Principal Message

CES Families,

October 22nd Parent Teacher Conference scheduling is now open! Families can now log in to Skyward Family Access to schedule their conference for October 22nd from 11:00 a.m.-7:00 p.m. Each family will be able to select a 15-minute time slot to meet with their child’s teacher.

Tomorrow marks the start of Socktober at Clinton Elementary School! 

Throughout the month, we will be collecting NEW socks to donate to local shelters and outreach programs in our community. Students can bring their new sock donations to the collection table outside the front office.

Let’s fill the table with socks and make a difference in our community, one pair at a time! 

See you tomorrow! 

Warmly,
Mrs. Collins

October Character Trait- Responsibility

For the month of October, our focus will be on Responsibility. Students will be learning about and practicing how to:
  • Take ownership of their actions and choices.
  • Follow through on commitments and complete tasks.
  • Make safe, respectful decisions at school and in the community.
We invite you to reinforce this trait at home by encouraging your child to take responsibility in age-appropriate ways, such as completing chores, managing their belongings, and being accountable for their words and actions.

Thank you for your continued support in helping our students grow as responsible learners and community members.
 

Attendance Matters!

If your child is absent and has been seen by a doctor please remember to bring doctor notes into school as soon as possible. Also keep in mind that arriving late to school 5 times in one trimester will constitute the equivalent of one absence.
