Attention Parents – Free Workshop Opportunity

The Delaware Department of Education is honored to offer a series of Virtual Parent Education Workshops entitled, “Parent as Coach, Developing A Family Dream Team”. Darrell “Coach D” Andrews, our facilitator, is a nationally acclaimed speaker, life coach, and is a father of four. Over the course of the next six months, Mr. Andrews will offer a series of virtual workshops in all three counties with hopes of motivating and providing parents with user-friendly strategies to assist them in maximizing their students’ overall academic success.

The first workshop, “Creating A Home Culture of Success Amid Crisis” will provide parents with powerful strategies for maintaining an effective balance for tasks such as remote/hybrid learning, work, and other family responsibilities. Below are the dates, including access information, for each county:

Holiday Meal Boxes

Click the image below to view the District’s additional meal box distribution sites on December 17, 2020 and January 7, 2021. This Thursday, in addition to our usual boxes, CNS will also be handing out 14 additional days-worth of breakfasts and lunches per child to bridge the gap until we can resume services on January 7, 2021. The additional meals are provided by the Harry K. Foundation in conjunction with the Food Bank. We thank them for their efforts to help our community during the holidays!
Let us take this time to also thank you for your wonderful support of CNS this year – and since the beginning of COVID-19! CNS would also like to thank the administration and custodial and teaching staff in each building for their help with daily duties.
It’s GREAT to be a SPARTAN!
