WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL

Hello Cypress Families,

It is with great pleasure I welcome you to the beginning of the 2019-2020 school year. We are excited to welcome our families back to school. On August 20th we will be hosting our TK/Kindergarten Orientation at 1:00 pm in the MPR. Our TK and Kindergarten families will have an opportunity to receive their classroom assignments, meet the teacher and visit the classrooms. New families in grades 1-5 will have an opportunity to tour our campus and meet some Cypress students at 2:00 pm. In addition, at both orientations, I will be introducing members of our PTA Executive Board and they will share information about our Cypress PTA organization and provide a variety of ways for families to become involved with events and committees throughout the year. They will also have school spirit wear and yearbooks available for purchase in the quad before and after the Orientation. We welcome all families to our PTA Welcome Back To School Social on August 20th from 5:00-6:00 pm. Class postings will be available, school spirit wear, and yearbooks can be purchased, too. There will be an Open House for our Child Care from 4:00-6:00 pm.

Last week a Cypress Welcome Back To School Packet was sent to all families via US postal service. In case you did not receive this information I have included it within this all call communication. Please ensure your correct address and contact information is up to date in our office, so we can continue to provide you with school information and updates throughout the year.

All of our staff members have been working hard to prepare for the arrival of our students. Beginning August 21st, our campus opens each day at 7:50 am. The warning bell rings at 8:12 and the final bell rings at 8:15. Please join us in your classroom teacher's line in the quad at 8:15 on the first day of school for a welcome back to school assembly. Additionally, the PTA and I will be having a Welcome Back to School Principal Coffee for families immediately after our assembly. Please, be sure to create and communicate a pick up plan for meeting your child after school on the first day of school.

Please do not hesitate to contact our office if you have any additional questions regarding the opening of this school year. Our office is open from 7:30-4:00 pm.

Mrs. Carey Bartlow
