Happy Thanksgiving! Hope your feast is just as amazing as the one shared in Mrs. Clote's first grade classroom.










We are very thankful for our students and our CCE families. It is always fun seeing our students enjoy our Thanksgiving celebrations here at school. Check out Ms. Amey's kindergarten class having a balloon parade.









CCE will once again be selling gift cards as a fundraiser this holiday season. We hope that you will order any gift cards that you might need through this program to earn money for our school. You pay face value for the gift card (no extra expense to you) and our school earns the percentage listed next to the gift card. Order forms will be coming home with students this week. All orders and payment are due by Friday, December 13 with delivery before Friday, December 20. Thank you for your support!



Reminder, school will be in session Monday, November 25 and Tuesday, November 26. No school November 27-29 for Thanksgiving Break. Classes resume Tuesday, December 3.


Thank you for supporting the Girls on the Run Food Drive.
