 Dear CES Friends and Families,
I hope you and your loved ones have navigated our first significant snowfall safely and are making the most of this unexpected time together.
I want to extend a huge expression of gratitude to our amazing custodial team. As you can see from the photo above, the crew enjoyed a well-deserved break with hot cocoa and donuts earlier today. They have worked tirelessly to clear the school grounds, showing incredible dedication to ensuring a safe environment for our return. We cannot thank them enough for their efforts!
Upcoming Schedule Reminders: Please remember that school is closed for students on Thursday, January 29th and Friday, January 30th for Staff Development and Teacher Workdays. We are eager to welcome our Cougars back on Monday, February 2nd!
Academic Updates: To ensure our students have every opportunity to demonstrate their academic growth, we have adjusted the end of the second quarter.
-
New Quarter End Date: Tuesday, February 3rd.
-
Impact: This adjustment provides crucial time for teachers to administer end-of-unit assessments and allows students to complete current assignments with excellence without feeling rushed.
Teachers will include these assignments in the second grading window, which has been extended to Friday, February 6th.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to me or your child's teacher.
Take care,
Mike Astudillo
Proud Principal
Columbia Elementary School
