If you need to deliver something to your child during the school day, you or your designee will need to sign in as a visitor in the school office and take these items to your child during his/her recess or lunchtime only. Also, please make sure to coordinate how your child gets home after school prior to arriving to school. For everyone’s safety, the office will not be responsible for sending messages to students about after school pick up arrangements.

Good Afternoon 4th – 6th Grade Families,
Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth grade classes will be teaching Adolescent Growth Education (A.G.E.)
during the upcoming third or fourth quarter.
The purpose of this program is to provide students with information about:
Fourth Grade: bullying, the social, emotional, and physical changes of puberty, and menstruation.
Fifth Grade: developing self-esteem, being clear with friends through decision-making, boundaries
(harassment and abuse), and changes that occur during puberty.
Sixth Grade: changes in adolescent bodies which occur during puberty, the reproductive systems, and
boundaries.
The knowledge acquired from A.G.E. will allow children to receive age-appropriate information regarding adolescence while they develop the confidence and self-respect necessary to choose a healthy lifestyle.
While your child learns A.G.E., you are encouraged to set aside a special time to discuss these important
topics with your child at home.
Parents/Caregivers will be invited to preview the A.G.E. curriculum and videos at District-hosted Parent
Preview Nights. Parent Preview Nights will be held online on the following dates:
Fourth Grade: Tuesday, January 30th from 6:00 -7:30 pm
Fifth Grade: Wednesday, January 31st from 6:00-7:30 pm
Sixth Grade: Thursday, February 1st from 6:00-7:30 pm
Links to the meetings will be available on the CVESD website: www.cvesd.org
Happy Monday! We wanted to pass along this reminder for rainy day dismissal.
TK & Kindergarten: Bus riders will be walked down to the lunch area and wait either at the tables or in the MPR depending on the conditions. All other transitional kindergartners and kindergartners will be picked up directly from their classrooms. We will open the Kinder gate at approximately 2:50 to allow parents to head toward their child’s classroom.
First through Sixth: Bus riders will be walked down, or dismissed to the lunch area, and wait either at the tables or in the MPR depending on the conditions. Students that walk home, or that are picked up by car, will be dismissed from their classroom at 3:15. If you are picking up your child in person we will open the gates between 3:10 and 3:15 for you to head to their classroom. At 3:25, all students not picked up will be brought to the front office.
Thank you,
Wolf Canyon Team
