K parents: We are excited for our guests today. Arena Road for carline is open for parking. Please be mindful of not blocking anyone in when parking. All guests will need to come to the office for a visitor's pass.

Parents, Just wanted to clarify since we have been getting alot of phone calls, 1st grade Grandparents day starts at 1:00 p.m.

PreK and 1st grade parents: Today your classes are having something in the classroom for grandparents and then if they would like they can take their grandchild to the book fair. This is totally optional. We are opening the carline gate on Arena Road, to help with parking. Please let them know there is paring on Arena Road carline and they need to come to the office for a Visitor's badge before going to the classrooms.

Parents, In coordination with the Lincoln Parish Sheriff's department, a drill was conducted of the new emergency alert app, Rave. The alert was only to test the system notification. No one was ever in any danger. Students did not practice for a lockdown drill. This was for the alert system and CES staff only.

2nd- 5th Grade Parents: We will begin our Open House at 5:30pm in the gym. We hope to see everyone tonight. The Book Fair will also be open after open house ends for you to shop for your child. We look forward to seeing each of you tonight. PTO has a QR code when you walk in the door for you to sign up to be contacted about events or to volunteer. If you can't use the QR code there are sign up sheets on the table when you walk in the gym.

Reminder: 2nd-5th grade Open House is tomorrow 5:30-6:30.pm. We will meet in the gym for a quick welcome and then break off into grade levels meetings. The book fair will be open 6:30-7:30 afterwards. We look forward to seeing each of you.
