Hello Challenger Elementary Family,
We hope you all enjoyed your weekend!
Tomorrow we will be kicking off the Challenger Challenge!
The CES students and staff will have an in-school pep rally on Monday to kick-off our largest fundraiser for the year!
What is Challenger Challenge?
Challenger Challenge is Challenger PTA's largest fundraiser and starts Monday, September 11 and goes until October 20th! Help us reach our goal of $25,000! If we reach our goal this year the kids will get a free Family Glow Dance and Petting Zoo!
How to Get Started?
- Create your child's personal fundraising link
- 100% of the money raised goes to the school
- Students earn prizes for money they individually raise
- Teachers will receive money for the classrooms based on how much their team raises
Back by Popular Demand
- Prize Wheel Fridays: Students will get to spin the prize wheel every Friday during lunch for each $50 they raise that week.
- Classroom Team Prizes: Classroom teams will earn group prizes like bounce houses, extra recess, special parties ... for different levels their team raises!
Help us reach our goal and start fundraising today!
More From Ms. Joiner
Progress reports went home last Thursday. Should you have any questions regarding your child's grades, please reach out to their homeroom teacher. Teachers are in the process of scheduling parent/teacher conferences. Please contact your child's teacher throughout the year should you have any questions about grades, work, etc.
Daily instruction begins at 8am. Please have your child to school prior to 8am. Tardy and attendance letters will be going out weekly starting this week. Please remember that we can only accept up to 7 parent excuses per school year. Also, vacations/trips cannot be approved as an excused absence. Late check-in and early check-out can cause disruptions to your child's learning. Please be mindful of this as you plan. Please see HCS year calendar for our scheduled breaks.
Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns and we will be more than happy to help!
