Welcome to the TEAM CES website! The 2011-2012 school year has come to an end. Our students and staff had a wonderful last week of school. We celebrated the successes of every grade level that began Tuesday morning and concluded Wednesday afternoon. We had the pleasure of having the Honorable Tommy Wright, Cumberland County's delegate in the House of Delegates. He issued special certificates to all 5th grade students who earned the Principal's or Shining Star Honor Roll every 6 weeks for the school year.

This school year, our students and staff accomplished the following: successful implementation of Journeys Reading Curriculum (K-5) and Saxon Phonics (K-2); Mrs. Rebecca Beasley received her National Board Certification; recogized over 100 students through the Student of the Week/Student of the Month programs; 23-5th grade students were members of the Flag Team; established an Hispanic mentoring club; largest donation ever for CES in support of the 'Walk For Education';5th grader-Michaela Woodson was the CUCPS Spelling Bee Champion; The Talented and Gifted Students explored the world with the assistance of Foreign Exchange Students; combined the Richmond Flying Squirrels Reading Program and Accelerated Reader; 4th grade students built a house on the cafeteria stage with the 'If I Had A Hammer' program; IPADs and Kindles were utilized for student learning.

Over the summer, stress to your child the importance of reading. This year, the summer reading lists were created for students to enjoy reading and not have to complete a project prior to the start of school. They are to follow the instructions of their grade level reading list and maintain their reading log to show that they have read while awayfrom school. We want them to have a strong start for next year and reading is an important way of making that occur. For a good copy of the grade level reading list, stop by CES during normal summer business hours.

Thank you for your support of our school this year! Let's Go Team CES!!
