Here are our very first pathway ambassadors! Today these trailblazers participated in ambassador training to prepare them for the important work ahead--giving school tours and sharing their work with others, especially younger students.
The Evans County Charter School System will be hosting three public town hall meetings to present the district's 5-year facilities plan. Projects under consideration include the renovation of existing buildings for a district bus garage, construction of a new football stadium, renovations to the Pre-K wing at CES, and expansion of some athletic facilities, playground equipment, and safety features. District administrators will be presenting plans, estimated costs, and soliciting feedback from community members. The meetings are scheduled for Tuesday, December 7, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. and Thursday, December 9, 2021 at 6:00 p.m. All meetings will be hosted at the Board of Education. The district will also be providing for electronic feedback in the event community members are unable to attend.
