CES 4th and 5th graders learned about farm safety today. Thank you to the Livingston County Health Center, Chillicothe FFA, and the many volunteers and agencies for providing this valuable experience!
We enjoyed a great afternoon as we opened the doors of CES after school and offered tours of our new addition to our amazing supporters at our Open House! Today would not have been possible without their efforts and the support of our generous community. We are deeply grateful.
Where are we going? Destination/Vacation Day for Homecoming Spirit Week!
Our awesome PTO arrived today for the grand opening of the "Hornet Hive" spirit shop! We are fortunate to have incredible supporters in our community who supplied Hornet gear and accessories. A special thanks to our numerous donors, including the Coach Lauren Way Foundation, for their generous purchase of Hornet tees! Today, a few students from each class were randomly selected to take home Hornet spirit items. Throughout the year, every K-5 student will get a chance to visit the Hornet Hive spirit shop. If you have gently used Hornet tees or hoodies, our PTO is accepting donations. It's a great day to be a HORNET!

More Hornet High Fives!!!
Officials from Chillicothe R-II School District were alerted to a potential threat of a school shooting at CHS, as circulated on Snapchat. The threat claimed that the school shooting would take place on Monday, September 16. The threat was promptly investigated by local law enforcement, including School Resource Officer Mike Lewis from CHS. The investigation revealed that the threat was actually targeted towards a CHS in another state. As such, there is no credible threat against our students at Chillicothe High School or any other facilities or events within the Chillicothe R-II School District. However, to ensure utmost safety, local law enforcement will be conducting additional walkthroughs in district buildings on Monday. We, as district officials, are grateful for the swift response and thorough investigation conducted by our local law enforcement to ensure the safety of our students and staff.
Overall K-5th Hornet High 5 recipients this week! ❤️
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! 1st Grader: Remington Holder (Mrs. Brooke Wolf's Classroom) Remi is a shining star because she always notices when someone is sad or upset and is the first to offer a hug or a smile. She has a genuine desire to make people feel better! Her manners are kind, and she loves to lend a helping hand. Way to let your KIND SHINE, Remington! 2nd Grader: Colton Newton (Miss Gabi Hall's Classroom) Colton has the sweetest personality, consistently showing kindness through his thoughtful actions and words. Always ready to lend a hand, he is a supportive friend and a true role model both inside and outside the classroom. Colton encourages others and exemplifies what it means to be a team player. He truly embodies the spirit of a Chillicothe Hornet! 4th Grader: Cohen Potts (Mrs. Holly Thompson's Classroom) Cohen has a heart to help others, and he does it with a smile. He is always polite and is a friend to every student in our classroom. I love hearing from other teachers and staff about the kind things Cohen does around our school. Cohen also gives some of the best hugs each morning—you can't help but smile when you see his big grin and he reaches out to hug you!
Our September Terrific Kids are "Thoughtful"
