Good Afternoon,
We have been informed that there is a car wreck near the clocktower entrance to the Chelsea Park neighborhood. This wreck will affect traffic coming into and out of the neighborhood. We are rerouting buses this afternoon, so we apologize if they are running behind schedule. We have been informed that the traffic is starting to back up on Highway 280, so we know there will be some delays. Please be patient and plan accordingly if you are picking up your child in car rider line this afternoon. You may want to leave a few minutes earlier than usual or find an alternate route to the school.
Sincerely,
CPES Administration
Dear 1st Grade Parents:
Due to the possibility of rain and thunderstorms in our area for tomorrow, we have rescheduled our field trip to Monday, May 5. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we want to make sure our students, families, and staff are safe. The forecast for Monday looks much better. Hopefully, all parents who were planning on attending can still make arrangements to go on Monday.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Anderson
Principal
