Dear CES Parents,
The results are in from our 3rd Annual District Writing Contest, and we had nearly 200 entries this year which shows just how much our students have to say when given the opportunity to write and create. We are committed to supporting writing instruction and encouraging students to explore all aspects of literacy. Every year, we’re reminded of the importance of acknowledging and celebrating student voices—and the educators who help lift them up.
CES is happy to share that Dallas Steffes, 5th grade, was one of the winners at the district level. We are so proud of her!
Sincerely,
CES Teachers and Staff
Congratulations to Mrs. Walton, 4th grade teacher at CES, and to Mrs. Kirkham, Content Instructional Assistant at CES. Mrs. Walton has been recognized as the Teacher of the Year here at CES, and Mrs. Kirkham has been recognized as the Classified Staff of the year at CES.
