We Are a Leader In Me School! We Are a Leader In Me School!

This year marks our 3rd year as a Leader In Me School! As we work to give our students the skills and tools to become leaders, own their learning and create and reach goals, we will also be featuring a Leader In Me segment in each week's Bits and Bites. For this first introduction, we would like to share how this curriculum has helped our school by providing opporutunites for our kids to LEAD!


In each classroom, our students share leadership roles that promote ownership and responsibility. For example, all classrooms have a secretary leader where their responsibilty is to answer the classroom phone. They have been trained in phone etiquette, taking and relaying messages- hearing their voices on the phone will immediately brighten your day!


Our 3rd-6th Graders have building wide leadership roles....

Writing and Presenting our Morning Announcements

Creating, Filming and Producing CES NEWS

Breakfast Cleanup and responsible for our state and nation's flag

Librarians that help organize and shelve books

Agriculture group helps with our chickens, garden beds and keeps our playground balls aired up

Social Committee- Creates cards for all students and staff birthdays and they go around each morning to deliver the cards and sing to them

Art Committee- Creates art and hanns them all over the school to make our building cheerful


Our Rockin' Raiders Assemblies are held once a month and presented by students to recognize Leadership Awards, Academic Awards and a Staff Spotlight.


Wiggy Wednesday- Each day, classrooms track their participation in their Lead Measures- this year we are focused on activities that can help increase their reading skills- and on Wednesdays our Student Academic Team tracks the classrooms' data as well as our building data overall. They announce our progress to the student body and organize building wide celebrations for when we meet our goals.


CES has also started a student council committee that we call The Lighthouse Team- they are paired with staff groups that have specific targets and goals and help to implement and work to meet those goals.

Reminder of Our Wellness Policies:

Families, it is that time of year where there are many forms of sickness being shared. This weekend our custodial staff will be conducting additional deep clean and disinfecting measures in classrooms and common spaces as well as encouraging thorough handwashing.

Please see the guidelines below regarding school attendance and illness. Thank you!
