…almost!

 

June 1, 2023

 

Dear Cedar Mountain Families,

 

And just like that the school year is coming to an end! With the busyness of this past Memorial Day weekend and the end of the school year, it sometimes feels challenging to find the time to simply breathe and think. And this is exactly what is needed and helpful. The last day of school is not too far away, rather than seeing it as the finish line, let’s slow it down a bit, reflect, articulate some goals, and show kindness and gratitude for all this year has given us.

 

Dates to keep in mind…

  • Thursday, June 15th through Thursday June 22nd are early dismissal days.
  • Monday, June 19th Vernon Schools are CLOSED for Juneteenth.
  • Thursday, June 22nd is the last day of school.

 

The BOGO (Buy One Get One, of equal or lesser value, FREE) Book Fair is Monday, June 5th from 4-6 pm. And, just a reminder, to please hand in any outstanding library books at this time, as notices will be going out. 

 

Looking back on May…

 

A happy and healthy summer to all our Cedar Mountain families! 

 

Sincerely,

Kristin Gudenkauf

Principal

Dear Cedar Mountain Families,

 

Do you believe it is May already?! We are hoping that the warmer spring weather is on the way to stay, but in the meantime, please remember that we do go outside everyday so please dress appropriately.

 

There are eight weeks left of the school year and we are still learning and making the most of the time that we have left. The inclination might be to give up and give in…to coast. But our teachers have great ideas for motivating learning right down to the very last day of school!

 

What better way to start the month than with Teacher Appreciation Week May 8th – May 12th!

Two…Four…Six…Eight…Who do we appreciate?! All of our fabulous teachers!! Thank you for all you do, day in and day out!

 

 

There is an SCA meeting Thursday, May 4th at 9:45 in the Cedar Mountain Cafeteria. It’s not too late to get involved!

 

The SCA is hosting a Mom & Pop shop for all students during the school day Monday, May 8th through Wednesday, May 10th for all classes. A memo will be sent home the week prior.

 

Friday, May 12, 2023 there is a District-Wide “Spirit Day” for Staff & Students. Wear your favorite Tie Dye attire and bring $1 in an envelope marked SCA. All donations will go to the Artstanding Program.
