Class Lists

Students are understandably eager to find out who their teachers and classmates will be! Monday, August 12, is CW’s target date for emailing class/team letters to CW Families. The student information on PowerSchool will not be updated/finalized until 8/12 and may not be accurate until then. Please wait for the email that will confirm your child’s class/team placement. Students will learn which teacher is their home-block teacher on Monday, August 19, at CW Meet & Greet Open House!

We are excited to welcome students back to school on Wednesday, August 21! Arrival time is at 8:35 a.m., and class begins promptly at 8:45 a.m. Dismissal is at 3:45 p.m. daily. Staff will be on hand throughout our school building during the first week of school to help assist students as they make their way to classes. Lockers will be assigned on the first day of school, and students will be able to practice using their locker combinations.
