School Handbook
Welcome to the School Year!
Dear Students and Parents/Guardians,
Welcome to Cambridge Primary School (CPS). Our highly qualified staff are dedicated to ensuring that every student reaches their full potential. Our school is located in the heart of Cambridge, MN. The close proximity to downtown allows for a variety of activities, field trips, and strong partnerships with local businesses and community organizations.
We look forward to continuing to use the Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) structure to help our students develop social and emotional skills that will help them grow to be positive and productive members of our community. CPS and the Cambridge-Isanti School District were recognized again for sustaining PBIS for the 2024-25 school year.
We are also very excited to continue to develop the new literacy program called Wit & Wisdom. The Wit & Wisdom program is a structured literacy approach that exposes students to all areas of literacy. The new program will allow for consistent, school and district aligned instruction and resources. We will also be piloting a new phonemic awareness and phonics program called UFLI. This program will help grow the early literacy skills that are needed for the foundation of reading and writing. We will also continue our Fastbridge Assessments. These assessments are administered three times a year, Fall, Winter, and Spring. These assessments help track student progress in Reading and Mathematics.
Family and community support is greatly appreciated. We know that it takes a collaborative effort to help our students grow to their fullest potential. Please reach out to us if you are able to volunteer, provide learning opportunities for the students, or other collaborative efforts. Keep an eye out for upcoming activities and events planned throughout the school year.
Your child(ren)’s safety and educational progress are our top priorities. Please reach out if there are any questions or concerns.
The purpose of this handbook is to acquaint students and families with the organization of Cambridge-Isanti Schools. It is important to observe these guidelines in order to make the school year a success, for each of us as individuals and for the entire student body. Should you have questions on its contents, please contact your school’s principal.
