Contacting Your Child

If it becomes necessary to deliver a message to you child during the school day, please call 510 644-8810 or come by the school office. Please make arrangements for lunch, car pools, babysitting, etc., with your child BEFORE s/he leaves for school in the morning. In the event of an emergency or change of plans, the office staff will relay messages to your child's teacher. Please do not ask the office staff to contact your child or interrupt class for messages that are not critical.


Student Use of the Phone

The school phone is to be used for business and emergency purposes only. It is available for use only with permission of the teacher or office personnel.


School to Home Communication

The staff of Cragmont Elementary School is concerned that parents are well informed about school activities. All regularly scheduled events and holidays are in the Calendar section of the website. Other regular communication comes home in backpacks, usually on Wednesdays. Please check your child's backpack for newsletters and other school communication on a regular basis. Finally, Principal Bradley produces an automated phone message that is delivered every Sunday evening and/or on an as needed basis.


Cragnet

"Cragnet" is our school email list. It is used primarily for the announcements of school events.

The list is "moderated", meaning that all messages are temporarily held in an inbox and reviewed by a Cragmont Volunteer before being posted to the list. For more information click here.
