Our Mission

Our Mission:

Central Elementary School creates a strong foundation for developing and educating lifelong learners who are socially responsible and globally competitive in the 21st century.

Our Vision:

Our vision at Central Elementary is Engage, Educate and Empower EVERY student everyday.

Our Beliefs:

We believe that:

All children can learn.
Planning and time on task increase learning.
Education is the shared responsibility of the school, family, and community.
Learning is for the present and for the future.
High expectation increases optimal learning.

Schoolwide Discipline Plan

Goal:

To provide a positive safe learning environment that promotes mutual respect and cooperation, we employee the Positive Behavior Intervention and Support (PBIS) model.

CES does follow the RCS Discipline Regulation Guide when students are unable to follow the school expectations.

PBIS Pledge:

S- Show Kindness

Actions:

verbal warning
reflection time/conference with the teacher
parent contact
