Parents/guardians, Make-up Picture Day for grades 6-11 is November 17. You have the option to order online by visiting mylifetouch.com and typing in the Picture Day Code: EVTD24QST Uniform for Picture Day: In the past, students were required to wear their white Oxford shirts to be photographed for the yearbook.

Given that we remain in a pandemic and our focus must be on the instruction of our students, visitors to our school will be permitted only on a limited basis and only by appointment. We ask that families and community members work with us to help fulfill our main goal: to keep the school open and fully functioning in the safest manner possible throughout the school year. ● If you need to schedule an appointment and are unsure whom to contact, please email Ms. Obrien AOBRIEN@MYCSP.ORG, and she will assist you. As much as we miss you all visiting the building, we are unable to honor that request at this time. ● If you are visiting the building, you must park in a parking space. Please do not park on the curb outside the main entrance.

There are several two-hour early dismissals and late arrival days worked into the calendar this year. On two-hour early dismissal days, all car riders will exit the school building no later than 1:05 pm. Parents must pick their children up on time as there will be no supervision outside. The two-hour early dismissals are typically planned so that staff can participate in professional development. On two-hour late arrival days, all car riders are to be dropped off between 10:00-10:15 am. Students are to be in class in their seats and ready to start the day at 10:20 am. There is a copy of the two-hour late arrival and early dismissal schedules attached for your reference.
