Thanksgiving Feast - Mrs. Staley

The day before we left for Thanksgiving break we had a feast to celebrate! Thanks to all of the volunteers who help bring food and set up. The kids had a blast and looked adorable in their Pilgram and Indian costumes! Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!

Dr. Cody

Dr. Cody from Johnson Pediatric Dentistry came to visit first grade today! We learned all about how to brush and floss our teeth. Dr. Cody dressed some of our first grade friends up as teeth and we learned the right way to floss, we also got to practice brushing teeth on his animal friends he brought with him. Thanks Dr. Cody we really enjoyed your visit!

all of the parent support we have received for
this. We will be sending home a reminder over

How can I help?

At Coral Cliffs we have many great programs that help give back to the school. As a First Grade Team we wanted to make you all aware of each of these.
  • Box Tops
  • Campbell's Soup Labels
  • Cream O' Weber Milk Lids
  • Capri Sun Drink Packets
  • Used Ink Cartridges
The best part about these programs is how easy they are! Many of the items listed above are things that are purchased daily, it doesn't cost you anything extra to give a little back to Coral Cliffs. All you have to do is send the items to school with your student, it's that easy! You will never know the impact that it will have. "Last year alone America's schools earned over 59 million dollars from box tops!" Coral Cliffs would love to use that money to further the educational opportunities for these kids. Take a moment and cut out that box top, save that Cream O' Weber milk lid. It is the little things that add up quickly!
