Dear CJP Families,
We are looking forward to welcoming families into the building for parent-teacher interviews on the evening of Thursday, November 23rd and the morning of Friday, November 24th. We appreciate being able to share with families their child's successes here at CJP as well as taking the opportunity to speak about supports for their areas of growth. If you have not yet booked a conference please go to your online MyCBE account where you will find a tab that says, "book and manage meeting times" where you can choose your preferred time.
Winter K-2 Musical Performance: “Flakes"
Dear Parents,
We hope this message finds you well. We are excited to inform you that our grade K-2 students will be presenting the musical "Flakes" on December 7th, featuring two performances:
1. a matinee at 10:30 am, and;
2. an evening performance at 6:15 pm.
*Please note that all student performers must arrive at 5:45pm (30 minutes before the show starts) for the evening performance in order to give them time to prepare.
To ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone, we kindly request that you fill out the following Google Form to reserve your tickets for one of the performances.

Due to limited seating capacity and fire code regulations, we are asking families to please respect the attendance challenges and choose only one performance to attend so that all families have an opportunity to attend. Once we reach capacity, the Google Form will be closed, so we encourage you to reserve your tickets at your earliest convenience.
We appreciate your cooperation and understanding in making this event a safe and enjoyable one for all. Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to celebrating the talents of our students with you at the "Flakes" musical. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out.
