Parents/Guardians,

Please see the following announcements.

Red Ribbon Week – October 10-12

From our PTA: Next Week (October 10-12), is Red Ribbon Week! It’s a good opportunity to talk to your kids about the importance of choosing now to avoid using drugs. We’ll have activities during lunch recess to reinforce the anti-drug message, and dress up days to help the kids be involved. Monday Oct 10th Wear Red, Tuesday Oct 11th Wear Neon colors, Wednesday Oct 12th Wear your favorite Superheroes shirt.

PTA Meeting – Tuesday, October 11

Upcoming Fall Break

A reminder that Fall Break is coming up this week – October 13-18.  After Fall Break, school will resume for students on Wednesday, October 19 (B Day).

Storybook Pumpkin Patch

We are growing a storybook pumpkin patch, and we need your help! Decorate a pumpkin to look like one of your favorite book characters, and bring it to school to plant in our Storybook Pumpkin Patch. Please see the flyer for all the information and Entry Form. Extra forms in the library.

PTA Reflections

Reflections is just about two weeks away and Fall Break could be a great time to get your students to work on their Reflections entries.

The theme this year is ‘Show Your Voice!’ and students can enter pieces in: 2-d art, 3-d Art, Dance Choreography, Writing, Film, Music or Photography. Students can submit in more than one category. We recognize every student who participates and it can be a great opportunity to boost confidence (I know it was for me as a kid, which is why I choose to be a part at Canyon Crest now).

The due date for all of the entries is October 24th.  Submit entries to the Utah PTA website.

We’d love to see as many students be a part of this beautiful program as possible this year, so please encourage these creative kids to make something!

Please also snap a photo of your student with their entry (or working on their entry) and send it to  canyoncrestreflections@gmail.com so we can include everyone in the slide show at the assembly.

We Are Hiring!

We are hiring instructional assistants (classroom aides and interventionists)!  If you or anyone you know would be interested in working at Canyon Crest, please direct them to our website postings (links below).  Please reach out to our facilitator, Deanna Lee, if you have any questions ( deannal@provo.edu).
