Welcome back to school.

The process of getting ready for school is daunting, as is form completion and return so we’ll keep this brief.

• Communication breeds commitment.
• Taking an active role in your student’s school demonstrates that school is important and this has shown to have academic benefits. 
• Showing up at school and school functions means you get to find out what is really going on.
• Parents of color are way under represented at Center School functions and events.
• This is the year of the challenge.  Each of you can reach out and participate in some way.
• The CSCA Board is committed to making all events accessible to all families.  If there is a problem with members of your family participating, please let us know.  Call Sabrina at 206.783.5863 or email Paul at CSCA@me.com.  We will find a way to help you to participate. 
• Translation services are available from the district at no cost to the CSCA or The Center School.  Let us know what languages you need and we will MAKE IT HAPPEN.
• School to home communication will be accomplished electronically thru the BLAST when possible.  When families have not provided an email address, students will get paper copies to take home.  A “Robo-Call” will come home to let you know that there is something to read about school.
• The Center School is a special place and more and more people are figuring that out.  There is a ton of stuff to do and myriad ways to participate.
• In the spirit of communication we are committed to keeping the Website up to date and the community involved.
