Dear Cunniff Families,
What a fun week we've had to send us off into April Break!! Our 5th grade raised a lot of money at our Musical Bingo Night fundraiser (thank you all!), and we had a blast dancing and singing along. Thank you to the 5th Grade parent reps for creating such a fun event!
We also had an awesome Battle of the Bands this afternoon. Our students (and staff) are so talented!
Tomorrow, Friday, April 18, is a 12pm dismissal. Please make sure you are on time to pick up your student(s).
We hope you all have a wonderful, restful, and sunny week away from school!

The Cunniff PTO is so excited to announce the details for Fun Run 2025 on Friday, May 2nd! This is our largest fundraiser of the school year with proceeds used to fund all field trips in full in addition to covering Field Day costs, social events, extra classroom snacks, teacher reimbursement, and more! You can register or log back into your account at GETMOVINFUNDHUB.COM and use our school identifier code 5d31d6a476e95 to sync up with the fundraiser. If you have multiple children attending the Cunniff, you can make a family profile so donations are automatically split between two or more students.
All are welcome to cheer on our students (the final Fun Run schedule will be announced soon). If you are interested in volunteering during the event (including setting up, distributing ice pops, and facilitating the runs), please send an email to cunniffpto@gmail.com. There is still plenty of time to get your CORI form submitted with Ms. Dangler in the main office to volunteer this spring!
