Weekly Message for the Week of August 22nd

Dear Tiffany Families,

I hope this email finds you well this weekend – here is the information for the week:

SSC – Community Members Needed

We have a vacancy on our SSC and are in need of community members!  The commitment is one meeting a month – you can join virtually or in person.  Until will fill this vacancy, we cannot move forward with our required meetings.  If you are willing to be a part of SSC, please email me as soon as possible – crystal.sutton@cvesd.org.

Traffic and Safety

Traffic safety in our parking lot continues to be of great concern.  When we do not follow the expectations, it compromises the safety of everyone, but most importantly, the safety of our students.  If you are interested in volunteering, please email me as soon as possible at crystal.sutton@cvesd.org.  I will continue to include these reminders in our weekly message:

  • Red Curbs – “as required under California Vehicle Code Section 21458(a)(1), a curb painted red shall indicate no stopping, standing, or parking whether the vehicle is attended or unattended.” 
  • Yellow curbs are for loading and unloading only – cars should not be parked and left unattended.  If you are on a yellow curb, you should be in your vehicle to move as the traffic is moving.
  • The left lane in the parking lot is for traffic to move through.  Parking/stopping in the left lane blocks cars from being able to exit.  Students should not exit or enter vehicles that are in the left lane.
  • Use crosswalks for crossing the street and parking lot.  When dropping students off, please be sure that they exit the vehicle on the right so that they get out directly onto the sidewalk closest to the school building.
  • Follow traffic patterns and do not double park along parking spaces.

Thank you for your help in keeping our parking lot and neighbor safe, which ultimately keeps our students safe.

PTA News

Lunch Applications

While all meals are free for all students this year, these applications also can provide additional funding for our school.  We are asking that our families fill out and return the applications for the lunch program.  This application is green – be on the look out for it and return as soon as possible.  This application can also be completed online at https://www.schoolcafe.com/.

Campus Clinic

Campus Clinic, operated by COVID Clinic, is the organization that will be providing testing for students and staff here on campus each Wednesday at Tiffany Elementary.  If you want to participate in this optional testing, a new consent form must be filled out for the 2022-2023 school year.  Students and staff who were previously registered will not automatically rollover.  The consent forms were sent via email and are personalized for each student and staff member.
Optional testing will take place every Wednesday.  Campus Clinic staff will be on campus and will test only students and staff who have consent to be tested.  PCR tests will be used and results are shared with parent(s) via email within 24-48 hours.  If your child has tested positive within the last 90 days, PCR tests are not recommended because they can pick up small fragments of the virus.  Antigen testing is not available through Campus Clinic yet.  If that changes, we will let our community know.
If you did not receive an email from Campus Clinic and want to have your child participate, please email support@campusclinic.orgThey will be able to assist you with registration.  Our front office does not handle registration for testing.   
Here’s to a great week!
Take Care,
Crystal Sutton
Principal
