Using Gaming Systems to Connect to Google Classroom

Greetings Parents and Students,  If you have internet access and a Playstation 4 or Xbox, did you know you can use either to connect to Google Classroom? Mr. Schuba mentioned this in a post recently, and I've found some instructions online ("Thank you," Utica City School District in New York State for your directions.) The following link will tell you how to do this in a step-by-step fashion. The second link it so an article that also describes how to do this, but also includes how to find the Google Classroom app.  Using PS4 and Xbox (instructions):  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gwIY5gyrgG99qbB7PNTKVdIrUoy-PLs51uHB7Nue_cU/edit?usp=sharing Article on using App, PS4, and Xbox: https://edtechawesomeness.com/2020/03/17/access-google-classroom-with-your-phone-your-xbox-or-your-playstation/ Hope this helps. -Mr. Moore

COVID-19 UPDATE for CSI

Greetings, Parents! This is a follow up to our Facebook post from last night.  The staff is pulling together worksheets and providing links for students to practice the skills they have been working on recently in their classes. It is important that students complete this work, so when they return to school on April 6, we can resume class as normal as possible. We will also provide links to educational sites that students can use to further fine-tune their skills.  We will have packets available for students who are absent today for pick up after school. The office will be open until 3:30. As we receive more information, we will share out to the community as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.  - Mr. Moore

Warmer Weather = Kids Still Need Their Coats

Greetings Parents, this is a quick reminder to please make sure your child has their coat when they leave for school. With the warmer weather, we have had an uptick in the number of students who are not bringing a coat to school. Even though it is warmer, it is still too cold for them to not have a coat at school. If you can help us out with this, we would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for your help. 

5th Grade Cookie Orders

Parents:  The 5th grade cookie orders are in today. If your child sold cookies, please come up and get them. You can pick them up anytime this afternoon before 4:00. Thank you.

Practice Lockdown

CSI had a practice lockdown yesterday (2/19/2020) at 2:00. Local law enforcement and first-responders attended and helped us run the lockdown. I'd like to thank, and commend, the staff and students for their excellent response time to the drill. They did a great job of following our procedures. Thank you for being awesome! Mr. Moore
