On Tuesday, March 14 “Pi Day” we will be hosting our annual Math and Art night. This is a time for parents to come to our school and play a math game in your childs classroom. In addition to the math game we will have student art work hanging in each of the halls of the school. After playing the math game and looking at art we invite you to the gym for a slice of pizza, and a cookie.

On Monday, March 6th we will be sending out a Tree fund raiser that will culminate on Math and Art Night “Pi Day.” Our goal is to bring shade to the playground of Cascade. On Monday we will be sending home an envelope called “Pi Day Tree Donations.” We are asking for a donation of $3.14 per child. 100 percent of the money raised will purchase trees for our playground. Donations will be collected at the office. Trees will be planted this spring.

This information of the Alpine District board meeting held on February 28, 2023 was sent in a separate email yesterday and is included today for your reference. The Alpine School District Board of Education voted to approve a formal boundary study and potential closure affecting several schools in our area. As part of this study, the proposal would alter the boundaries of Aspen, Bonneville, Cascade, Centennial, Foothill, Northridge, and Orchard. It is also proposed that Sharon and Windsor would be closed.

Please visit alpineschools.org/boundarychanges for the open house schedule, school board public hearing, maps of proposed boundaries, and to give feedback.To view the presentation given at the board meeting please login to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyjZeD77N5I.
