Cedar Park Friday Howl!

November 8, 2024

Hello Timber Wolves,

Another fun filled week of learning and growing at Cedar Park.  The popular biking unit wrapped up this week.  It has been incredible to see students enjoying bike riding not only in this unit but by seeing so many riding bikes to school.  It has been extra gratifying to see students who learned to ride a bike because of this unit.  Today students are celebrating Fall Family Traditions in their classes and tonight the PTA is hosting a Movie Night at Cedar Park starting at 6pm.

Remember, there is NO SCHOOL on Monday, November 11th in observance of Veteran’s Day.

Picture Re-take Day is Tuesday, November 12th.  This is for anyone who was absent on the previous Picture Day or for families who want to have the picture re-taken and re-ordered.

Remember, conferences are scheduled to take place on Monday and Tuesday, November 25th and 26th.  Everyone should have received a link to sign up for a conference time.  If you have not, please reach out to your child’s classroom teacher.

This is the time of year when many family traditions center around a winter holiday that includes gift giving.  We also know that gift giving can be financially difficult for some of our families.  This is why every year Cedar Park hosts a Giving Tree program to help families.  Find out more about our program and sign up to support a family.  All requests to support a family are due by November 20th so that we can ensure we distribute your contributions before we go to Winter Break.  Thank you for supporting our community.

Here is a bit of joy from our week: A student came into the office to let me know about something that happened in their classroom and it became immediately clear that they left their class without their teacher knowing.  I walked them back to class emphasizing the importance of how they should never leave their class without talking to their teacher first.  The student stopped and with a look of confusion asked, “But aren’t you their supervisor?!”  I hope that bit of joy kicks off a lot of joy for your 3-day weekend.  Enjoy this extra time with friends and family.  We will see you all again on Tuesday the 12th.
