Hello Challenger Elementary Family,

I hope you had a great weekend!!

Beginning of the year, assessments have been conducted for all K – 5th grade scholars. Scores were sent home in Wednesday Folders on September 4th. With that being said, it is time for Parent Teacher Conferences. If your scholar's teacher has not contacted you, please contact/communicate with them that you would like to schedule a parent teacher conference.

Tardy and attendance letters will be sent home weekly. Please remember that we can only accept up to 7 parent excuses per school year, and vacations/trips are not excused absences. Late check-ins and early check-outs can disrupt your child's learning, so please be mindful of this as you plan. You can view the HCS year calendar for our scheduled breaks. Submit your excuses to the front office or email them to Danna Freeman and Kendra Humphrey and including your child's classroom teacher.

Don't hesitate to contact me or the school with any questions or concerns; we are more than willing to help!

Here's to a great week of learning and growing at CES!

Love yall!!!
Go Eagles!
