Come join us tonight for our first PTO meeting this year. Tonight at 7:00 in the CCES cafeteria. We want you part of our team so come on out! *Correction: Meeting will be in the cafeteria NOT the library.

This is a very important week to celebrate! It is National Substitute Appreciation Week! Without our fabulous substitutes, our school would not be able to run as smoothly. We are a community here at CCES and they are huge part of it! If you have ever substituted in our school, we want to send a huge thank you to you! :)

The power is back! Have a great day everyone!

At the moment there is no power at CMS and CHS. Buses are already picking up students. We will be bringing students in in hopes power will be restored soon.

Happy Labor Day to our families! School is not in session today. We can't wait to see our students tomorrow! We heard from our community that it would be helpful to know more about our drop off/pick up procedures. We agreed, so we put together a quick 4 minute informational video. As always, if you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to reach out! Enjoy! https://youtu.be/1_v8Ap8CXhM

We had our very first assembly today to end our first week of school! We're so excited to be able to bring back school-wide assemblies this year! We could feel the energy in the room as the students chanted "CCES Rocks"! It's going to be a great school year! We hope everyone has a fun, restful weekend and we'll see you on Tuesday

At the start of the year, our teachers work extremely hard with our students to teach them procedures and expectations throughout their school day. During the first week of school we also practice fire and lockdown drills. Yesterday the students practiced a fire drill that was strictly teacher directed without an alarm. Today students practiced a lockdown drill with an announcement overhead. We understand that conversations around a lockdown can feel scary for some students. We want them to feel safe in our school, which is why we take the time to practice and have conversations around this. Students might come home today and express to you that we had a lockdown. We wanted to share with you first, so there would not be reason to feel alarmed. Thank you for being partners with us on keeping our students safe!

Attention Families: Our afterschool Y program is a great opportunity for our CCES families. We do however need to fill spaces to continue offering the program. Today is the last day for registering and we need you! If you are interested in this program please register TODAY!

We are beyond excited to see all of your smiling faces today! This will be CCES's best year yet! See you all soon!

CCES staff spent the past two days participating in professional development opportunities together. These opportunities help prepare us for our wonderful students to arrive on Monday! Here are a few pictures of teachers sharing their experiences in education with each other! We learned a lot about our backgrounds, our strengths as a team, and even created some fun taglines that we’ll share later as the year goes on! Lots of SMILES filled the room! 😀

We can’t wait to see everyone at Open House tonight! CCES starts at 5pm, CMS starts at 5:30pm, and CHS starts at 6pm. See you soon!

We would LOVE to have you join us tonight for our Open House here at CCES. Stop in anytime between 5-6:30 tonight to see your school, meet the teachers, and learn about some of the great things happening in our school. See you soon!
