Parental  Participation in School Events
We understand the importance of the home-to-school connection. This year our goal is to increase the number of families who participate in events at school. We are asking if you attend an event at Currier, that you fill out this brief survey.  We are always open to your feedback and suggestions for future community events. 

Open  &  Honest Communication
We believe that open and honest communication is essential to build a partnership of trust. We will always make ourselves available to you. We are available by phone, email, or you can call the office to set up an appointment.  Our contact information is below.

Currier Cash Drawing
On Friday, we had our 2nd Currier Cash drawing! Students have been working hard to earn Currier Cash for following one of our 5 core values (Respect, Responsibility, Orderly Transitions, Positive Interactions, and Readiness to Learn. You can see an example of our values by location if you click HERE.  Ask your child to share with you how many Currier Cash they have earned so far! 

Arrival/Dismissal Update
Your child's safety and well-being continue to be a priority to us.  We appreciate all the feedback from our most recent parent pick-up/drop-off procedures survey. Until we can develop a comprehensive plan, we will keep the system the same.  Please remember to call the office if you are changing your child's mode of transportation, especially if they ride the bus.
