Capri’s Parent Learning Community - A1 8:15 a.m.
One of the most important decision-making groups at Capri is our elected School Site Council. The Council is composed of parent and community members and representatives from the school’s staff.
The Council reviews the school plan annually, establishes a budget, makes modifications as necessary, and assists in the evaluation of the school’s programs. Members are elected by the groups that they represent. Parent and community representatives are elected for a two-year term and may stand for re-election upon the completion of each term. If you are interested in running for the Council, please submit your name to the front office by Friday, August 31. The voting ballot will be sent home on Thursday, September 6 and returned to the front office by Monday, September 10. The elected council member will be notified and his/her name posted in the front office on Friday, September 14.
There are currently 2 seats to be filled. The candidates receiving the most votes will serve on the Council as a parent/community representative. Write-in candidates receiving votes have an equal opportunity to be elected or serve as alternates on the Council. We meet 4 times throughout the year on weekday afternoons at 3:00 pm.
We are always looking for involved, kind, dedicated parents to join our yard duty staff. This is a wonderful opportunity to see the kids in play and help monitor their social interactions, safety protocols, and daily recess activities. Both volunteer and paid positions are available.
To apply for a paid position, go to https://www.edjoin.org/Home/JobPosting/1075293
To apply for a volunteer position, stop by the office and fill out a parent volunteer application.
Please join us on Thursday, September 6. Parents will learn about curriculum, instruction, and our Capri School community.
Session I will be from 6:00 – 6:30 PM for grades TK, K, 1 and 2.
Session II will be from 6:35 – 7:05 PM for grades 3, 4, and 5.
While we do have several kid-centered events throughout the year, including the Walk-a-Thon, Fall Festival, Spring Fling, and Science Night, Back to School Night is for adults only. This will allow our teachers quiet uninterrupted time to present information about grade-level instruction, classroom expectations, and our academic programs.
Our handbook will be paperless this year. An electronic copy will be emailed to you on the first day of school and can be found here on our school website to reference. Please take time to read this with your child as it contains important information about Capri and our expectations. A signature page will be sent home on the first day of school. Please sign and date after you reviewed the Capri Handbook. Please return the signed page to your child’s classroom teacher by Friday, August 24th.
We are looking forward to a wonderful year! Please join us for a Welcome Back Coffee in the A1 on Wednesday morning, the first day of school.
Remind & Twitter :
Capri uses Remind to send text messages with updates and important announcements. Parents can join by texting @4fd34 to 81010, or from your computer at www.remind.com/join/6kbe8.
You can also follow us on Twitter at @Capri_Cougars for the latest events at Capri. Each classroom also uses SeeSaw to share with parents and families all the wonderful learning happening at Capri. Please join when invited by your child’s classroom teacher.
Thursday Envelopes:
Clear communication between the school and home is crucial to the academic success of each student. Every Thursday, we send home a white envelope, known as the Thursday Envelopes, which includes important district, school, teacher, and PTA information. Please read this information carefully in order to familiarize yourself with school activities, opportunities, and educational practices. Sign and return the envelope to school on Friday morning.
All parents are invited and encouraged to join our Capri Parent Teacher Association. Our PTA contributes greatly to our school programs and serves as an important partnership between home and school. Find out about all of the exciting upcoming activities and events that are sponsored by our PTA by checking their website at: www.capripta.com. on Wednesday, August 22 8:00 am, please meet with other parents at 8:00 am in A1 for coffee. This is a fun way to celebrate the first day of school with other parents.
Hot lunch is offered in the cafeteria each day. At Capri, we have a “cashless line”. This means that students and/or parents need to bring lunch money into the office. Please place the money in an envelope with your child’s name, teacher, and amount enclosed. You can also add money to your student's lunch card online via the district website.
· For the 2018-2019 school year, lunch will be $3.50. An application for free or reduced lunch is available in the office or you can apply online now at campbellusd.org. Students who received free or reduced lunch last year will continue to do so for the first 30 days of this school year, but a new form must be filled out to continue the program this year.
Pick-up and drop-off can be a very busy time and we ask that you please support our efforts by adhering to our safety guidelines. Your child’s safety is of utmost importance to us.
· When dropping-off or picking-up your child, please use the appropriate lanes. In the front of the school, the left lane is drive-through only and the right lane is for pick-up and drop off.
· The circular driveway in the front of the school is for drop-off and pick-up only. Enter from the west end, and exit from the east end of the driveway---always pulling to the forward-most position. While in the right lane, please DO NOT LEAVE YOUR CAR. Additionally, please do not let your child enter or exit your car from the left lane or have your child go through the parking lot to meet you out in front of the school.
· Do not block or park in the Red Zone – this is reserved for buses only.
· Lastly, if you are parking, please make plans to come early to get a parking place in the surrounding neighborhood. Please help us to be a good neighbor, and don’t block or park in anyone’s driveway.
On Tuesday, August 21st at 5:00 pm class placements will be posted in the office window. Your child will only be identified by his/her CUSD ID number and not by name. In order to balance class enrollment, it is possible that further class changes might need to be made after the school year begins. However, we will do our best to keep any changes to a minimum. Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation regarding this matter.
