NEWS FROM THE NEST - MAY 2023
CES was incredibly busy this week! Our fabulous PTO hosted the spring book fair. The theme was “Book Land”. We had multiple events during the week such as the GRAND Breakfast on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Over 450 people attended! We held a Family Game Night on Wednesday, including fun games, pizza, ice pops, and more shopping at the book fair. Each event was well attended, and many families supported our school. Read more about our recent news!
