Message from the President

I hope everyone enjoyed a safe and yummy Thanksgiving. Thank you to all volunteers who created some holiday spirit around campus with festive door decorations. I am also excited to have some Watch DOGS back in action. I know the students LOVE seeing dads around school. And a huge shout out to the room reps who have donated many hours planning and preparing for some fun holiday parties. What a great way to send the kiddos off on vacation! I would also like to bid a fond farewell to Ms. Debbie Lazarou. Ms. Debbie has been a staple at CWE for the past eight years greeting families and ensuring things flow smoothly. We will miss you and we wish you the best of luck in your retirement! I hope you all enjoy a happy, safe, and festive holiday break!

-Lisa Rasmussen, PTA President
