A Message from Mr. Brown
Hello Husky Families,
March is upon us! The next three months of school will be very exciting with many events at CSES. This month we look forward to Read Across America and Skate Nights. As we make a push towards Spring Break it is important to remember the importance of continuing to encourage your children to read each night and practice math facts. State and end of year testing will be here before we know it and we really want each child to do their best as they “show what they know” on those assessments.
As a reminder, Skate Nights are provided by our PTO and are free for families. These are designed as family events so please come out and enjoy your time with your children. Please do not drop off your children and leave, but stay and spend time with them!
Let's be Heroes, Huskies!
Todd C. Brown, CSES Principal
Notes from the Office
Just a friendly reminder that student drop off begins at 7:00am. Teachers are not on duty prior to this and for safety reasons, students cannot be dropped off without an adult.
School dismisses at 2:20pm. It is important to be here on time for student pickup and to have your car tag displayed in the carline. If you need a replacement tag, you may get one in the front office.
