November 18, 2021 Cornell Community We have had 4 third grade students test positive. Consequently, the entire third grade will not be in school tomorrow, Monday and Tuesday. Of course, after that we have Thanksgiving Break. If you are uncomfortable sending your student to school just let us know and we will provide remote support. Just call and let us know.

Cornell Halloween Trick or Treating! Saturday, October 30th 4:00-6:30

Dear Parents/Guardians: Our Halloween Celebration will be held on Thursday 10/28. Because of Covid 19 we will not be having a traditional Halloween class party. K-4 Students will be allowed to wear their costumes to school all day on Thursday. Please make sure they have regular clothes under their costumes. 5-8 Students will be allowed to change into their costumes after lunch. Please remember costumes must be school appropriate! At 1:00 we will have our traditional Halloween parade (weather permitting). Parents may line the route to watch the parade, but will not be allowed to hand out treats like in years past. PBIS and the PTC will be providing treats for students. After the parade students will watch a movie in the gym for the remainder of the day. Thursday is a 2pm dismissal for Parent/Teacher conferences.
