Russell Fair Virtual Book Fair Update:  Our virtual Book Fair results are in!  Thanks to generous support from Cordova Bay families, we were able to raise $695.00 for the Cordova Bay Learning Commons.  Russell Books has graciously topped up our total with an additional $500 of store credit so we now have $1195 to spend on new books for students in 2021-2022.  Huge thanks and gratitude to Russell Books and all the families who contributed to this fundraiser!  Mrs. Bales & Ms. Jenkins

This Friday is the Last Freezy Friday!  (In Support of the Dirty Wall Project in Mumbai, India): 

To our wonderful Cordova Bay Community,

Thank you for your support of our fundraiser for the Taki Naki community in Mumbai.  Cindy and Todd, of the Dirty Wall Project, are so very grateful, as are all the families who live in the slum.  Your generosity is touching.  This is the last week to donate / buy freezies.  Please make sure your child knows if you are donating your money or would like change.  Consider buying freezies for the whole family to cool down in this summer heat.  

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.  ❤️

With gratitude,  Ms. Challinor

Medical Letters Home:  Letters (with forms to complete over the summer) recently were sent home for children on our Medical Alert list.  Parents are asked to please pickup any medication that your child has at the school office on the last day of school.  Thank you!

Wanting to Volunteer Next Year for Your Child’s Class?  Volunteers are required to complete a Criminal Record Check (CRC) every 3 years and it can take 3-4 weeks to process.  Visit the District webpage on how to complete a CRC to have this completed over the summer and in place for September. 

PAC Online School Supply Ordering for 2021-22 is Now Open:  Online ordering is now OPEN for ordering School Supplies for the 2021-22 school year.  Monk Office provides 10% of the online sales of school supply kits to our school Parent Advisory Committee (PAC) who use those funds to support initiatives at school!   If you wish, families can order and pay online for their child’s school supplies and they will be delivered to school in early September.  Deadline for ordering supplies that will be delivered to the school is July 18th.  You can order online after July 18th, but will need to pick up the items from one of Monk Office store locations.  See attached PDF for more information.
