UPCOMING PARENT / TEACHER / STUDENT LEARNING CONFERENCES
If you have not registered a time with your child’s teacher for either the evening of November 23 (between 4:30 and 8:00) or the daytime on November 24 (between 10:30 and 2:00), please do so as soon as possible through your MyCBE/PowerSchool account. (Detailed instructions on how to do this are available in the My School ConferencesMy School Conferences document. Please use a computer or laptop, not a Smart phone to access your MyCBE account if you are having difficulties.)
**Each conference 15-minutes is by appointment only. Please strive to make a time on one of these two days work. We ask that you do not ask teachers to meet different days in order to honor the other school and family commitments that teachers have.
LIBRARY BOOKS
Students are able to take books home from our Learning Commons. Just a friendly reminder that students must return their library book each week for either renewal or return. Our collection is not very big and regular returns allow all students to find new content each week. We will be sending overdue notices home to families whose children have late books that we have been unsuccessful getting back. Please help children look around to find their signed out books. Just a reminder that lost or damaged library books must be paid for. Mrs. Barrowcliff has begun to send invoices home indicating the cost of the books. Please help us get all books back each week so all students can enjoy them and there is always lots of variety to choose from. Thanks for your cooperation!
