Thank you, thank you, thank you! Women of Beta Sigma Phi - Xi Alpha Kappa, donated a Buddy Bench to the Chillicothe Elementary School. The Buddy Bench provides a place to go when a child is looking for a friend. When students see a classmate on the Buddy Bench, he/she can ask the child to play and make a new friend. The Buddy Bench gives students a safe space to eliminate loneliness and foster relationships on the playground. #hornetsr2 #youareawesome #makingadifference
(L-R) Women of Beta Sigma Phi: Sherry Parks, Karie Black, Ruby Riggs, Stacie Pauls

2020-2021 CELC Preschool Screening Information: Preschool Screening will be held during CELC Open House Days planned for August 19th, 25th, and 26th, by appointment. This allows each child and their parents to visit his or her teacher individually, make connections, and complete screening without distractions. If your child has already been registered for preschool, you will be contacted in Early August regarding a date and time for screening. If you are interested in registering your child for preschool, please visit the school's website. All children who are 4 as of July 31, 2020 are guaranteed entrance. Younger children will be considered for entry, with priority given to children who have or who are at risk of being identified with disabilities or delays in development.
