Updates

This afternoon, a call from our automated call system went out to parents of middle school students with directions for scheduling parent conferences.  Conferences will take place November 4th and 12th from 3:15 - 6:30 p.m.  To schedule conferences, you simply need to make one phone call to our secretary, Mrs. Bednar, at 472-6505 between the hours of 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. prior to the conference date you plan to attend.  She will schedule an appointment with the teachers you would like to meet with.  

Thank you to all of the individuals and groups who helped to make this year's Safe Halloween Night and Halloween Dance a great success.  We hosted 372 kids for Safe Halloween Night, and roughly two thirds of our middle school students for the dance.  Without the help of our staff, students, and PTO members, this would not have been possible.  Thank you as well to the parents and children who attended the event.

Safe Halloween Night - Wednesday, 10/28 - 6 - 8 p.m.

The second annual Central Cambria Safe Halloween Night will be happening this Wednesday evening.  The event is open to all children, ages newborn through 5th grade, residing within the Central Cambria School District.  This event will feature:

• Trick or Treating in the 6th grade hallway, sponsored by various clubs, groups, and teams.
• A Halloween photo setup where kids can have their picture taken.
• 10 different games and activities in the middle school gym, sponsored by the Cambria and Jackson Elementary PTO organizations.
• A "haunted hallway" for those brave enough to enter, sponsored by the Interact Club.
• A costume exhibition to close the festivities

While this event is happening, there will be a Halloween Dance in the high school cafeteria for students in grades 6 through 8.  Cost of admission to the dance is $3, or $1 with a canned food donation.

We hope to see you Wednesday night for a spooktacular evening!
