Look at our kindergartners who earned a ride in the ABC Wagon! They know all of their letters—both uppercase and lowercase—as well as the sounds each one makes.

“Let Your Kind Shine”
Kindness is everywhere at CES! The three recipients of this week's awards were nominated by a teacher or staff member for showing exceptional kindness. They received a sunshine bag and the opportunity to sit in the yellow sunshine chair over the next week to promote kindness throughout CES!
Everley Wheeler (Mrs. Wolf’s First Grade Class)
Everley is a kind student every day, but especially when she welcomed a new student in our class. She showed him around and partnered with him throughout the day so he wouldn’t be left out. Everley can be trusted and is an excellent role model, not just to new students but all first graders.
Elly Karg (Mrs. Howe’s 2nd Grade Class)
Elly is always so sweet and comes in with a smile on her face in the morning. She will come over and give me random hugs just because. She is so kind to one of our classmates who needs some extra help. She partners up with her whenever she can, she picks up her things for her, and shows her how to do tasks that she needs to complete. She is just very kind and helpful to all her classmates and brings a smile to so many faces!
Harper Fairley (Miss Wilford’s 5th Grade Class)
Harper is always so kind and caring to everyone around her. She is helpful and brings an amazing light to our classroom!

🦅🇺🇸 Our 4th graders are becoming informed citizens! 🇺🇸🦅
Students integrated their nonfiction reading skills with U.S. Government standards to learn more about how our government works at the local, state, and federal levels. We were honored to welcome three special guest speakers — Judge Michael Leamer, Mayor Theresa Kelly, and Council Member Weston Baker — who shared their experiences and answered students’ thoughtful questions. Each guest represents one piece of the three branches of government.
What an incredible opportunity for our young learners to connect classroom learning to real-world leadership and civic engagement! 💡📚✨

Celebrating Our Veterans at CES 🇺🇸
This Veterans Day, we proudly honored our local heroes for all they’ve done to protect our freedoms. 💙
Our veterans were treated to a special breakfast before enjoying a heartfelt assembly. Each grade level performed a patriotic song, and students shared beautiful cards and artwork to show their appreciation. 🎶❤️
A huge thank-you to Mrs. Kim Taylor for organizing this amazing event and to our music teacher, Mrs. Lauhoff, for teaching our students such meaningful songs.
We’re so grateful to everyone who helped make today special—and to all the veterans who have served and sacrificed for the country we call home. ❤️🤍💙









Let Your Kind Shine”
We love to celebrate kindness every week of the year...especially during our official kindness week at CES! The three recipients of this week's awards were nominated by a teacher or staff member for showing exceptional kindness. They received a sunshine bag and the opportunity to sit in the yellow sunshine chair over the next week to promote kindness throughout CES!
Thea Jones (Mrs Wolf’s 1st Grade Class)
It brings me joy to watch Thea interact with her peers in her class. She goes out of her way to be kind to peers, no matter how the peer may be behaving. Thea makes kind remarks about her classmates and does things around the room, such as picking up trash, without being asked.
Bristol Busse (Mrs. Beemer’s Class - 2nd Grade)
Bristol is very helpful to other students and teachers. She is helpful to students on the playground, in the classroom and is a big help to even those that don’t ask but she sees the need. If someone drops something she picks it up. She is a great example of kindness and good citizenship and always does it with a genuine smile. She is kind to all and includes others as friends.
Maci Jameson (Mrs. Beck’s 4th Grade Class)Maci always has a smile on her face. She is always willing to help out whether it is helping a teacher or a friend. Maci asks questions for all to understand. Maci is a great friend and we love her for it!
