September Community School Newsletter 2023

September is Attendance Awareness Month

Every day a student is in school is an opportunity to learn, build relationships, and access support!  Regular school attendance is one of the biggest factors that can help your child succeed in life.  

Did you know that your child’s sleep habits are a predictor of good school attendance?  Elementary school children need 9 – 12 hours of sleep a night.

How Can I Help My Child Sleep?

  1. Set regular bedtimes and wake-up times.
  2. To be sure your child gets enough sleep, decide when your child needs to get up for school in the morning and count back 9 -12 hours from there.
  3. On weekends, try to stick to the sleep schedule as close as possible.
  4. Turn off all screens at least 1 hour before bedtime.
  5. Create a relaxing routine starting 30 minutes before bedtime.
  6. Keep the bedroom dark, cool, and quiet.
  7. Avoid giving your child foods or drinks with sugar or caffeine especially in the late afternoon or evening. 
  8. Make sure your child gets plenty of exercise during the day.

Copperview Food Programs and Resources

Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program Starts this Week!

The Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) is a federally assisted program providing free fresh fruits and vegetables to children at eligible elementary schools during the school day. The goal of the FFVP is to introduce children to fresh fruits and vegetables, to include new and different varieties, and to increase overall acceptance and consumption of fresh, unprocessed produce among children. The FFVP also encourages healthier school environments by promoting nutrition education.

Fresh Produce Market

Our Fresh Produce Market is on Tuesdays at 2:45pm at the front of school continuing through October. Bags of fresh fruit and vegetables will be available for Copperview families at NO CHARGE. Thank you to Rancho Markets and community funders for this resource.

Mobile Food Pantry

Mark your calendars!  In partnership with the Utah Food Bank, all Copperview families are welcome to receive 20 pounds of free food once a month.  Please enter through the Main entrance doors at the front of the school and visit the table just outside our gymnasium.  We look forward to seeing you there!

Distribution is from 3:00pm-4:00pm or till out of items

 

Lunch Share Bins 
Our students have been doing awesome utilizing our Lunch Share Bins.  When students have leftover unopened milk, fruit, yogurt, chips and more at lunch time they are able to place them in our share bins that will then be brought outside after school for students to access an after school snack.  Look out for the Share Bins when the bell rings!
