Message from the Principal 

Cory Caregivers,

For safety, we are asking all caregivers to buzz in and state the reason for visit.  We also ask for each caregiver to provide an ID when entering Cory. Thank you so much for your cooperation! 

I want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for your incredible support in fundraising for our programming and staffing model. Your partnership is vital to the success of our school, and we truly appreciate your dedication.

As we compile end-of-year academic data, we are thrilled to see significant gains among our students. We can’t wait to share these positive results with you and celebrate the progress our students have made together.

Thank you once again for your unwavering support and commitment. Cory would not be the school it is today without your contributions and involvement.

A Message from the Health Office

Dear Parents/Guardians,  

All medications and medical equipment must be picked up from the school health office at the end of the school year. Please make a plan with your school nurse or health office staff for pickup. 

  • Medications cannot go home with your student.
  • Medications will be disposed of if they are not picked up by: 
Date:  June 3 at Noon
  • Summer Programming: If your student is participating in a summer program, parent/guardian must pick up the medication/equipment on the last day of school and bring it to the summer program on the first day.  
  • Medication forms for the upcoming school year can be found HERE.

If you have any questions, please contact your school health office.

The talent show will be held on Friday May 30th. 

Fourth and Fifth grade will perform in the morning from 9-12 and 

First through Third grades will perform in the afternoon from 12:15-3:00 pm. 

On the day of the performance, May 30th, please keep in mind that this is a peer show, not a parent performance. There will be many classes of kids in the auditorium, and there are just enough seats for that many kids. You are welcome to pop in and watch your child’s performance, or to get a picture or video, but there will likely be standing room only. Thanks for your understanding!

New Vocabulary Words for the month: 

catalyst: something that causes change

garrulous: talkative
