Hello Cardinal Elementary Families,
This week we will celebrate Valentine's Day with classroom parties on Wednesday, February 14th. Please check with classroom teachers about what students need to bring that day. If you are planning to provide a treat for students please make sure that you provide enough for all students and that there are no homemade treats.
Thanks again to all those that participated in the "Penny Wars". We will find out this week the results and be sure to let you know!
Check out the CWNK newscast (https://youtu.be/W7QumaxjLv4) for more updates on the week ahead!
