The Thursday Post for October 8


Last week kindergarten and first graders had the opportunity to visit the Smoke House and tour a fire truck from the Alpharetta Fire Department.  We learned a lot about fire safety! 
                                       

Many thanks to those of you who braved the the rain and bees to walk to school on International Walk to School Day.

The staff thanks Mr. Rogers for treating us to apps and tea at the Red Hen after school to celebrate our first 9 weeks together as his team! We are thankful for his thoughtfulness and support.

The Thursday Post for September 10

Thank you for your willingness to cooperate in our Green School Initiative. CVES has already saved significant time and money by reducing our paperwork production.  In this transitional time, you will occasionally find flyers sneaking into the Thursday folders due to the need for collecting signatures for  Early Release transportation, in-house field trips, volunteer sign up sheets for Book Fair and PTA committee positions. Please review these announcements and send in the completed forms. In time, we hope to automate as much of these tasks as possible and we thank you for your patience.
The Science Adventure Zone hosts a wide range of science labs which are aligned with the Georgia Professional Standards.  Each lab has been carefully researched and material prepared to fully engage and support students in the acquisition of knowledge. Grade 3 uses owl pellet dissection in order to develop an understanding for animal adaptations, habitats and the food web. If you ever have the chance to volunteer, don't miss out! You can fill in the science gaps from your own childhood! It's fun.
