Dear CCE Community,
Safety Policy: Check In and Check Out of Office
All CCE parents, guardians, and visitors are required to “check in and check out” of our Raptor System Kiosk located in our school’s main office to obtain a visitor badge prior to entering a classroom or any other area of campus. The Raptor safety software allows our office staff to screen and keep track of who is on our campus daily and is one of many important safety measures our school enforces to ensure that students and staff are safe during school operations.
School Policy: Student Cell Phones & Smart Watches
Students should not be contacting caregivers during the school day using their personal cell phone or smart watch between 8:10 a.m. - 2:30 p.m./3:00 p.m. or without permission from teacher or school staff. If your child is feeling unwell at school, the protocol for students is to report to their teacher or a staff member immediately to visit the school nurse in the office. The school nurse will assess your child’s ailments or symptoms and will directly contact you by phone if your child needs to be picked up or will allow/give your child permission to call you directly from their device in their presence.
Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding these two items. Your partnership and cooperation are appreciated.
Sincerely,
Sra. Dunn

Attendance Matters in February
The month of February at CCE presents with higher volumes of student absences due to illness, as well as Short-Term Independent Study (STIS). Therefore, we ask families to help out by contacting our front office staff and teachers each day your child will not be present at school due to illness or other reasons. In addition, our office staff and teachers respectfully ask that you provide us at least two weeks or more in advance when initiating the STIS Request form to provide the teachers ample time to create and organize materials for your child during their STIS. You may pick up a STIS form in the front office and you may access more DJUSD Attendance Initiative information on our district website.
