Fun Run Information

Registration for our Fun Run is open!  On Friday, May 20th, grade levels will take turns participating in the event beginning at noon.  The schedule will be included in Ms. Ciarlone's newsletter this weekend.  Warren Street will be closed from Chapman Street to Brookline Street and families are invited to join to cheer on students and staff!  This is our largest fundraiser of the year and we partner with Get Movin’ Fund Hub to make the donation process as easy as possible.  

• Please visit GETMOVINFUNDHUB.COM to sign up or reactivate your account.  Our school identifier code is 5d31d6a476e95.  
• Registering is needed for donations, but it is not required for students to participate on the day of the event. 
• If you have multiple children attending Cunniff, you can make a family profile so donations are automatically split between two or more students.  
• All proceeds from the fundraiser go to classroom supplies, enrichment programming, field trips, Field Day and more!  
• Please note that raffle winners will be announced and all prizes will be sent home with students after the donation window closes one week following the event on May 27.  
• Thank you for your support!

​Field Day: Volunteers Needed

Field Day t-shirts have been ordered for all students and staff!  Thank you to the talented Don Days for creating the artwork.  Arrangements are underway for the fun-filled day of school, but we will need volunteers to help all of the stations run smoothly!  If you are interested in helping, please make sure you have an up to date CORI check on file with Anne Marie Dangler in the Cunniff main office.  These last for three years and if you need to fill one out, it is a very short form and Anne Marie will make a quick copy of your license.  When buzzing in at the main entrance, you can let her know you are there to fill out a CORI form.  We appreciate your attention to this matter.

Teacher Appreciation Week Recap
​
Thank you so much to the families who volunteered their time and creativity to assemble gifts for the entire Cunniff faculty and staff during Teacher Appreciation Week!  Everyone at the school was so appreciative for the breakfast on Monday and the thoughtful gifts given each day throughout the week.

Belmont books will host the Cunniff Online Book Fair from March 20-March 26. An in-store shopping event for the Cunniff will take place on Thursday, March 24th, from 2-6 pm, where 20% of all sales in-store between these hours will be donated to the Cunniff School. 

To shop at Belmont Books online, please visit. https://www.belmontbooks.com/ .
To shop in-person, visit the store located at 79 Leonard Street in Belmont, MA.
To access the Cunniff School teacher wishlists, you will see a dropdown menu titled "Wishlists" on the homepage. Please scroll down to "Cunniff School Teacher Wishlists".

A coupon code will be used so that Cunniff can receive 20% of purchases. Here is the coupon code for families to use online for the Book Fair: CUNNIFF22. This code will be active from just after midnight on March 20th to midnight on March 26th.

•The CUNNIFF22 code should be entered in the Coupon field at checkout, NOT in the Payment Type or Gift Card fields;
•The code does NOT give a discount. It just allows us to identify which purchases are going to be credited to the overall donation;
•Gift Cards and Online Gift Codes do not count towards the donation. They’re essentially forms of cash, not products, and there’s no way for Belmont Books to control whether the gift card recipient might get an additional discount when they eventually use their gift.

Teacher wish lists can be viewed here: www.belmontbooks.com/cunniff-school-teacher-wishlists.

Happy 100th day of school to the Cunniff Community!  The PTO treated our wonderful Cunniff staff to some breakfast goodies this morning, with some special help from James (1st grade)!
