Congratulations Syrina Chen – Yearbook cover contest winner!!

It was a great showing for this year’s Yearbook cover contest with over 20 submissions!! Out of this extremely challenging field, Syrina’s creativity rose to the top, and we are pleased to name her the winner of this year’s contest. She filled the page with color, thought, and vision.  Thank you to those that submitted drawings; the imagination starting from just a theme “spread kindness like confetti” blew our socks off.  Everyone submitted something unique which allows for a bunch of diversified entries (look for them around school).  Looking forward to seeing what the kids come up with next year!

We need your 2022 – 2023 photos for the Yearbook!

Volunteered on a field trip? Ventured into your child’s classroom? Attended school events?  We KNOW you took pictures. The yearbook will not be complete without the amazing candid photos that we know parents love to take at various events and volunteering opportunities.  Please submit your photos to our community website at LifeTouch to remove friction from your submission!

YEARBOOKS ARE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE

Don’t miss out having your own copy of Syrina’s amazing cover!  Yearbooks are available for purchase through May 4, 2023.  enter code:  1577523

Attention 1st Grade Families! April is your month for Staff Appreciation!
What is Staff Appreciation? Each year Cherry Crest families show their appreciation for our outstanding educators by volunteering to provide food, beverages, and paper products throughout the school year to help restock the staff room and encourage our teachers with a monthly breakfast. Each Grade is assigned one month to focus their efforts… April is your month!

Cherry Crest PTSA will like to take a moment in recognizing the efforts of the Grade-4 (G4) CE team (Grace Chu, Karen Ng, and Teoh Hooi Fong) for timely arranging the G4 CE activities for the year. The team coordinated with vendors and teachers to organize G4’s entire year field trips. Thank you team for your exemplary effort!

This shout-out is for an amazing CE team member, Elena Razmpoosh, Ariana (Kindergarten) & Kiana (Grade 5th) mother. Elena is an integral CE team member for both Kindergarten and Grade-5 and has shown incredible skills in organizing amazing field trips for both grades. Each field trip requires her to make arrangements with vendors, fill out BSD forms and keep teachers in communication, and her skill at executing these tasks are really commendable. Cherry Crest PTSA is proud of her and the value she brings to the community. Keep up the great work, Elena!

Each month one grade level of Cherry Crest families show appreciation for our outstanding educators by providing food, beverages and paper products for all teachers and staff.  Most items can be sent in with your student to be dropped off in the Main Office.

Families of 2nd Graders: Sign Up to participate.  Thank you for helping us continue this tradition of gratitude.  Questions? E-mail staffappreciation@cherrycrest-ptsa.org
