On Friday, during the assembly, the staff will be honored and receive an envelope full of cards!

National Bike To School Day | Wednesday, May 8th
Our Goal: NO cars in the loop on Wednesday, May 8…Can we do it? Our Safe Routes to School parent volunteers, David Evans and Catherine Wold, have organized ways for everyone to participate - whether you live close or far!
Any child who travels in a “green way” to school (including the bus!) will receive a prize at our welcome table under the shade structure on the blacktop! We will also be raffling off some amazing prizes during Cove in Motion that day! Two prizes per grade will be raffled for those who participate in getting to school in a "green way." Be sure to check in at the picnic tables to get your hand stamped and name included in the raffle.
We would love to have all Cove Coyotes participate!! Let's fill up the sidewalks and bike racks as much as possible. Thank you for teaching your child the importance of green travel --- it's a lifelong lesson!
Sincerely,
Michelle Walker, Principal
Kate Kropf, PTO Co-President
Catherine Wold, PTO Co-President
