Parent University: “It Starts with Me” 

By: Vicky Chehebar (CNG Parent)

In the hustle of daily life, it's easy to overlook the opportunities for personal growth and healing that parenting presents. We'll explore the transformations inherent in the role of parenthood, guiding you to embrace the challenges, foster your own growth, and empower your child to confidently forge their unique path.

๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Date: Tuesday, March 5th
๐Ÿ•’ Time: 7:30-8:30am
๐Ÿ“ Location: MPR (Elementary Building)

NOTE: Parent Universities are hybrid (Zoom and in person). This is the Zoom LINK. (Meeting ID: 929 9349 4742  and Access Code: : 347875).

*Please note there is NO available parking on campus, so please plan accordingly to make the necessary arrangements in order to arrive to school.

Smart Watches

This is a reminder that smartwatches are not allowed in Primary School. Starting next week, if students are found wearing them, they will be confiscated, and parents will have to pick them up in the PS office.

Schedule

Transportation Changes – Bus and Gate Passes

We would like to remind our ES/PS community of our policy of no transportation changes after 11:00 AM.  This policy exists to ensure child safety.  Calls that come in with transportation changes later in the day can result in confusion for the child and the teacher and potentially lead to students accidentally going home the wrong way.  The only exception to this policy will be last minute doctor appointments or plan changes that result in a child going home as usual (such as a cancelled playdate or activity).

Sick Students

We understand that you want the best for your children's education, and we share that commitment. However, it is crucial that we all play a role in maintaining a safe learning environment, especially when it comes to the health of our students. By keeping sick students at home, you not only protect their health but also prevent the potential spread of illnesses to other students and school staff. We are committed to providing a safe and healthy learning environment for everyone, and your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated. Please take a look at CNG´s guidelines for keeping sick children home from school:
