Update- Home Learning for all of 2019-2020
Parents, we received word from the State School Board that schools will not be meeting in person for the rest of this school year. Please continue to work with your teacher or Educational Specialist to provide home learning during this quarantine period. Stay safe! Stay well!
Lunch Accounts
Some of your students have credits on their lunch accounts. If you want to leave this credit on account to use for the 2020-2021 school year, that is an option. If you desire a reimbursement, please contact the front desk no later than Friday, April 24th. One of the school receptionists will be happy to help you submit your request and answer any questions you may have. You may either email office@canyongrove.com or call (801) 785-9300.
