Weekly Parent Communication 5/15/23 – 5/19/23
Canyon Crest Parents/Guardians,
Please note the following announcements.
1. End of Year Lunch Balances
The end of the school year is rapidly approaching. Please take a moment and check your students lunch account and make sure there is enough money to make it to the end of the year. If there is any money owed, please pay immediately as we cannot have negative balances at the end of the year.
We will be serving both breakfast and lunch on the last day of school this year. Money that is left on the students lunch account will be there next year. If a student is moving to Jr. High their lunch balance will follow them. All negative balances need to be paid before the last day of school.
2. Library Books Need to Be Returned ASAP
The end of the year is here and we need to collect all of the library books that have been checked out. Please check with your students and make sure they have turned in all of their library books. We are starting inventory and need them all back. Thank you!
3. Full Day Kindergarten
Provo City School District is proud to announce the introduction of full-day kindergarten programs in all our schools starting next academic year.
“Utah kids in full-day kindergarten regularly perform 2 to 4 times better than their half-day kindergarten peers in basic kindergarten proficiencies literacy and numeracy… It is a time-tested, evidence-based, early learning practice that can give children from all backgrounds a strong and equitable start in school.” – Utah State Board of Education (USBE)
Full-day kindergarten is the automatic enrollment option; all students still have the option for half-day kindergarten if indicated during the registration process.
