Good Afternoon CSUS Families and Caregivers, 

Thank you to the many caregivers and community members who joined us for last week’s Scholar Led Conferences. If you were unable to join us, please look for outreach from your child’s teachers about alternative options for your scholar to present. If you would like to connect with a member of our staff directly to discuss your scholar’s school experience, you can reach any member of CSUS via email. Most email addresses are a combination of the individual’s first initial and last name @cpsd.us. For example, you can reach Christen Sohn at [email protected]. If you need assistance finding an email address, please reach out to Ms James at [email protected].

Please see below for exciting information about the PCO February Break Gift Card Drive, and important upcoming dates at Cambridge Street.

CSUS PCO February Break Gift Card Drive 
The CSUS Parent Caregiver Organization is pleased to announce our annual gift card drive to support families in our community over the February break. We plan to hold similar drives before each school vacation period. 

How You Can Help: 

  • Contribute funds to our Gift Card Drive and the PCO will purchase grocery gift cards to be distributed directly to families by the CSUS staff. 
  • Kindly consider donating $25 or $50 gift cards from one of the following stores*: 
    • Market Basket 
    • Target 
    • Star Market
    • *We welcome gift cards from other stores, but the ones mentioned here are of particular use to our families. 
  • Please drop off your kind donation at the CSUS main office labeled “PCO Gift Card Drive.” 

Thank You For Your Generosity! 
Your continued help and support of these drives ensures that we can provide food security to more families over school vacations throughout the year.
