First Week Message from the Superintendent
As we enter our first week of school, we ask parents to please take a moment to review this important message from Superintendent Dr. Leslie Ricciardelli. Have a wonderful start to the school year!
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Welcome to the 2026-2027 School Year! We are honored to partner with you in your child's education. Whether by asking questions about their learning or through your participation in a School Advisory Council (SAC), PTA/PTO, or booster club, your partnership makes a lasting difference.
Your child can expect teaching and learning experiences that strengthen reading, writing, speaking, listening, and critical thinking across every subject. Our district's A-rating demonstrates a commitment to excellence and helping every child maximize their potential.
The Power of We is the foundation of our culture at CCPS. It reflects our belief that students achieve their greatest success when educators and families work together. We are committed to delivering Proven Excellence, creating Opportunities Without Limits, ensuring Every Student Belongs, and graduating students who are Prepared for What's Next.
To stay connected, please ensure your contact information is current and your child's Emergency Information Form is complete. You may log into the CCPS Portal using your Parent account or submit a paper form to your child's school. For easy access, use your phone to scan the QR code at the bottom of this letter. Thank you for your trust and partnership.
Sincerely,
Dr. Leslie C. Ricciardelli
Superintendent
