VETERAN'S DAY CELEBRATION
Columbia School District is proudly sponsoring a district-wide Veteran's Day assembly on November 9th at 9:30 a.m. at Columbia Central High School. We want to have as many veterans as possible attend this event to honor them and teach our students about the importance of recognizing service to our country. Families can also sponsor a FLAG to be displayed on CUES "Freedom Hill" for $2 or a FLAG to be displayed at CCHS on the front lawn for $15. Registration forms for this event are available in any Columbia School office. Also, click button below for more details.
The entire student body of CES and CUES will be bussed over to the high school the morning of this assembly to take part in the celebration ceremony. All families are also welcome to attend.
PRINCIPAL'S WISH LIST
Thank you so much to Mr. & Mrs. Umlauf for their monetary donation to purchase items for our indoor recess carts! (See Picture Below)
We are still collecting items to build our dream of 4 indoor recess carts to use when it rains or is too cold to go outside.
Thank you very much for your consideration in donating toward the wish list.
Trudy Wright, Principal @CES
STAFF SPOTLIGHT
Carol Ladd is our staff member in the spotlight! Mrs. Ladd does it all! She helps families who call or visit, students who get hurt and helps teachers with many things. This is Mrs. Ladd's 2nd year at CES. She has two boys in Columbia schools in 6th and 8th grade. Her family loves sports including baseball, basketball, football and watersports. They like to go to amusement parks. Mrs. Ladd's favorite color is blue, favorite restaurant is the Outback Steakhouse, favorite candy bar is Caramello, and favorite thing about working at CES is THE KIDS, of course! We thank Mrs. Ladd for all she does for everyone!
HAT, GLOVES & COATS, OH MY!
As the cold weather starts blowing in, please send your child with a coat, hat and gloves every day. It is also best to send BOOTS very soon so that the first time it snows everyone is prepared. We go outside every day at CES.
Many items look alike so please label each item with your child's name.
