Please join us for Curriculum Night on Thursday, September 13th.  This is a great time to connect with teachers and learn more about routines, expectations, and curriculum.  We will also hold an information Empower Session, which is our new standards based recording system (report cards) opposite of the curriculum night sessions.  See below for times.

Curriculum Night - Thursday, September 13

Kindergarten and 2nd Grade: 6:00-6:45

4th & 5th: 7:00-7:45

Empower Presentations (Media Center):

Cherrydale Website

If you choose not to particpate in the sale of items, and would like to still contribute to the fundraiser, we are accepting tax-deductible donations made payable to the CRE PTO.  Our Parent Teacher Oorganization has arranged for  participation  prizes to be awarded to those students as well.

Please note that participation in our fundraiser is completely optional.

Cherrydale orders and donations are due back to school on September 25th and orders will be delivered on October 25th from 2:30-6:00.

We would like to welcome back all CRE students, including our new ones, for another wonderful school year, including our own PE teacher, Mr. Studnicka (or Mr. S)! In physical education we like to focus on skills rather than games. We will continue to work on our physical education standards and learning targets this year and our curriculum will be based off of the standards and learning targets. Our grading will be done on Empower.

 

The Twin Cities Medtronic Fun Run is a Family Events that Clover Ridge Elementary has participated in since we opened our doors. It takes place, Saturday, October 6th, 2018 at the State Capitol. This is an optional event where students (& families) have an opportunity to participate in a half mile or mile run. Forms have already gone home. Each person participating MUST have their own form. The cost to participate is $10 per person. Scholarships are available if needed. Students will meet at Clover Ridge Elementary around 7:45 am. All students that are participating will be required to take the bus to the event. Parents are welcomed & encouraged to ride the bus. We will return to Clover Ridge around noon.   We are looking for parent volunteers to help chaperone the event. If you are interested please call or email Wendy Ryun. All forms and checks (made out to TCM) are due back tomorrow, Thursday (September 13th). If you need a form, please email the teachers.

 

Students learned about our century club today, and were given a calendar. They were asked to keep track of their activity outside of the school day. If your child exercises at least 20 minutes a day they can write down either a 1 or a 2 on a calendar. A student can earn 1 point if they participate in a light activity like bowling, walking, or light playing. A student can earn 2 points for vigorous activities, like running, biking, soccer, dance, etc. These activities require your heart rate to go up and make you sweat.   At the end of the month, they can turn their calendar in to the PE department and we will keep track of points. There will be prizes earned for each student who reaches the century mark, or 100 points!

 

Lastly, we will be offering a dodgeball class after school on Wednesday and Fridays starting Sept. 26th through community education. Please call community education to sign up at 952-556-6400 or   click here.

 

We are looking forward to another wonderful year. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us either by phone or email.

Rehearsal begins October 2nd... Register NOW!

One of the busiest times of the day is during student drop off and pick up.  It is important that all students are safe and we efficiently move 660 students, cars, and busses in and around our school.

Safety must be our priority and we need your help!  Please be alert and cautious.  Below are some links that will help to navigate your arrival and departure.  Please be aware of students crossing and follow the directions of our Safety Patrol.

Please adhere to Parking Lot Map when dropping off and picking up students. Students may be dropped off between 7:40-7:50 am at the front entrance.  All parked cars must utilize the front parking lot. Please review additional parking lot suggestions to ensure safety and efficiency during this time!  

In short, pull forward toward the playground to allow for as many cars to load and unload at one time.  Please remain in your car as your child exists the passenger side door.  Families may choose to park in the lot and walk their child to the plaza.  No student should be unattended in the parking lot during these times.  Staff will be available to assist you.
