Welcome back CES Families!! 

I can’t believe that the start of the 2021-2022 school year is only a week away! I am Leslie Moore, your CES PTA President for this upcoming year.  My husband Ryan and I have 2 children at CES: Carter, who will be a 4^th grader and Kate, who will be a 2^nd grader.  I am honored to be able to serve as your President this year and look forward to working alongside parents, teachers, school staff, and community members to help facilitate a wonderful year for our students.  

My goal for our PTA this year is to continue to provide on-going support of our teachers and staff to ensure that they have the adequate tools for the best learning environment for our children.  In addition, I would like to continue to develop new programs and opportunities to enhance our CES Community.  Also, please know that as your PTA President I am here for you!  As always, should you ever need anything please don’t hesitate to reach out.

I hope you all enjoy these last few days of summer!  I look forward to seeing everyone back on campus here very soon!

If you haven't already, PLEASE update your family's information in the CES Family Directory!

Our online directory is a great way to stay connected. PTA members are granted complimentary access to the CES Family Directory! It is free to sign up in the directory and does not obligate you to join PTA, but we encourage that as well! We are using the “Membership Toolkit” service for our CES Family Directory, class rosters, online store, volunteer signups and PTA/room parent email communications. 

Sign up and tell your friends and neighbors about it, too!
