On Friday, December 11th, Miss Myra and Miss Shelby's class are planning a field trip to see the Nutcracker perform through the Ballet of Arkansas.

Parents, if you could volunteer to drive, that would be great.

  Wish List "Thank You",    Posted 12/04/09

Thank you parents so much for your support with the wish list!  We appreciate any donation toward your child's classroom.  Our parents are wonderful and we feel grateful to have you part of our school's success.
 
  Little Rock Racquet Club,    Posted 12/02/09

Yesterday the elementary students started their tennis rotation at the Little Rock Racquet Club.  Students returned to school excited to learn a new sport that will enhance their hand-eye coordination and allow them a chance at some friendly competition.  As always, they enjoyed the ride on the school bus and having an opportunity to step out of the classroom for awhile.
 
  Arkansas Children's' Hospital Collection,    Posted 11/10/09

CVMS is starting a collection jar for the children who are patients at Arkansas Children's' Hospital.  We will keep a jar in the foyer at Taylor Loop on the buffet table.  There will also be a jar on the receptionist's desk at our Cantrell location. Any donation is greatly appreciated, and will be forwarded to ACH each time a jar if full.
 
  A Word from Ms. Cynthia,    Posted 11/04/09

The October Carnival was a success!  Thanks go out to all the teachers, parents, and grandparents who helped in any way. Although the rain was relentless, the students were thoroughly enjoying themselves inside.

     Teachers have caught their breaths and are now planning for a busy November.   Wish lists are being prepared in anticipation of beneficial materials, instruments, etc.  Instead of relying on traditional fundraisers, CVMS relies on the yearly wish list to expand and update our Montessori classrooms. These items are greatly utilized as well as appreciated! Teachers will be distributing their wish lists at Parent/Teacher Conferences on Friday, November 13th.  If you have not already done so, please contact your teacher for an allotted time. Extended care will be offered.

     Thank you to Ms. Laura Dillard - Andrew Mencer's grandmother - for all of her hard work on the embroidery work she had done on "hoodies" and sweatshirts. These will be displayed in your child's classroom next week and a order form will be given to you at the P/T Conference. Let's keep the CVMS spirit alive!

     Please remember that there is no school the day before the conferences:  Thursday, November 12th; this is a teacher workday. There will be no extended care offered.

     Flu vaccines will be offered to students on November 17th. We were told by the Arkansas Department of Health that these will be seasonal vaccinated, hopefully, the H1N1. They cannot ensure us, so please be aware that it may just be seasonal flu vaccines.

     On a final note, please remember to turn in your child's completed re-enrollment papers for the 2010-2011 school year before the Christmas holidays. Registering during this early enrollment not only secures your child's spot, but also relieves you of the $200.00 yearly building fee. Although a verbal promise is always appreciated, we must have the filled-out form and registration fee as we have done so in years' past.

Please feel free to call the office at any time to discuss concerns or ideas. We have gotten so many great ideas and suggestions from our parents.

             Most Sincerely
         
             Ms. Cynthia Poole, Administrator
