 SUPER HUGH NEWS!!!
DMC WON APPLECORE FOR
HENDERSON!
THIS IS OUR 4TH YEAR IN A ROW
FOR WINNING!
Thank you to all the students for reading, the teachers for pushing
kids to get their bookmarks turned in, and especially to our parents
for continually signing those bookmarks for our students!
We are so proud!
Drama Club (2nd posting): A huge shout out to our students, Drama Coaches, and parents for another
outstanding Theatric Performance: Beauty and the Beast! We are so proud of our students, their performances
were top notch and they showed such confidence getting up in front of hundreds performing their parts. Thank
you to all the parents who volunteered and supported our production!

Thank you to our PTA (2nd posting): Our PTA has agreed to fund our student supplies for next year! This is
truly amazing and helps our CCSD/State school budget tremendously! A big thank you to the PTA but especially
Mrs. Belisle for running the Read-A-Thon for the month of March and acquiring and scheduling all the
wonderful prizes and activities for our students for reaching their top reading minutes!

Teacher Requests: We support all of our teachers on this

campus. It was decided with the administrative team
Yearbooks are in the Front Office
that we will not be taking parent requests for this for Purchase (cash only)!
upcoming year. After the teams sort then If you didn’t order one, we have 40 yearbooks left
administration is the final determination on class lists. from our order to sell for $40 (cash only) at our front
office until May 19th.

CCSD Registration is OPEN: Registration is open in Infinite Campus for the 2023-2024 school year. Every student
currently sitting in a CCSD seat needs to register (and completed for every sibling attending CCSD). When you go into
your Infinite Campus portal, click on “more,” then click on the “online registration parents only,” then click on “existing
student registration,” and review each of your screens in order to update any needed information. It can be very slow
going from page to page. It’s always a good idea to print your application summary in case something happens –
technology wise and your application/registration is lost.

Library Books: All library books must be turned in by Monday, May 8th. The final day to check out books with be this
Thursday. The librarian has sent all the teachers the final dates for their rotation day to turn in books. Library books not
returned will be assigned a fine in Infinite Campus and will follow students until paid from school to school in CCSD.
