The Principals' POSITIVE Press

Happy Friday CES Community,

Welcome to March! It is crazy how fast this POSITIVE school year is flying by.  

On Wednesday night, our POSITIVE CES orchestra performed the National Anthem at the George Mason Men’s Basketball game. It truly was a POSITIVE evening for the POSITIVE students, the smiles and looks of pride said everything. Did you know that the CES orchestra was the first, and still the only POSITIVE elementary school string's students to play the National Anthem at a GMU game? This was the 5th time thanks to Mrs. Henry and her leadership! Please click HERE to watch the POSITIVE performance.

In case you missed the POSITIVE news, CES was featured on Fox 5 News last Friday. They spotlighted our POSITIVE trout in the classroom program. Mrs. Settlemyre and our POSITIVE 6th grade students did a POSITIVE job representing CES. Click HERE to watch the POSITIVE video clip.

Thursday, the POSITIVE 4th graders went on a field trip to the Natural History Museum in Washington D.C. They had a POSITIVE time exploring and learning while on the trip.

Today, our POSITIVE students participated in our monthly Green Hour of Power. The POSITIVE Students spent time this month learning about zero waste. Zero waste is a POSITIVE approach to living in which we strive to minimize the waste we generate. It includes everything from the POSITIVE homes we build, to the products we buy, the food we eat, and the way we move through our POSITIVE environment.
