Team Curington: One Team, One Goal
Principal's Corner
Dear Curington Families,
We would like to thank our families that were able to attend our Dino George family event! This event was sponsored by our CES PTO. Our Walk-A-Thon fundraiser proceeds were able to support this great family event. This past Friday, our K-2nd students were able to participate in Bike Rodeo. This was a chance for our students to incorporate bike safety and have a little CES fun!
We would like to thank you for also continuing to help us increase our registration form completion percentage! We went from 327 registrations to 359 this past week! We continue to ask for your support in completing your child's returning student registration for 2024-2025. There are only about 5 questions to complete (if you are a returning student), and it can also be done on your phone. We are at about 63.43% completion! This data supports us in hiring the right amount of teachers.
Also, quick reminder that our Yearbook sales will end today, April 14th! This upcoming Tuesday, our 3rd-5th students will take our STAAR test. We are proud of our students and teachers for working hard in their teaching and learning this year. We know they will do great! This is a reminder that our campus is considered a closed campus for visitors and volunteers during STAAR testing days. This includes lunch times. We thank you for your support.
Have a fantastic week! Thank you for staying connected with us! Contact our front office team for any additional assistance needed.
Go Cougars!
