@Mrs_Sturges Congratulations Savannah!

I don’t know what’s better: successfully defending my dissertation or showing up to work the next day to this love and support from my staff and students. I am so lucky.

Aligned with this month’s IB Learner Profile of Caring, our 4th graders visited our library today and read The Jelly DONUT Difference. They wrote and posted an act of kindness prior to receiving a jelly donut as a tasty treat. 😋 🍩 @iborganization

We want to give a HUGE thank you to Arturo Flores from troop 800, who attended Hazel Goes Cook Elementary and promoted in 2019, for coming out over fall break and completing a large scale renovation to our school garden. @CVESDCook cookcrusaders.wordpress.com/2022/10/10/gar…

Our third graders have been learning how human rights and responsibility are to construct and support a functioning world. They have taken it upon themselves, to identify a problem and take action to help fix it in a variety of service projects. @iborganization @CVESDNews

@CVESDCook What a beautiful morning to hold our September award assembly outdoors. Recognizing students for demonstrating the @iborganization Learner Profile of Inquirer. Way to go Cook Crusaders!

Our students have been learning a variety of art techniques in Spanish, our International Baccalaureate World Language, this past quarter in their art classes. @VAPA_CVESD cookcrusaders.wordpress.com/2022/09/19/vap…

Thank you Feeding San Diego, staff, and parents for making our first School Backpack distribution a huge success! We were able to distribute 10-15 pounds of kid friendly ready to eat food intended to cover a child’s food requirements for the weekend. @FeedingSanDiego @CVESDNews

One of our largest turnouts for our Welcome Back Movie Night. So great to see our parents, students, and staff coming together to partake in such a fun event that wouldn’t be possible without the support of our parents and our amazing PTA! @CVESDNews @Principal_Garza

We held our first Crusader Assembly where we got an opportunity to recognize and honor students for modeling the IB Learner Profile of Communicator and for exemplary achievement in academics or citizenship. So proud of all of our students! @CVESDNews @Principal_Garza
