Weekly update for April 12, 2024
Dear CES friends and families:
It has been another great week at Columbia ES! Kudos to our wonderful chorus program, led by Ms. Eggleton, on a wonderful performance yesterday.
As a reminder, Spring Picture Day is on this coming Monday, April 15th! Group photos will be taken of each class in the GYM throughout the day. Order forms were sent home in Tuesday folders for any families wanting individual pictures. Please reach out to your teacher or the main office with questions.
See below for details on exciting upcoming events, including our PTA workshop and Family Heritage Night. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Take care,
Mike Astudillo
Proud Principal
