Bronco Family November Newsletter

November 2022 ISSUE: Bronco Family Newsletter

Hello Bronco families,

As we near the holiday season, we find ourselves feeling extremely thankful and grateful for all of you. It has been our greatest pleasure to see our own community of engaged CPP families continue to grow. Your record-breaking participation, excitement, and commitment to your student's success makes us excited for what is to come and extremely appreciative that we get to work alongside you all. We look forward to many new opportunities for us to connect and grow Bronco Family programming in the years to follow.

We also want to take this time to remind you that the campus will be observing Thanksgiving on November 24th and 25th, which means there will be no classes, and University offices and departments will be closed. Please visit our Academic Planning and Resources page for more information.
