CPS will be closed on Monday, September 4th, in honor of the Labor Day holiday.
Labor Day pays tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers. It was created by the labor movement in the late 19th century and became a federal holiday in 1894. This weekend, as we spend time with our families and friends, celebrate the value of an honest day’s work, the people who built America, and our nation’s advancements because of the American labor force.

‼ REMINDER - EARLY RELEASE = PLC MEETINGS FOR TEACHERS
📅 Begins August 25th
Dismissal
🕑Elementary- 2:00p
🕝Secondary - 2:30p
Early release for our kids means meeting time for our teachers. This time is excellent for lesson planning, district meetings, and sharing ideas with our teacher friends across the district.
Professional learning communities (PLCs) are a collaborative approach to professional development. Small groups of educators meet regularly to explore new concepts, share expertise and insights from their teaching experiences, and engage in collective problem-solving.
We are lucky we have this time and the technology to meet with teachers from all over the district to maximize our time together.

Don't forget, Jostens will be at Westside Friday, August 25th!
Coach Faulconer's fit friends had a blast in PE as they played an introduction hot potato! These 1st grade students are prepped and ready for a great time in their specials.
