Read Across America Week 
CES celebrated reading and Dr. Seuss by wearing stripes or a favorite hat.  







CHS basketball players visited CES 3rd grade classrooms to kick off our AR March Madness competition. The players read a basketball book and talked with the 3rd graders about reading, dreaming big, and never giving up. The boys shared encouraging words and got the 3rd graders excited for a month-long reading competition.  #CES #marchmadness #ReadingIsFun



Students at CHS are learning to have a servant's heart!  CTAE students interested in serving at the Community Center's monthly Feed the Hungry site completed a simple application.  Selected students attended with Ms. Channa Robinson and Mr. Bradley Hall.  After a morning of hard work, these kids enjoyed a special pizza lunch together.

Conversation is a part of all of our lives, and students at Claxton High School are learning to strengthen theirs.  Specifically, they have studied how to introduce themselves, carry on a conversation, and end the conversation in a positive way.  These skills were put to use last week during a Business Mixer, in which students "mixed" with business and community members.  Thank you to those individuals who attended and invested in our kids!

On this last day of CTAE Month, the faculty and staff at Claxton High School gathered for an afternoon social.  Mr. Bradley Hall provided information about CTAE (Career, Technical and Agricultural Education), and Coach Chris Oglesby presented one of the recently taught employability skills lessons on introducing yourself to others and holding a conversation.  The faculty then put the information to work during some social time made complete with refreshments.

BAM!!!  Students at CMS never know when the surprise will happen, but one day a month, students who have completed all assignments, have no behavior referrals or ISS,  and have no unexcused absences will be rewarded for their success. Today, these students were rewarded with board games, photos, music, and cookie decorating during 4th period. This BAM day was sponsored by our ELA teachers. We want our students to know that hard work pays off. Congratulations!










CES was excited to have students from the CHS Freshman Transition class come to CES and visit the classrooms to read a book for Read Across America week. It's hard to say who enjoyed it more, the older students or the younger ones, but the excitement was seen and felt throughout the school! #CES #CHS #RAAweek #ReadingIsFun










Read Across America Week
Day 1:  One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish



Ms. Teri McElveen, Special Education teacher, is quite the baker. She shared the history of the King Cake with the Culinary students in Mrs. Hart's class, and with students' help, made this traditional Mardi Gras cake. 




As part of their study for Black History Month, Mrs. Hendrix's kindergarten students learned about Mae Jemison in space, learned about and made their own traffic light, invented by Garrett Morgan. They also talked about George Washington Carver who invented many things with peanuts and the class made and enjoyed eating peanut butter! #CES #ExcellenceLeadershipFamily



How many apps are on your phone? Did you ever wonder how an app is created? Students in Mr. Sapp's STEM classes learned how to create their own app with the help of the online service, Glide.  Glide allows you make mobile apps from Google Spreadsheets.  Daniel Rivera and Dustin Hightower from First District RESA taught the students how to start with a base template and  how to plug the data into the mobile app from a spreadsheet. They customized their app and published it, and then learned how to add it to their phones or send to others. This is a launch for a mobile development app that students will develop to solve a problem. #ProjectBasedLearning
