CES Weekly Communicator

This weekly update will be how we communicate with the school community. Please check your emails on Fridays for the most recent school news.

It was a chilly week at CES. Please make sure your child/ren are wearing warmer clothes and jackets during those cold days. We go outside as much as possible unless it rains or if the temperature is 20 degrees or below.

Today, we kick off the PTO Read-A-Thon! Thank you to all those that have put in time to support our biggest fundraiser of the year. PTO is raising money for recess equipment.

Here is what is happening in PTO:

Read-A-Thon:

Chapelfield PTO is excited for our first Read-A-Thon this year. Kick off starts Friday October 21, 2022. Watch this short video to get excited for our fundraiser: Enjoy: WeVideo

Make sure to get kiddos signed up! www.read-a-thon.com/readers Code: 306219

Read-A-thon Spirit Week October 24-October 28:

Monday- It's a good day to read-wear a shirt with writing

Tuesday- Cozy up with a book- Wear your favorite PJs

Wednesday- Get tied up in a book- wear bow tie, neckties, or hairbows

Thursday- Read with a buddy- bring your favorite picture book

Friday- You Glow as a reader & Fall Parade and Parties (see below for more details)

Fall Parade & Parties on Friday, October 28:

We will have a parade and classroom fall parties on Friday, October 28. We will begin with a parade outside at 1 p.m. where parents can join us. Students MAY bring a costume to school to change into before the parade. The costume should be easy to put over school clothes. Students CANNOT bring weapons with their costumes. Costumes CANNOT be frightening to others. Our school community includes young children who can become easily scared when they see these items. If a student's costume is inappropriate, we will have to ask them to change, and it will be disappointing for them. Please ask ahead of time if you have a question, in order to avoid a problem. We thank you for your support.

For those families that DO NOT want to have their child participate in the parade or fall party, we will have an alternate activity. Please let your child's teacher know if they will join in that activity instead.

In case it rains, we will NOT hold a parade.

Guest Readers for the LAST day of the Read-A-Thon on Monday, October 31:

Some of our teachers are opening up one time slot for a parent/grandparent to come read to their class. We ask that NO HALLOWEEN books are shared. If you need book suggestions, please see your child's teacher. All guest readers MUST present their driver's license at the front office in order to come into the building. Please fill out this form if you would like to volunteer:
