CES Little Library
Thank you to the Burnison family for replacing our little library. Troop 50081 donated the little library to the school years ago and originally Mr. Burnison helped install the original library. This gift to our school continues serving our community thanks to their family. We encourage you to check out the library, located by our music classrooms, and exchange books on your walks.
