HELLO LITTLE EAGLES!!

As we wrap up the year you all should be so proud of yourself for a fantastic year!


I loved being able to check in with all students K-2 for minute meetings, seeing how your year has gone, what you are looking forward to both this summer and for next school year.


Over the next 2 weeks we will finish up field trips, fun days in the class, celebrations and end with "Meet The Teachers". CES students will gather with teachers from next years grade and learn a little about each of them to ease into next year with familiar faces!


Class placements- Classes have been complete for the 2024-2025 school year. Please look for teacher letters and supplies lists to be mailed to your home the first week of August. Supply lists will also be available on our myeagles.org district page earlier in the summer.


Please do not hesitate to reach out to me by email over the summer if I can lend support or resource referrals. Have a FABULOUS summer Little Eagles!


You can reach me by email: ashley.phelps@myeagles.org or by calling 517-769-8557, feel free to leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as I am available.

Mindfulness Moment

Each month I will be posting a Mindfulness Moment for students and their families to try at home. This month the mindfulness moment is Enjoying Nature. This month enjoy going out in nature. Take a walk in the woods and listen to all the birds who have migrated back to Michigan for the summer. Watch as the forest critters frolic around enjoying the sun and warm temperatures. Feel the warmth of the sun on your face and enjoy walking through the forest before the low foliage builds up. Smell the hints of Spring-flowers blooming and the moisture of the Earth. Let the goodness of being outside after a long Winter fill your soul with happiness.
