Dear Cedarbrae Families, We hope you all enjoyed a restful and fun filled long weekend! The first four days of the 2022/2023 school year at Cedarbrae school are officially behind us and we are looking forward to a wonderful year ahead with students! I have really enjoyed my first few days here getting to know the amazing student's families and staff at Cedarbrae. I will be outside the front doors most mornings greeting the buses and students as they walk across the street. I am excited to meet all of our families so please do feel free to say hi and introduce yourself if you see me in the mornings. Each week, I will send out a message to families that includes highlights from the week and information about upcoming events. We have several new families as well as many returning families at Cedarbrae School this year and we have provided some information below to some frequently asked questions.
