Parent Drivers:
Drivers on Study Trips must be recertified every year for the safety of our students! If you have received a training from the office staff in person previously, you may take the refresher test by clicking on the link here. Please print out the final page, sign, and bring into the office. Thank you for taking the time to chaperone, drive, and take this test. We appreciate you!
Swine Flu Outbreak Strategy for CCDS:
In anticipation of an active flu season this year, we have implemented the recommendations of the CDC. Students with flu-like symptoms will be isolated and required to wear a mask until picked up by a parent. Please make sure that your emergency information is up to date in the office so that we can contact you in the event your child needs to be sent home.
Download a symptom screening tool for parents, in english or spanish, that you may use at home and a flu guide for parents from the CDC. Please contact our School Nurse, Patty Mott, with any questions or concerns.
