Our Spiritwear store is open, and everything is on sale! Start off the new year with new looks!
Don't forget to join us for Back 2 School night tomorrow. Teachers will have rooms open 5:00-6:00pm for students to visit, drop of their supplies, and meet their teacher! We can't wait to see everyone!
Returning Student registration is open! Please be sure to log on to the PowerSchool website (not the app) to register you student(s) for the 23-24 school year! Registering ensures your student is placed in a homeroom, has bus service, and has a lunch card when school starts on Wednesday! The office will be open Monday to assist you as needed!
The 23-24 school year meal prices have just been released. As a reminder all elementary students can eat breakfast for FREE on any day (CJSHS students are charged for breakfast). Students eating lunch will be charged $2.70, however students who qualify for reduced lunch prices will be charged $0.40.
As a reminder everyone is encouraged to apply for Free/Reduced Lunch by completing the application at: www.myschoolapps.com.
Reminder: August 1st and 2nd are new student registration at CCSC. New student registration is by appointment only, please call 574-967-4881 to schedule a appointment at CES. We are have appointment to help parents complete registration of our returning students using PowerSchool. Regardless of whether your child is new or returning, all parents must complete K-6 student registration forms in PowerSchool before the start of school!
When we completed the PowerSchool annual student rollover (this is our first time completing a rollover in PowerSchool) there were glitches that occured. We are working to correct this issue as quickly as possible. This glitch seems to be visible on the family end, but we want to assure you that the information shows correct on the school end. We will provide an update when this issue is resolved. In the interim, if you have or plan to register your child please understand that there may be some changes to student information, teachers, and other information once the problem is repaired.
Due to having one bus driver, Thursday and Friday we will have one bus for all JumpStart students. The updated JumpStart bus schedule will be as follows for the remainder of the week:
Check out our refinished gym floor! We even have a 3 point line! To help keep our gym floor looking good we are asking students to remember to bring gym shoes this year. Nothing fancy or expensive since they'll be used once a week, but ones that they can keep at school and not bring in rocks, dirt, and other things that may damage our floor!
Urgent: JuspStart Bus drop off times may be delayed today! Most will be within 5 mintues, however students who get off at the Burlington Dollar General stop may be 15-20 minutes late. We are sorry for the delay!!
Did you know that taking time to complete a free/reduced meals application can have a positive effect on your family but also on our school? That's right, many people who qualify assume they won't and never take the few minutes needed to find out. As a result, they miss out on the opportunity to save some money, and CES misses out on additional funding that increases with the number of qualified students we have. If you have never taken time to complete a free/reduced lunch application, we encourage all parents to fill it out. Or if it has been a while, these guidelines are set annually and seem to benefit more families each year, so we recommend families apply annually. And in case you're curious, all students go through the lunch line the exact same way, with the exact same lunch card, so there is no way to tell if a child has free/reduced lunch prices. In fact, it is possible a free/reduced lunch student would never even know they qualified!

We are excited to announce that this year students in grades 3-6 will have a 9 weeks worth of weekly swim lessons! Third grade will go each Wednesday for the first nine weeks, then 4th grade second nine weeks, and 5th and 6th will go third and last nine weeks. Swimsuits will not be provided, and usually will available for end of season sales soon, so you may want to pick one up. Please keep practicality, functionality, and modesty (all classes are co-ed) in mind as you shop!
CES is currently seeking a dynamic, outgoing, uber amazing teacher to be the next member of our school family! Interested applicants can email rhufford@carroll.k12.in.us or apply at carroll.k12.in.us.
Reminder: The 2023-24 school brings with it the implementation of late start Wednesdays! Buses and the school day will be delayed 1 hour to allow for staff professional development and student data analysis. This will be every Wednesday (with exception of the first and last day of school and the day before Christmas Vacation, which are all 8:10 start times). We will be sharing more information in the near future, but it's never to early to begin planning for this new procedure!
Back to School Night is coming! Meet the teachers, visit classrooms, and see friends on August 8 from 5:00-6:00pm. We look forward to seeing everyone then!
