On Saturday, September 16th, 10 students traveled to Jam Fest at Statesboro High School. Jam Fest is an event sponsored annually by the SAI Sorority. The music clinic is designed to both teach and give extra performance opportunities to advanced 7th and 8th grade band students. The students are put into instrument sections and taught by a GSU student for an hour; then they learn a piece of music for an hour and perform the piece. Great job, students...we are proud of you. #RoarANDSoar

CES, students and parents, it’s PICTURE TIME! 📷
Fall pictures will be made by inVision pix on September 26th. We’ve included a few suggestions to make your fall pictures all that they can be.
Wear solid colors if possible. They enhance facial tones and do not distract from the overall photo.
Wear long or short-sleeved tops if possible; avoid sleeveless.
Let your child know that the photographer will coach and position them for the best image.
Reinforce a positive attitude by sharing how excited you are to see their school portrait.
Encourage your child to let their smile shine and remind them that their smile is beautiful!
The photographers will use a number of tricks to lessen glare, but sometimes it’s impossible. Ask that your child be photographed both with and without glasses.
Mark your calendar for September 26th. We look forward to seeing you there! 📷
In Mrs. Henry's class at Claxton Elementary School, students acknowledged Ms. Jennifer Smith and surprised her with a special treat in appreciation of her dedicated work as a Speech Pathologist. 🎁 Thank you for all you do!
