CES Mock Election








CES students had an exciting opportunity to learn about civics today by participating in an election organized by the 5th Grade WINGS class. They cast their votes on a range of important issues, including grade level representatives, new playground equipment, and the governor.

There's no place like CES on Halloween!











On Wednesday, October 30th, each classroom nominee for the Student Leadership Team presented their 30-second campaign speech during their lunch shift. Their topic: Why I Want to Be the Student Leadership Representative for Our Grade.
Each of the 38 K-5th grade candidates did an incredible job delivering their speeches at CES! On Monday, CES students will vote to elect six representatives, one for each grade level, to serve on the CES Student Leadership Team, where they will help make important decisions for our school.

Kindergarten through 5th grade students in Mrs. Maples’ Art 2 class have been enjoying their Glow Art unit. They are exploring different mediums that glow under black light. The excitement and joy when they enter the room and work with art supplies that glow is priceless. A special thank you to Paul and Betty Steele for providing the funds for this fun and memorable art experience.







Fosters Heating and Cooling, our Partner in Education with Mrs. Daugherty’s 2nd grade class, visited today to deliver fun games and fantastic prizes for the kids, along with a thoughtful card and gift card to support the classroom. We are so grateful for the continued community support here at CES!



CES Red Ribbon Week October 28-31


A huge thank you to our PTO, the China Garden Restaurant/BC Chen Family for donating and catering a delicious meal for our teachers and staff during our Thursday evening conferences, and to Los Portrillos Restaurant for their generous monetary donation. Our amazing PTO Sunshine Squad hospitality committee of parent volunteers, organized the meal prep, drinks, desserts, and food donations. Parents and students served and even delivered meals to classrooms for teachers to enjoy between conferences. This support culminated a great conference week with an incredible gesture and a wonderful treat for our CES/CELC family!










A big shout-out to our CES parents for attending parent-teacher conferences this week and partnering with us to ensure the best education for our students! Your involvement makes a difference every day.
