Canavan Elementary Enrichment Opportunities

Ella Canavan Parent Involvement Plan 22-23

A Message from the Principal... 

Welcome to Ella Canavan Elementary.  At Canavan, we encourage students to reach for the stars every day.  While our focus is on student learning, we work to ensure our students have multiple opportunities to explore different activities.  With club choices such as chess club, theater club, glee club, bell choir, 24 club, garden club, art club many more, the possibilities of finding an interest are high.

Our PTO is very active at Ella Canavan.  Through their dedication, they are able to sponsor many programs at our school.  Some of the programs PTO sponsors include MadCap Puppets, COSI, Kidscripts by Magical Theatre, agendas for grades 3-5, a book for every student during Right to Read week and field trips for each grade.  With their generosity we are able to extend learning beyond the classroom and provide enrichment opportunities for our students.  To learn more about our PTO, feel free to come to a meeting.  PTO meets the 2nd Tuesday of every month at 7:00 p.m. in the Canavan Media Center. 

Sincerely,

Brian Condit

Principal

Winter Dress

Weather permitting, students have recess outside each day.  A decision to have outside recess during cold weather depends upon the temperature and the wind chill factor.  All students will be outside for recess when the temperature is 20 degrees and above.  Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately.  Boots, hats, scarves, gloves and warm coats are necessary.
