 Dear CES Families,
We hope everyone had a relaxing spring break filled with fun and happiness! Our students did an amazing job transitioning back to school this week. As we prepare for the final quarter of the 2017/2018 school year, Mr. Blount and Mrs. Occhuizzo met with each grade level to discuss behavioral expectations. Our goal is to be proactive to ensure a smooth finish.
On Wednesday night Mrs. Settlemyre was invited to present for the Awesome Foundation Award. We are pleased and proud to announce that she was selected as a winner of the award. Her presentation on healthy living amazed the judges and crowd. Way to go Mrs. Settlemyre!!!

This week we focused on HUMOR through the Positivity Project. Humor is a sense of playfulness and lightness. It is a way of looking at and describing the world that brings laughter to people. A person with the strength of humor is skilled at seeing at the funny side of things, bringing smiles and laughter to others, and identifying and communicating the absurdities in life. People with this strength don’t specifically need to be joke tellers, although many are.
Humor can have a dark side, depending on how it’s used. Some humor is mean spirited and bullying. The strength of humor that the character strength focuses on is that which raises the spirits of other people.
PTA Board Position
Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to be on the PTA Board. At this moment, the PTA only has to fill 1 more board position for the 2018-2019 school year.
