Wolf Canyon – Home of the Timberwolves

Hello Timberwolves,

We are now in week 2 of 10 of Q3! We look forward an excellent quarter and, as always, let’s model excellence and The Timberwolf Way showing safety, respect, and responsibility at Wolf Canyon. 

Character Trait for January: FOCUS.

Today, we celebrate and honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day. It is both an honor and a responsibility to reflect on the profound impact of a visionary leader who dedicated his life to a pursuit of justice and equality that transcends generations.  Dr. King’s dream was deeply rooted in the belief that every individual, regardless of race or background, should be granted the same opportunities, rights, and respect. He fought tirelessly and peacefully for civil rights, inspired countless others to join the Civil Rights Movement, and made significant strides towards a more inclusive and equitable society. In celebrating this MLK Day, let us strive to counter racism and discrimination by treating every person we encounter with kindness, dignity, and empathy.

Hello Wolf Canyon Families,

As we prepare to return to school for quarter 3, we wanted to share some important visitor and safety measures that will go into effect on Tuesday, January 14, 2025.  These changes are happening at Wolf Canyon and across CVESD to keep our school campuses more secure.  These changes will be in effect on school days from “bell-to-bell”, meaning 8:45am-3:15pm. Our goal is to sustain a welcoming environment, while ensuring the safety of all our students and staff during school hours. 

Key Updates:

• After the morning bell rings at 8:45am, families will need to make their way towards the exit. All individuals on campus after 8:45am must be authorized and checked in with the office with valid state-issued ID. For Friday Blacktop assemblies, families will exit campus after the assembly.

• Parents and caregivers will not be allowed to go directly to classrooms to pick up students for early dismissals. Please plan accordingly, to allow adequate time to pick your student up. In addition to this, the gates will no longer be opened prior to 3:15pm for those picking up at dismissal. 

• Authorized visitors will be required to sign in through the Raptor system in the main office with a valid state-issued ID. Visitors must wear a sticker or badge showing they have registered in front office. Unauthorized visitors will be directed towards the main office by staff. 

We appreciate your understanding as Wolf Canyon and our school district work towards keeping our school safe.

Thank you,

Wolf Canyon Administration
