🎉 Exciting News! 🎉
We're delighted to announce that Cordell Public Schools has qualified for the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) for the 2024-2025 school year! What does this mean? Starting this fall, ALL students, PK-12, will receive FREE breakfast and lunch every school day, with no need for free/reduced meal applications! 🍎🥪
We're committed to ensuring that every student has access to nutritious meals to fuel their learning journey. With CEP, we're removing barriers and making sure that hunger never stands in the way of our students' success.
Thank you to everyone who has supported our efforts to provide for our students' well-being. Let's make this upcoming school year the best one yet! 📚

This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
We are thrilled to announce that Cordell Schools will be providing school supplies for our PK-6th grade students again this year! 🎒✏️ This means no supply lists and no need to shop for school essentials, saving our families time and money.
On average, families in Oklahoma spend around $70 per elementary student on school supplies each year. Thanks to the generosity of our Board of Education and Administration, these costs are covered for you!
Enjoy the rest of your summer, and we look forward to welcoming everyone back to a stress-free and fully equipped school year! 🌞📚

📚✨ Attention Parents! 📅 Don't forget to mark your calendars for the upcoming State Testing dates! 📝 It's crucial to prepare our students for success. Here are a few tips to ensure they're ready:
1️⃣ Review any study materials or review packets sent home with your child 📖
2️⃣ Ensure they get plenty of rest the night before 💤
3️⃣ Be on time. Tardiness can add unnecessary stress to the student's testing day. ⏰
4️⃣ Provide a healthy breakfast on testing days 🍎
5️⃣ Remind them to stay calm and focused during the test 🧘♂️
6️⃣ Offer words of encouragement and support 💪
Let's work together to help our students shine bright! 💡 #StateTesting #PreparationIsKey #ParentalSupport #StudentSuccess 🌟

Please bring the pre-enrollment form and copies of the child’s state certified birth certificate, shot records, and social security card when you drop off their pre-enrollment form. Pre-enrollment forms will not be accepted without ALL these documents.
Children must be four years of age on or before September 1, 2024, to enroll in Pre-K and five years of age on or before September 1, 2024, to enroll in Kindergarten.
