CNG Primary School CCN: #18 - DECEMBER 13, 2024

 

PS Book Drive

This holiday season, we are excited to announce that Primary School will be having a Book Drive. The goal is to ensure that children who do not have access to books, have the opportunity to get one during the Holidays and feel the warmth of this special time of year, spreading joy and the gift of reading to those who need it most.

Students can bring in new or used books (both accepted as long as they are in good condition). While we encourage books in Spanish, books in English will be accepted too! Books can be dropped off in a designated box in their homeroom classroom until December 18th.

Encourage your child to participate and donate books that can inspire and brighten someone’s holiday. Every book counts, and together we can make a difference in these children’s lives.

Thank you for your support and generosity!

Lost & Found

• Please take a moment to look at the Lost & Found Repository for any misplaced items.

• There are many lunch boxes, shoes, bags, and over 110 water bottles!

• If you identify something belonging to your child, email Laura at the Reception Desk (lauram.torres@cng.edu) with the item description and your student's name and grade, and she will help coordinate pickup.

VERY IMPORTANT: Please mark all your child's belongings with their name; it's the only way lost items can be returned to students.
