HAPPY NEW YEAR! - Welcome back Grizzly Families! We are excited to start the New Year with you and your children as we begin the Second Semester of school.
2025/2026 RE-ENROLLMENT FEE INCREASES AFTER JANUARY 14: Re-Enrollment information was mailed home to you. If you have any questions, please contact the Elementary Office. We look forward to partnering with you in the 2025/2026 school year. Re-enroll by JANUARY 14 to save on enrollment fees!
Re-Enrollment FAQ:
Why am I asked to pay a $200 fee?
You are not completing 25/26 Re-Enrollment; you are completing an application.
Log out and use the snap code that was sent to you. You never have to pay up front to re-enroll. Your
Blackbaud account will be charged accordingly.
Why can’t I see the 2025/2026 Re-enrollment form?
You are using a different email address than what CCCS has on file.
Log out and use the email address the snap code was sent to.
IMPORTANT OFFICE REMINDERS:
LUNCHES: Monthly menus will be sent home with your child in their Monday Folder. You can also download and print a menu from our website. Turn in monthly lunch slips to your child’s teacher, as opposed to the school office. We cannot accommodate lunch drop offs.
EARLY PICK-UP: If you need to pick up your student from school early, please NOTIFY THE TEACHER IN ADVANCE so we can arrange to have your student sent to the office at the necessary time. We ask that you try to avoid scheduling appointments during school hours to help support the students’ learning.
STUDENT ITEMS: In order to reduce the drop off forgotten items in the Elementary Office, train students to double check backpacks the night before to ensure all needed items are ready.
COLD WEATHER APPAREL: We’d like to remind our families that students must wear CCCS logo jackets only. Students may not wear any other vest, sweater, sweatshirt, cardigan, or jacket over their CCCS polo. To help keep our students warm, they may also wear a solid long-sleeved navy, white, or black shirt or turtleneck under their CCCS polo shirt. Thank you for your cooperation!
STUDENT SCHOOL SUPPLIES: Check with your child to see if they need to replenish their school supplies such as paper, pencils, and crayons. Kleenex tissue and Clorox wipes are always a need! You can view the “Student Supplies List” on our school website, cccsdowney.org.
