Mrs. Walters' News
Happy Spring Break! I hope the next week is restful and fun for all! Don't forget to read!
Last Friday our students and families enjoyed our annual school carnival at Cherry Creek. Thank you to our PTO members and volunteers who worked so hard to make this a great event.
In the last couple of weeks, I've had several parents raise concerns about our parking lot, specifically the morning drop off. Please be sure to prepare your child to exit your vehicle as quickly as possible (gear, kisses and hugs, unbuckling, etc.). If all drop off parents pull as far forward along the sidewalk as possible, many more children could exit the cars efficiently and keep the line moving.
There is a lot of information regarding upcoming events and experiences below- don't forget to keep reading!
