Donations are used to help give our students an awesome end of year field day and fun things throughout the year. If students get at least $20 in donation they will receive a 7th Annual Reindeer Run shirt. All CES students will complete in an obstacle course on December 14th at school. The race will end with a fun Christmas party in the classroom for students with snacks and a holiday movie.
