Birthdays and Books 📚🎂








CES proudly celebrated Patriot Day today! Students made patriotic hats and took time to honor and thank our first responders for all they do for our school and community.



We’re so grateful for our Oasis Intergenerational Tutoring volunteers! This week, our tutors participated in training as they prepare to provide CES students with extra practice, encouragement, and one-on-one support. ❤️
This year, our Oasis program is expanding beyond literacy to include math support, too! Volunteers work one-on-one with students in K-1st grade building skills, confidence, and special connections throughout the school year.
Pictured are a few of our awesome volunteers, along with Oasis Coordinator Mandy Plybon. We’re thankful for the time, care, and encouragement they give our Hornets!

Alan Lubert, longtime Community Relations Manager for Ronald McDonald House Charities, joined us during today’s lunch shifts to encourage our students to pull together for a great cause! ❤️
CES is collecting pop tabs to help support the 7th Ronald McDonald House in the Kansas City area. The classroom that collects the most tabs will earn an ice cream party! 🍦
Start saving those tabs—let’s "pull" together, CES!



CES Homecoming Spirit 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 keepsake and the opportunity to sit in the yellow sunshine chair over the next week to promote kindness throughout CES!
Wesley Ferguson (Miss Snyder’s 1st Grade)
Wesley is quick to offer a hand to help and does it with a smile. He's been spotted out on the playground helping another student learn to shoot a basketball. Wesley is also willing to escort other students to make sure they find their way at CES. Great Work, Wesley!
Shia Morehead (Mrs. Howe’s 2nd Grade)
Shia is a kind and thoughtful member of 2nd Grade. She notices when classmates need support and will step in without being asked. Whether it is to share supplies or help an upset peer, she is always willing to be there for them. Way to let your kindness shine, Shia!
Colton Newton (Mrs. Dodson’s 4th Grade)
Colton is such a positive light in our classroom! He is always helping out classmates if they need something, greets everyone with a smile, and gives the best hugs! We are so glad he is in our classroom this year!

Bus 11 driver Mr. Parks gave a BIG shoutout this morning to our elementary Bus 11 riders for their exceptional behavior on the way to CES!
We love hearing about our Hornets making great choices and showing their best behavior!
Well done, Bus 11 Hornets! Keep up the great work!

Today, our students participated in bus safety and evacuation training, and the learning will continue tomorrow. These important lessons help students understand how to stay safe while riding the bus and what to do in the event of an emergency.
