Increasing Safety at Morning Drop Off:
Hi CJL Families,
When dropping students off in the morning, please only let them out of the car at one of the three designated drop off spots marked by signs using the passenger doors only. Please keep this line of traffic moving as quickly as possible.
Should your child need longer to get ready to exit the vehicle, please pull into a parking spot and accompany them to the crossing guard when they're ready.
It can be difficult for parents when they are trying to leave the parking spots if blocked by the quick morning drop off line, particularly the handicapped spaces. So please, do your best to let people out safely if you can.
We appreciate your attention to these matters. Safety is our priority!
Have a good evening!

The Sanford Backpack Program will be holding a big community food distribution Thursday, Jan 6th from 3:30-5:30 or until they run out of food. They will have frozen meats, meal kits, eggs, assorted canned goods and lots of fresh produce to share. This will be a curbside pick up style through the circle drive of the OLD Willard School. Please do not line up any earlier than 3:30 as we do not want to disrupt traffic flow through this school zone. This is for all Sanford School families!!
Also if you would like your student to bring home a weekly backpack food bag with dry goods and pantry staples, please contact your student's teacher or counselor.

Spirit Week Continues at CJL. See attached flyer. We have a three day week. Let’s make it a great one! No school starting Thursday until after the New Year. Happy holidays!


Good morning,
Due to issues with shipping, we only have enough today for Kindergarten students and students in our special education self contained classrooms from our free fresh fruit and veggie program.
For the same reason, we will not have the free fresh fruit and veggie program again until Jan. 3rd. Please send in a snack with your child(ren), if you can.
Thank you!

Free Food Distribution Thursday @ CJL 3:00pm.
The Sanford Backpack Program will have a crew in place to distribute food to CJL parents during pick ups this Thursday at Dismissal near the furthest cafeteria door.
Happy holidays!

Good morning CJL Families!
Attached is the CJL principal's newsletter for Nov. 5th, 2021.

The goal is for items to arrive for the holidays. On Tuesday there will be a PTA Meeting. There's information enclosed in this edition regarding Pool Testing, Lost and Found, and much more. Please send children with warm coats as it's getting colder. Thank you and have a great weekend!
