Hello CCE Families,

A BIG thank you to PTA and Amanda Maness for a wonderful Friday Feast last week! It was wonderful to get a warm and delicious meal. Thank you so much for always making our staff feel extra loved!

See you back at CCE on Monday! Enjoy the weekend!

Building Security and Safety Reminders

Please make sure to always come to the front office and retrieve a badge before entry.

Please remember to bring your ID and push the intercom button to state your purpose for entry.

Please DO NOT hold the door open or allow anyone to enter the building, all visitors must press the intercom button and state their purpose for entry.

We thank you for your support and understanding. Our main goal is safety for all students at all times.

Pick Up Reminder

Please remember that dismissal is at 2:55 and the front office closes right after dismissal. Ensure that you are on time to pick up your student. If you are running late, please arrange for an emergency contact to pick up your student and notify the office ASAP. If you are late, you will need to park and come into the front office to sign out your student. Once school dismisses, staff has meetings and is unable to provide childcare services. Students are not able to wait outside for you. Please plan accordingly.

Volunteer Reminders

Always bring your ID when coming onto campus in order to badge in. If you would like to volunteer, you must be approved through RRISD. Please see below for link to register.

Notes from the ITS

WE ARE ALREADY IN THE TOP 25 SCHOOLS IN TEXAS!!! Keep up the good Typing practice Comets!

Texas Keyboarding Challenge for 3rd-5th Graders

The online STAAR tests require typing skills as early as 3rd grade. In testing, the stronger a student's keyboarding skills, the more time they can devote to improving the quality of their response! CCE is registered to participate and all 3rd-5th student accounts have been loaded. Teachers can decide to have it as an activity during class or students can work on it on their own. Past RRISD schools have been winners of this contest! Maybe this year it could be us! Contest evaluates the number of students, words per minute, and accuracy during the window from Feb 10-March 31!

Digital Citizenship

This months lessons tie into Kindness Week/Month as we transition from January's lessons on Cyberbullying into Cyber-Kindness for February. How do we make our online space positive and happy one! These are great conversations to continue at home!
