School News

Welcome back Cougars!  We are excited to see everyone on Wednesday, August 21st.  Staff has been working hard for several weeks getting ready for the new school year.  We know that this year will be filled with lots of learning, collaboration, and FUN.  

To help ensure the safety of all, please note these reminders regarding morning drop off and afternoon pickup:  

• School gates will open at 7:50 AM and students are to make their way to their classroom lines.  Adults may enter campus and wait with their children.  

• Please refrain from playing on the play structure or with equipment during morning drop off.

• School starts at 8:00 AM sharp.  Any student arriving after this time will need to check in with the office for a tardy slip.

• After school adults will be allowed on campus to pick up students. 

• TK, kinder, first grade, and second grade students must be picked up at their classrooms unless arrangements have been made with your child’s homeroom teacher.

• All adults and students need to leave campus immediately after pick up.  We have Campbell Care and other programs on campus that require us to secure the campus for everyone's safety.

• Please do not park in the circular driveway, this is used for loading and unloading only.    We need to keep the traffic flowing.

• Capri does have a bus that will be dropping off and picking students up each day.  Please do not block the bus loading zone in front of the preschool playground.

• Let’s be good neighbors and not block driveways or mailboxes.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

As the summer season unfolds, I want to extend my warmest wishes to each of you. This is a time to relax, recharge, and relish the longer days and sunshine. Whether you're traveling, spending time with family, or exploring new hobbies, I hope this summer brings you joy and memorable experiences.

To our students, take this opportunity to enjoy your break, but also consider dedicating a bit of time to reading and reflecting on the past school year. Stay curious and engaged in activities that spark your interest.

To our community, thank you for your continued support and partnership. Your involvement and dedication are what make our school a wonderful place for learning and growth.

Enjoy a safe and happy summer. I look forward to seeing you all on August 21st refreshed and ready for another successful school year!

Warm regards,

Eric Brown
Capri Principal

A huge shout out to Ms. Astrid and the organizing committee for their work in putting together a fabulous Multicultural event on Tuesdy night.  Hundreds showed up to enjoy music and culture from around the world.  Students had passports that were stamped as they visited the various country booths.  Music, dancing, and demonstrations entertained guests.  Food venders provideddelicious Arepas, tacos, and burritos.  We look forward to hosting a bigger event next year. 

Thank you again Astrid and the organizing committee for a spectacular evening.
