Good evening Cherryville Elementary. This is Principal Black calling with some weekly updates and reminders.

This week we will be Celebrating our Colors as a school. Monday will be red day and we are asking all staff and students to wear red clothing to celebrate. Please see our page for all of the colors we will be celebrating next week.

Your child will also bring home information about our school fundraiser. We will be choosing 2 lucky family to win a Cherry Pass. This pass will allow the families to skip the car rider line and pick up their student directly in front of the school each afternoon during the first quarter. This fundraiser will occur each winner to give families a chance to win throughout the entire school year. Each chance costs $10. The winner will be announced on September 11.

We would also like to announce a few safety reminders for our families:
*Visitors must have their ID to visit, eat lunch, or sign out students.
*No dismissals will be allowed after 1:45 each day.
*All car rider tags should hang from your mirror or visor for quick visibility.
