Weekly Message for the Week of December 4th

Dear Tiffany Families,

I hope this email finds you well during this first weekend in December.  We only have two more weeks until Winter Break – it does not seem possible!  Our final day of Quarter 2 will be Friday, December 15th.  Winter Break will be from Monday, December 18th through Tuesday, January 9th.  Students will return Wednesday, January 10th and it will be a Minimum Day for TK-6th students.

Here is the information for the week:

Sixth Graders Going to Camp!

Our Sixth Graders are headed off to camp on Monday morning!  Please keep this in mind as you are coming to school, as it will impact parking with families who are staying for the send off of our students!  Leave extra time on Monday morning to accommodate our Sixth Graders and their families.  Thank you to our teachers and families for making this experience happen for our students – they are going to have a great time!

Attendance Winner for the Month of November

Congratulations to Mrs. Loyola’s 5th Graders for having the best attendance in the entire school for the month of November – 97.5% daily average attendance!!  Who will win December????  Will Mrs. Loyola’s class hang on to the title?  We will see!

New Traffic Pattern

Our community may have noticed by now that we now have a three-way stop at the intersection of Elmhurst and Vassar!  This was a community effort that was been in the works for nearly two years and it finally was installed this past week.  We hope that it will bring an additional layer of safety to our students and their families when crossing the street.

I would also like to remind our families that there is no left turn out of our parking lot during arrival and dismissal.  Please be sure to turn right when exiting the school campus by car.  Thank you!

Parking Lot Safety

I know that I include this in the weekly message each week, but it is incredibly important that we all follow the expectations.  Please also be mindful of how we treat one another when we are frustrated – our students are watching our example, so thank you, in advance, for your support.

For your review, here are the traffic and parking lot expectations:

  • 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.” 
  • 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.

Safety Patrol has been training with CVPD for the last few weeks to prepare for supporting our students in the parking lot before and after school.  Once they go on duty, please be mindful that they are students trying to do their part in keeping their fellow students safe.  Thank you, in advance, for supporting our student leaders!  

If you would like to volunteer in our parking lot, please let me know at crystal.sutton@cvesd.org.

Full House Fridays at Tiffany Elementary

Did you know that Friday is the day that we tend to see the most absences at school?  While we encourage students to attend school everyday (unless they are sick), CVESD is hosting a district-wide competition to increase our attendance on specifically on Fridays!  Let’s win, Tiffany Tigers!

 

Everyday Counts – Attendance Reminders

Just a reminder that our gates open for breakfast and the track at 8:10am – we encourage our families to take advantage of this opportunity, as you beat the parking lot rush!  School starts promptly at 8:45am and students should be in line by 8:40am.

If a student is sick with a fever, bowel issues, vomiting, COVID, flu, etc., they should not attend school.  Also keep in mind that students who have a 100+ degree temperature may not come to school and can return after they have been fever free for 24 hours without medication.

Again, here are tips for attendance to know what is excused and what is not:

  • Please call the office to report any absences and the reason for the absence.
    • Excused Absences: illness, doctor appointments for the student, military engagements (ex. ceremony, return from deployment), death of an immediate family member, etc.
    • Unexcused Absences:  appointments for other family members, out of town, vacations, etc.
    • Independent Study:  If you know ahead that your child might need to miss school (ex. family reunion), please contact your child’s teacher and our office to set up an independent study contract.  Independent Study contracts are available for 3 or more days, but not more than 14 cumulative days in a school year.  Independent Study Contracts should be requested at least one week in advance.
    • Tardy:  Students are considered tardy if they are not in class by 8:45am.
    • COVID absences are cleared with a POSITIVE test result.  Current guidelines require positive individuals to stay home for 5 days and mask through Day 10 on campus.

Here’s to a great week!

Take Care,

Dr. Sutton

We understand that the painting of the additional red curb is a major shift and it impacts how pick up and drop off has been for a very long time.  The red curbs are because that is the current building code and we must adjust to fulfill this new requirement.  Thank you, in advance, for keeping our students safe and thank you to those who are following our expectations in the parking lot.

I am excited to share with you that Safety Patrol is coming back after a long hiatus!  Ms. Brauer and Ms. Bertrand, along with a group of 5th and 6th graders are gearing up to start patrol before and after school.  They are in the process of beginning their training with CVPD and we be out in the parking lot soon!

Weekly Message for the Week of October 16th

Dear Tiffany Families,

I hope this email finds you well and that you were able to catch the eclipse this weekend!  It was awesome to watch!  Thank you for a great first week back and we look forward to another amazing quarter ahead.  Here is the information for the week:

Change to Traffic Pattern

As a reminder and you have now seen, some of our sidewalks were replaced and updated over the Fall Break.  In addition, as shared previously, all yellow curbs have now been painted red.  NO PARKING is permitted on any red fire lane.  Students who can be dropped off, should do so, exit the vehicle on the curb side, and walk on to campus.  The car should then pull away so that the next vehicle can do the same.  Cars should not be parked or left in any fire lane at any time.

For pick up, please make sure that your child knows where to meet you and if it is a drive through pick up, be sure they are paying attention so that they can get in the car as efficiently as possible.

If you need to park, please do so in a marked stall or on the street in a proper location.  If parking in the neighborhood, please be courteous to our neighbors by not blocking their driveways, etc.

We understand that this is a major shift and it impacts how pick up and drop off has been for a very long time.  The red curbs are because that is the current building code and we must adjust to fulfill this new requirement.  Thank you, in advance, for keeping our students safe.

If you would like to volunteer in our parking lot, please let me know at crystal.sutton@cvesd.org.

Here are our volunteer needs:
T-Shirts Sorting:  We will receive 500+ Fun Run T-shirts from our vendor.  The T-shirts need to be sorted by classroom according to the class roster provided by each teacher of the students’ and adults’ sizes in each class.
Fruit and Water Distribution Purchase:  Purchase the bulk fruit (mandarin oranges / bananas), the gallons of water and mini paper cups for the water stations. Deliver all fruit, water, cups, etc. to the PTA Room no later than Tuesday, October 17th.  This volunteer must keep receipts of all purchases for reimbursement of expenses by the PTA.
Set Up Track: Set Up the 2 tracks for the Fun Run.  This includes setting up the fence stakes, the plastic fencing, the flags, etc. and also includes chalking the tracks.
General Pre-Event Set Up:  The morning of the Fun Run, there will be miscellaneous tasks to make sure the tracks, tables, speakers, banner, trash bins, cones, etc. are all ready and in place before the event.
Lap Trackers:  Lap Trackers will mark the students’ T-shirts with washable markers as they complete each lap.  Trackers also cheer on and encourage students as they jog/walk around the track.  They should watch out for students who appear extremely fatigued and to encourage them to walk and get some water, if they need it.
Water Station Attendants:  Attendants set up the water station for each track.  The station will have a 3-gallon water dispenser that should be filled before the Fun Run.  Mini water cups should be filled and placed on the table so the students can easily grab water if they get thirsty.  Trash bins should be placed nearby for easy disposal of empty water cups.  Attendants also cheer on and encourage students as they jog/walk around the track.  They should watch out for students who appear extremely fatigued and to encourage them to walk and get some water, if they need it.
Post-Run Fruit and Water Station:  Set up fruit and water distribution tables and assist with distribution of fruit and water after the Fun Run.  Set up trash bins for easy disposal of fruit peels and trash.
General Tear Down / Clean Up:  Tear down both tracks and store supplies and equipment away for future use.  Clean up track and dispose of trash and debris.
Prizes Assembly:  Assemble prize bags based on students’ total money earned via Pledgestar and per-lap pledges.  Staple on each prize bag the sheet with the student’s name, the prize level reached, and prizes awarded.
There may be some additional volunteer tasks as we go along but the above list is the bulk of what we need help with.  Thank you very much for your continued support of the Tiffany PTA.  We are encouraged by all the support we’ve received so far and look forward to working with you in making this Fun Run the most successful fundraiser ever.
Thank you!
