CFE students had an exciting surprise at their Rise and Shine Assembly this afternoon! Students have been working hard on their RAY (Reading All Year) logs, and today they earned a fun surprise for reaching their next goal of minutes spent reading.
The students were thrilled when a very brave Mrs. Young had to kiss a pig!
We are so proud of our students reading efforts this year- keep up the great work!







Thank you to Mr. Paske for leading our Rise and Shine Assembly today for our students in grades PreK-5. The focus of this assembly was on showing courage and consideration. Students learned how to create wins for themselves and others.
Congratulations to our students who were recognized for "Leading The Way" this week!


Our CFE first grade students celebrated the upcoming Earth Day in a special way—with a Book Swap! With the help of their families, students selected gently used books from home that they no longer read and were ready to share with a new reader. For every book they brought in, they received a “book buck” to spend at our book swap!
Students had a blast shopping for “new-to-them” books, all while caring for our planet by passing on books they no longer read!

This week, Mrs. Doolittle’s CFHS art students visited Mrs. Sickler's classroom at CFE for a special project. First-grade students had recently created drawings of their own unique monsters. To bring their creations to life, the high school art students transformed these drawings into ceramic versions of each creature.
During the visit, the ceramic pieces were presented to the first graders, who were very excited to see the final result! This was a fun and memorable experience for all of the students.

When learning that the second graders in Mrs. Masters’ class had also read the book, Mrs. Collier’s class welcomed them in to see the projects, providing a similar experience to visiting a museum. The second graders were all smiles as they learned about each project!
