing will take place on May 13th, 14th, and 15th when our 3rd and 4th grade students will be taking their Math and Reading tests and our 5th grade students will be taking their Science test. Our 5th graders will also have an opportunity to retest on those dates if they do not pass the first administration. As always, we will have no visitors on those three days. Thank you for understanding.
Our lost and found is overflowing again! We will place all items on the stage in the cafeteria next week (April 15-18). Please remind your child to look during their lunch times for lost items. You may come to school as well to take a look. All items not claimed will be donated at the end of the school day on Thursday, April 18th.
We are all so excited for our Spring Book Fair (April 22nd – 26th). We hope you will join us for family night on Tuesday, April 23rd. Pre K/Kindergarten pre-registration will be April 17th. If you cannot make it on April 17th, you may make an appointment with our registrar, Mrs. Alfaro, for any day after April 17th to pre-register any new Pre K or Kindergarten students.
Choral Festival will be held at the Berry Center on April 25th . There are so many talented CFISD students performing there. That event is a must see for all!
