A brand nouvelle année scolaire is here, and I couldn’t be more excited to kick it off with all of you! Thank you for bringing your patience, kindness, and flexibility as we make our way through the joys (and dust!) of construction. Even when things aren’t quite picture-perfect, our community shines with positivity.
I’m always amazed by how people bring their best selves to elementary schools. Charlemagne is truly no exception. The way you support one another, our staff, and our students makes this such a special place to learn and grow. Here’s to a year of curiosity, laughter, and thriving together. Merci, and welcome back!

As most of you are aware, we usually send the Annual Permission forms home with your students.
This year we are trying a new method to gather the information we need: Walking Field Trips; PG movie; and Release of information.
Below is a link to a Google form.
Please fill out the form by September 19.

In response to Governor Tina Kotek’s Executive Order No. 25-09, all Oregon schools must implement policies restricting personal electronic device use during the school day. At Charlemagne, this means we will continue with our current policy that all electronic devices, including Smart Watches, must be off and away during the school day. However, exceptions will be made when use is formally included in a student’s IEP, 504 Plan, or a licensed medical provider’s order. Thank you, in advance, for your understanding and support. |
We will continue to offer our volunteer orientation meetings on Wednesday, September 10, 17 and 24, at 3:00 p.m.
Even if you attended the training last year, please plan to attend to review the information with us.

As we start the school year, consider options for the school commute. Walking, biking, skating, scooting, busing, or carpooling all support health, learning, safety, and the environment. If driving is the only option, try parking a few minutes away and walking the rest. It avoids parking lot stress and gives you extra time to connect with your child.
