Dear CES Friends and Families,
It has been another great week at Columbia ES!
I am so impressed by the way our community rallied together to cheer on and support all of our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders as they successfully completed their Reading SOL tests this week. Next week, we will cheer them on again as they take their Math SOL tests. We are proud of their hard work, focus, and perseverance!
Also this week, as you may have heard, we had some special visitors from a local farm—fully grown sheep and baby lambs! Through Ms. Rosemary Nevin’s leadership with our Get to Green Initiative, the sheep helped mow our lawn, fertilize a section of our grounds, and, most importantly, provide some joyful stress relief for our students and staff. We will see our new friends one more time next week, and it was wonderful to see how much joy they brought to our school community.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend. I also want to wish a very special and happy Mother’s Day to all of the mothers, mother figures, and caregivers in our CES community who are celebrating this weekend.
Take care,
Mike Astudillo
Proud Principal
Columbia Elementary School
