Choudrant Elementary School

Donut Dash Update: We have met our $20,000 goal, WAY TO GO!!! We made some changes to student rewards because spring pictures are also on Thursday. We will have pajama day on Wednesday, March 13 and any shoe day on Thursday, March 14. We are watching the weather and will make a decision on Thursday, March 14 if we are going to have to postpone the dash because of rain. If we postpone it, we will have the Donut Dash at CHS track on Friday, March 22

Parents/Guardians, Spring Portraits will be this Thursday, March 14th. ONLY students that will be purchasing pictures will be getting their pictures taken. Order forms will be going home today or tomorrow in you child's folder. I have also attached a copy to print if you need it. https://5il.co/2gbwq

Effective today..... New carline procedures: In an effort to keep our staff and students safe, CES staff will not be approaching cars when they are calling names for carline by the gate in the afternoon. Please make sure the names are visible to the staff as you come through. Best placement for the car tags are the visor or holding the car tag as you are stopped near the digital sign. If the staff member is not able to see the names you will be asked to come into the office to pick up your child and sign them child out. As always, if you need extra car tags please let us know and we are happy to get you more.

To clarify: Our Level Up Tutoring is for our 4th and 5th grade students only. There was some confusion because so many of our grades are doing learning programs to close any learning gaps that they may have. These programs are during school. Only Level Up is after school. I apologize for any confusion.

Welcome back Aggies! Our short Week at a Glance is below. Also, if your child stays for Level Up after school tutoring it is Wednesday and Thursday this week. https://5il.co/2f5iz
