Regular schedule (B track on campus)
Hi CAV Families,
We had a great first week back! I loved seeing all the kids back on campus and using our new building. This morning is our first day of C'lectives and Optional 7/8 grade classes.
We have revised our pick-up procedures as we problem solved last week. It took a lot of revamping to get a plan in place. I will be revising our map and will add it below this afternoon and post it on Schoology. I think we have a great plan to keep the line moving and plenty of room for the kids to wait.
I hope you are settling in and ready for another week. I wish you a productive and fun learning week.
Take care,
Kirstin Lasto, CAV Principal
9-12PM -A/B
12-1PM - C TRACK

The Parent Volunteer Program was established to connect parents’ skills, passion, and abilities to their school community. Parent volunteers are the backbone of The Classical Academy program, and our parents’ leadership and talents are truly what make our school successful! You can find the link to log your volunteer hours in the weekly school updates (look for the ‘volunteer’ icon at the top of the newsletter). Please enter all the information correctly so that your hours are applied to the correct category/event.
As the year progresses, the Parent Volunteer Coordinator may email you with links to sign up for events that may need help as well as any needed donations. Parents are always welcome to volunteer where they would like and do not need to wait to be invited to help. Our parents are always welcome on campus and in the classroom!
