Make-Up Picture Day - Monday, November 1st
Mark your calendars!
Sumner Photography will be calling all the classes and asking each teacher to send any new students, the students that were absent, and any students whose parents requested a retake. If any staff members haven’t had their photo taken yet, please do so, as this is the last opportunity and last year’s photos are not available.

Traffic Safety
With the potential for more rain on the way before winter break, we would like to take this time to remind our community of the importance of safe driving habits. When it is raining, it is important to allow additional time to get to school and park. With the majority of our community walking to school each morning, the inclement weather adds many additional cars on the surrounding roads and parking lots. Please continue to model safety by using our crosswalks, making complete stops at stop signs, and driving slowly near the school and in our parking lots. Click here to read the Traffic Safety news article on our website. Thank you in advance for keeping our children safe.

IPSF: Ignite Potential 
IPSF is honored to be one of the outstanding organizations participating in the Igniting Potential community initiative to raise funds to support the youth in Orange County. Funds raised for IPSF today will specifically support mental health resources in our schools. During this turbulent time, it is even more crucial for us to support the well-being of the whole child, including mental health. 

For this day, IPSF Board Chairman Mike Breller and his wife Peilin would like to challenge the community to match the $10,000 they’ve raised from the generosity of their friends! In addition, all donations are also matched by City of Irvine. It is only with your support that we can reach our $20,000 goal!

Give today and double your impact!

PLEDGE DRIVE AND RACE TO 100% MEMBERSHIP
Our Pledge Drive still continues!  We are almost halfway to our overall goal of $40,000.  You can pledge and donate to the school via our website (cypressvillagepta.org) or through the envelopes that were sent home in the conduits last week (or this week).  Both pledge options include 1 PTA membership and that counts towards the race to 100% for the class parties!

Remember that total # of kids + teacher = the # of PTA memberships credited to that class.  And anyone can be a PTA member — grandparents, aunts, uncles, babysitters… just make sure you put your teacher’s name in the membership so that it counts towards your class.

There’s still time to win a pizza, donut OR popsicle party!!!

For our Pledge Drive we area looking for a school-wide celebration as well if we hit our goal of $40,000.
