The musical "Heroes All" was fantastic. Your children put much effort and time practicing, and it paid off with a wonderful performance. We are very blessed to have Mrs. Martin as our music instructor.
Our On Our Way to Fun in the Sun basket is in need of donations. The PTA funds are used to help offset the cost of field trips, pay instructors for RoboLab and Spanish, teacher supplies, and Literacy Library books. Please consider donating by 2/25. Thank you so much.
Friendly reminder… no school on Monday. Enjoy your three day weekend!
Please continue to encourage your child to complete the library reading program: Read to Succeed. Our class goal is to have 100% participation.
Peace, Love, and CCES Spirit...hey man, those duds are groovy! Keep CCES weird by wearing your "hippie" clothes on Spirit Day, February 20th.
