Hi CJL Family, Friends, and Neighbors, There's still time to send in Box Tops for Education. If you have any clipped that haven't expired, we'd appreciate if you'd send them into CJL with your student to give to their teacher for us. We earn 10 cents per Box Top! Also, if you download the free app and sync it to CJL School, you can scan your receipt after you shop using your phone and there's no more clipping or sending anything in! We're saving for new playground equipment to replace one of our older structures. Box Tops add up quickly and we'll continue with this next year as well. Thanks for your continued support!

Good morning CJL Families, In this week's newsletter, I've included lots of important dates that will help to answer some questions that you may have. Plus I have included a heart-warming story about a fourth grader who received a special gift from the lady who found his message in a bottle and some excellent work from Mrs. Gillis' and Mrs. Belanger's students. https://5il.co/t1n3 Happy reading, Sherri Baron CJL Principal sbaron@sanford.org 207-324-8481

Please click to view the details in the image from our PTA about today’s Color Fun Friday for students that is happening today at CJL. Children and staff, wear your grade’s color in play clothes! It’s going to be a fun day! Staff who serve multiple grades should dress very colorfully. You’ll find photos of this event on the CJL PTA Facebook Page later and I will add some to our newsletter this weekend. Thanks!

Good evening CJL Families, We hope all of the CJL moms out there had a fabulous Mother's Day today! Here's the Newsletter for the coming week of May 10th, 2021. Students should wear yellow tomorrow. We're having Spirit Week to build excitement for a school day PTA event we're having on Friday where the students will get to squirt colored water at our staff during recess, just for a little fun! We hope to bring back our annual Color Fun Run once COVID guidelines are lifted (hopefully next year), but for now, this will do. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TctOQJM8eqRl8buB9BztoOTQO6qJP0-dfSXwynX5V0w/edit?usp=sharing We try to share photos since we know it must be hard not being allowed into the building this year. Plus, we're quite proud of our wonderful students and staff! Please enjoy! Happy reading, Sherri Baron CJL Principal

Good evening CJL Families Who Pick Up Students in the PM, We have many new students who have returned from remote learning to in person learning, so there are a few dismissal procedures that we'd like to tighten up please. *Please use the crosswalk and sidewalks. *Please wait in the designated parent pick up area, on the sidewalk or grass, and refrain from standing in the bus lane while waiting. *Please hold your child's hand or keep them right beside you when walking back to your vehicle. *Please be careful of traffic that may be driving from around the back side of the school where our custodians and kitchen staff park. *Please make eye contact and give the bus driver a thumbs up, waiting for one in return, before walking in front of a stopped bus. *Please bring the parent pick up sign that the school provided to you, especially on rainy days when hats, masks, and umbrellas make it difficult to tell who's who. *If you need a sign, please email Mrs. Scremin at jscremin@sanford.org. Thank you for helping to keep everyone safe during dismissal. We appreciate our community's help with this! Sherri Baron CJL Principal
