The District encourages all families to talk with their students regarding the dangers associated with vaping or drug usage and to discuss the implications of this new law with your children, emphasizing the importance of adhering to school policies and laws for their own welfare and for the betterment of the school community as a whole. Your cooperation and support in ensuring that our district remains a safe and healthy educational environment for our students is deeply appreciated.
CES Parents, this school year we wanted to add an optional school-wide spirit dress-up day each week. Please do not feel obligated to buy something new or participate. We will announce upcoming spirit days on our partner posts and social media platforms. Keep an eye out and we hope the kids enjoy showing their school spirit!
Curriculum Night Update:
We apologize for the change in curriculum night start times due to other programs happening in our building. To accommodate these programs, Curriculum Night on 9/7 will go from 6:00-7:00 instead of the previously communicated 5:30 start time. Each grade level/teacher will have two identical sessions beginning at 6:00 and 6:30. Additionally, GT will hold a separate session at 7:00 in the library.
Students enjoying their time in the learning commons with Mrs. Keller this week. @CESCowboys #teamCES
