.Hello from the Executive Director.
If we give our children sound self-love, they will be able to
deal with whatever life puts before them.
Hello Bronco Families!
I can hear the countdown starting in the hallways…30 school days left, 25 school days left….There is that tinge of excitement that summer brings for students and staff alike. The anticipation of fun end of the year events like field trips, promotion ceremonies, field days, and the promise of summer’s sweet lazy mornings where everyone gets to sleep in a little longer is buzzing through the building. We worked hard this year. There was much to make up and put back in order. I am proud of our students and staff for pulling together and resetting the sails to continue our adventure in learning and growing!
In the next few weeks, we look forward to seeing many of you at some of the upcoming events. The activities will be held outdoors to ensure that everyone can attend regardless of vaccination status. Hopefully, next year will bring less restrictive guidelines and allow us to return to pre-COVID status with family and community activities.
Parking here at school can be tricky during these events. We are asking families to park in the baseball field area instead of the front of the building for the Spring Spectacular on the 24th. The Twilight Bikers Club uses the parking lot on Tuesdays for events in the spring. Please be extra cautious of bikers as you drive close to the school for the event. We need volunteers to help set up and take down some chairs and risers that day. If you have completed the volunteer tasks for the year and can help, we would really appreciate it! Let Katie Brushett know at community@coburgcharter.org.
Once again, thank you for all that you do for CCCS! Have a lovely evening!
Warm regards,
Lisa

Hello from PCS (People for Coburg School), the school's parent group. Three things to know or help with this week….
BRONCO BASH: Thank you!! Saturday night was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Thanks to everyone who supported - the sponsors and donors, Jessica & Justin Ubel as our fabulous emcees, all the volunteers (especially our Chair, Jen Derby), and the Honey Brown Band! Congratulations to the golden bell winners: The Bridge Church (for countless volunteer hours they have given to the school), “anonymous” (for their YEARS of generosity), and Erica Piquette (who has been an absolute rockstar, playing almost every volunteer role possible the past 9 years)! We’re tallying final results…want to be the first to know? Come to the PCS meeting this Friday …
PCS MEETING: This Friday 5/20 at 8:15 am (by the garden/playground area - to the back/right of the school - so that little sibs can run around while we meet). Agenda will be helping with auction wrap-up and discussing the Jogathon and Book Fair.
FRIDAY FUN-DAY: June 3rd! Mark your calendars for June 3rd from 10:30am-12:30 pm to celebrate the last Friday of the school year with the jogathon fundraiser, book fair, Coburg Fire truck, and more! Parents, grandparents, and friends are all welcome to join in the festivities to support our students AND to bring a picnic lunch to stay afterwards! Jogathon information and donation envelopes will be coming home starting this Friday. The Book Fair will be a part of Friday Fun-Day, but will start a few days early (on May 31st) so students can start their book wish lists (preview: https://www.scholastic.com/bf/coburg). Additional details, PayPal link, and sign-ups for volunteer help will be emailed next week.

Volunteers:
Thank you to our volunteers of the past week, Heather, Rose, Donna, Stacey, Liz, Kelsey, Amanda, Elaine, Marilee, Karen, Katelyn, Jen & Melissa! You are SO appreciated!
We are in need of volunteers to help at our upcoming Encanto music performance on May 24! We need help in the days leading up to the event to set up (and shine up) the chairs and risers, the day of we'll need help with set up and tear down. If you can help out, please let us know asap by emailing Katie at community@coburgcharter.org
Food Boxes:
We are excited to announce a new program we’re rolling out with help from our friends over at the local Coburg Food Pantry! Starting May 13, each Friday we will put together a bag of food for your student to take home for your family. If your family could benefit from a little extra food over the weekend we would LOVE to help!
You don’t need to qualify for any certain thing to take a bag of food home…if it’s helpful for your family we want you to take one! If you know you want one, please email us back to let us know how many people you have at home so we can stock your bag appropriately. It’s also ok to just show up and grab one, but to make sure we have enough it's best to reserve yours.
The first bags will be given out Friday, May 13. They will be placed by the front doors with a label for family size.
