Prinicpal's Letter- September 4, 2018

Today was a great first day!  Please ask your student what their favorite part of the day was :)  For us, it was all the smiles throughout the day!
 
Regarding volunteering at Budlong, thank you to everyone who has applied to volunteer at Budlong this year.  While CPS designates two levels of volunteerism, according to number of hours per week, and task, I ask that all volunteers go through the more stringent of the two protocols.  Given the different tasks our volunteers take on, and number of hours per week, this will also allow more flexibility in the support volunteers can provide day to day and class to class.  This requires more steps from our volunteers, so thank you for your cooperation, and patience, during the process.  There's nothing more important than the safety of our students.  
 
After you apply, you will be receive an email from CPS explaining next steps to follow, including bringing in your photo ID to Budlong.  Please stop in to see Ms. Gorder between 7:45 - 8:15 am in room 107 to do so.  Ms. Gorder can be reached at aigorder@cps.edu.
