Reminders for Students & Families
Our school is still accepting donations for Caleb's Courage this week in the form of a silver collection. All money that is collected at our school will be donated to Caleb's Courage.
Students and families are reminded that students are only permitted to drink water throughout the instructional day in their classes. No other drinks (e.g. sports drinks, juices, energy drinks, coffee/tea shop drinks, etc.) are permitted in classrooms.
Students are encouraged to bring a refillable water bottle to school as we have several bottle filling stations located throughout the school for students and staff.
As the weather has turned colder, students and families are reminded that students should be dressed and prepared for the weather each day as students are expected to be outside in the morning, at lunch and after school (unless they are inside due to inclement weather). As our weather can be unpredictable, students can store any additional items they need in their assigned locker in case they require it.
Bus Planner Delays App
Just a friendly reminder that bussing notifications are shared via the Bus Planner Delays App, and are no longer sent to entire school communities via text/SMS. You can download the app here: Apple App Store - Delays or Google Play Store - Delays. Instructions on setting up the app can be found here: Bus Planner Delays - How-to Video
For anyone who does not subscribe to Bus Planner Delays App, notifications are also posted on the CBVRCE website here. (From the CBVRCE homepage, click on “Bus Alerts” at the top right).
