The CES Community participated in a Run for a Reason fundraiser. The community raised money for the Amazon Conservation Association. Parents, staff members, and students enjoyed running and walking together at recess.
We had a Veterans Day assembly with Captain Dan Geraghty, a former US Army Infantry Officer. Captain Geraghty's missions included:
- a Diplomatic Exchange Program with the Chilean Army in South America
- serving as a first responder in Connecticut as an Operations Commander following the attacks of 9/11/2001.
Captain Geraghty also served as the Commander of C (Charlie) Company, 1-102 Infantry and deployed a platoon to Iraq in 2004. He has also taught Leadership as an Instructor of Officer Candidate School (OCS). Captain Geraghty is US Army Ranger, Airborne, and Air Assault Qualified. Captain Geraghty spoke with our community about leadership, the core values of the military, and why it is important to honor veterans.
Hip Hop Dimensions visited the CES community for a Cultural Arts assembly. The students and staff were energized by the music and the incredible dancing. The third, fourth, and fifth graders participated in a "dance battle" at the end of the show!
