Thank You!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff, students and families for a great 5 months of school. We have had so many fantastic things happening it would be impossible to make a list that would honor all the amazing learning that has taken place. We are looking forward to continuing our learning journey in 2020. Wishing everyone the best. 

Winter Celebration of Learning

Winter Celebration of Learning

Hello Cappy Smart Families,

As many of you know, each of our grades host an event (such as Remembrance Day) or a “celebration of learning” assembly at some time throughout the year. December will be a sharing event around some of the work being done in our music classes. While this is NOT a formal concert, parents are welcome to join us to hear what the students have been working on.

To make sure that we are able to include all of our Kindergarten students, we are having two assemblies, the music will be the same at both.

Wednesday Dec 18 - 8:30-9:20 

Thursday Dec 19 - 1:00-1:50

If you will be joining us, please let your child’s teacher know so that we can have enough chairs available.

Traffic Concerns and Safety

Hello Cappy Smart Families,

We have had an increasing number of parents and community members come to us to discuss unsafe choices that are occurring in front of the school. The most frequent concern is parents and students j-walking (crossing the road when not in a crosswalk).

This choice creates significant safety concerns for both our students and their parents. We have witnessed several incidents in the past few weeks where children have been narrowly missed by cars driving down the street.

We want to make you aware that staff are outside and on supervision starting at 8:00 am. This means that students are safe and supervised on the east side of the school by the playground.  Please help us out by not waiting in your vehicle with your child until 8:15 am. Please drop off your children quickly and then pull away to allow other parents to do the same. If the weather is very cold, we open the doors and allow students into the building early to keep warm.

We work hard to model and teach safe choices with our students. Please support the safety of your children by also modeling safe choices. Please use the crosswalks on either side of the school property or park your vehicle on the far side of the school playground where students can come to your vehicle without crossing the street.

Please help teach our children safe behavior by choosing safety over convenience, every day.

Thank you,

Erin Bennett
