Notes from Mrs. Pugh
Hello, Cecilton Families,
Monday is our last official day and then school's out for summer! Thank you for all you have done for the last few months to be our partner in education and learning. We are grateful for the strong support of so many of our families. We have learned along the way, as we know you have as well. We've struggled and we know you have as well, we appreciate you. You've done a great job jumping into the 'teacher' role.
While we do not know what next year holds, our goal is always to have our students back here in the building together again. We will communicate with you throughout the summer as information is updated and becomes available.
To our 5th graders, we love you, we miss you and we look forward to hearing the great things you will be doing! We wish everyone a happy and healthy summer. I hope we all find normal again soon.
Cecilton Elementary School will not be offering a Pre-School program next year. The program has been moved to another school in the county due to the increase in enrollment in the Elkton feeder pattern. We have thoroughly enjoyed having our littlest learners in our building this year. Please contact our school office if you have any questions about Pre School.
Stay safe and be well,
Mrs. Pugh
