Planning ahead for Halloween - Costumes and Kindergarten and 1st grade Parade. Here are details about what is and is not allowed for Halloween costumes at Cove for our fun and safe Halloween celebration on Friday, October 29. Individual classrooms will recognize this fun holiday in a variety of ways. Kindergarten and 1st grade parents are invited to join us for our parade at 1:30pm. It is a very short parade around the courtyard, so please arrive between 1:20pm-1:25pm. Reminder parents attending this event must be vaccinated. Thank you!
Our Kids Heart Challenge is off to a great start! As of Friday, we had 114 students participating and $4,668 in donations. Wow! Our campaign runs through Friday, October 22nd, and it's never too late to join! Our students are learning about heart, brain, and vascular health, and meeting kids with special hearts, like Finn and Alexa. Our goal is to have all students register online and take the challenge. The class with the most participation will earn bragging rights and the opportunity to slime Mrs. Walker on October 22!
Reminder! 5th Grade entries for the 2021-2022 Cove School Yearbook Cover Design Contest Due Finish up the last touches on your creation and have them to your teacher by 4pm on Tuesday, October 26th! This year's theme is: "Let's Sail Together" - We cannot change the direction of the wind, but we can adjust our sails to always reach our destination.

Left Bank x SPARK Monday Night Dinners Every Monday, Left Bank creates a delicious SPARK Family Meal for 4 for $50 and donates 20% back to our schools! This week’s menu: fried chicken, chicken and steak tacos, salad, homemade tortilla chips and fresh pico de gallo. Order online today for pick up tomorrow. Select “SPARK Family Meal” when you order. Complete October menus here.
What does Community-funded mean? Today’s reality is that public schools in California can no longer rely on state and local funding to provide a well-rounded education. As the primary fundraising organization for the entire LCMSD, SPARK raises over $1.5M per year for our three schools: Neil Cummins, Hall and The Cove through Annual Giving, business partnerships and fundraising events. In order to reach our $1.5M goal, we need participation from every family. Every donation, at any amount, makes a difference for every LCMSD student. Make your tax-deductible Annual Giving donation today.
