Dear Cougar Cub Families,
Welcome to a new school year at China Spring Primary! We were so excited to see everyone at Meet the Teacher and we are ready to kick off another year of learning as we welcome our little Cougars back to campus. Our theme, Little Paws, Big Growth, reminds us that every small step leads to meaningful growth, and we look forward to celebrating those milestones together throughout the year. Thank you for partnering with us; we're excited for an amazing year ahead!
Your Principal,
Ashlee Duncan

Color Days
Help our kindergarten students learn their colors! All students and staff are encouraged to participate in the color days in the month of August.
Child Nutrition
Parents, your help is needed! If you plan for child to eat breakfast in the cafeteria the first day of school, please provide them with a name tag that includes their first and last name, and their teacher's name. This can be a sticker name tag, or a slip of paper stapled to the handle of their backpack, what ever means you have to provide this information. This will help out Child Nutrition staff identify your child and ensure they get a proper breakfast.
If you need to add money to your child's lunch account, please visit the School Bucks website here.
The lunch menu can be found here
Dismissal Highlights
Campus dismissal begins at 3:50 PM
All parents who choose to pick up their student(s) will need to follow the dismissal traffic procedures for the safety of each child and for proper traffic flow.
Each vehicle will need to drive through the designated lanes in front of the school. Parents will be directed to pull up to a numbered area where children will meet their parent(s).
Track Pick up will not begin until Monday, August 10. If you are interested in signing your student up for Track Pick up, please request a contract from your child's teacher.
More detailed information concerning dismissal can be found on our Parent Back to School Guide
Lunch Visitors
Lunch visitors will not be allowed until August 31. This will allow staff and students to establish appropriate lunch procedures and routines. Beginning August 31, lunch visitors should notify the teacher ahead of time so the student is escorted to the appropriate location. Visitors must check in at the front office with their state issued ID, and must be on the student’s contact list. No exceptions can be made.
