🐾Panther families, get ready to READ, SHOP & DISCOVER!
YOUR SHOPPING HELPS OUR LIBRARY!🔖

SET UP YOUR CPES eWALLET HERE: https://trst.in/vKB4MB? utm_source=chatgpt.com

MY #1 BOOK FAIR TIP: USE eWALLET!

I strongly encourage families to use Scholastic eWallet instead of sending cash with students.
Why? Because it keeps Book Fair shopping easy, safe, and stress-free!
💲No lost money
🤝No sharing or borrowing money
🎁No pressure to buy something for a friend
💰️You decide how much your child can spend
😀 Kids get to choose their own books!

Cottonwood Plains Elementary Book Fair & eWallet
📅When: September 14–18
📚️ Where: CPES Library

This is a chance for our Panthers to find a new favorite book, discover a new series, laugh at something silly, learn something new, or fall in love with reading all over again.
And yes...there will be LOTS of books!

The Book Fair is also the main fundraiser for our library. Every purchase helps us bring MORE books to CPES — including new favorites, exciting new titles, and books our students are asking to read.

📚️So when you shop at the Book Fair, you're helping keep our library growing!

🌟AND REMEMBER...
Kids do NOT have to buy anything!
They can browse. They can discover. They can make a wish list. They can talk about books.
‼️Most importantly, we want them to leave excited about READING!
🩷We can't wait to fill the library with books, excitement, and happy readers!

Two-Hour Early Release TOMORROW, FRIDAY, AUGUST 21, Due to Heat

Good Afternoon, Families:
The current hot weather that we are experiencing within our community has had a significant impact on our district and many of our school buildings. While approximately half of the district's schools are fully air-conditioned, the remaining buildings do not have air conditioning within their classrooms and only have limited air conditioned spaces within the buildings.

​Weather services are forecasting that we will experience significantly warm weather tomorrow. We believe that the temperature will create conditions in many of our buildings that will be quite difficult for students and staff.
​
➡️ As a result, please be aware that all Thompson School District schools will release two hours early tomorrow, Friday, August 21. To determine the release time, families should subtract two hours from the school's normal release time. Bus pick-up will be two hours sooner than the normal pick-up time. Please note that afternoon preschool classes will not be held. ⬅️

Athletic teams will continue with their current schedule and will follow the standards that are set by the Colorado High School Activities Association. Families who participate in after-school programming with the Boys and Girls Club and YMCA of Northern Colorado should reach out to their aftercare provider for information about service levels that are available.

We understand that this decision will create some significant schedule adjustments for many of our families. However, we do believe that this early release schedule will provide some much-needed relief and beneficial assistance for our students and staff.

​Thank you very much for your continued support of our district community.

Sincerely,
Thompson School District
