ILEAD: BACK TO SCHOOL

Welcome!

Can you believe it is already time to start another school year?  The summer has zoomed by quickly and our teachers have worked very hard in order to be ready for a new year!  Mr. Ralph is a SUPER HERO, he always gives his heart and soul to preparing our school and we are thankful to have him!

We have several new faces joining us this year and I'd like to take a few minutes to introduce them.

Kate Luckett comes to us as a recent graduate of the University of Louisville.  Ms. Luckett joins us as a special education teacher, teaching one of our MSD units.  


Kelly Siegel joins us after teaching 3rd grade at Trunnell Elementary in JCPS.  She will be teaching 1st grade.
Heather Patterson joins us from St. Margaret-Mary where she has taught 5th grade.  Ms. Patterson will be teaching 2/3 grade.
Mignon Dupuis joins us with 18 years experience from Simpsonville Elementary.  Ms. Dupuis will be teaching 4th grade.

Clay Williams joins us from teaching in Oklahoma with 20 years experience.  Mr. Williams will be teaching 4/5 grade.

Upcoming Events:

Thursday, August 3, 2017:  Kindergarten Open House -- 4:00 - 6:00p
Monday, August 7, 2017:  Grades 1 - 5 Open House -- 3:00 - 6:00p
Wednesday, August 9, 2017:  FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!

 Please make every attempt to attend our open houses.  This is a great time to meet the teachers, pay fees, put money in your child's lunch account, join Infinite Campus or Enews, get car rider tags and much, much more!  We look forward to seeing you!


On the first day of school and every day -- the school will open its' doors at 8:30 each day with instruction beginning at 9:00 each day.  School ends at 3:40p.  Please check the student agenda for information about attendance and how to let us know when your child is going to be absent, what is considered excused and unexcused absences.  Please remember, if a child is late to school or checked out early, he/she is considered tardy.

Please be respectful of our instructional day, we ask that parents dropping students off on the first day exit the building by 9:00a.  We have 170 days to ensure that your child receives the best education, so we start on Day 1!  Thank you for allowing your child to walk to his/her classroom on their own starting on Day 2.  We are working to build leadership skills and independence with all of our students.  

As always, please call us if you have any questions 502-869-7400 or I welcome any questions via email julie.skeens@bullitt.kyschools.us

We can't wait to see our CES Student Leaders!

The Faculty/Staff of CES and Mrs. Skeens
