PTO provides so much for our students and staff. Want to know more?


The September 8 Evaluate Day is cancelled due to technical issues. Evaluate is used monthly in second through fourth grade to monitor student growth. Let's Grow Together is our first theme and all students at CCE are encouraged to wear green.


The Elsberry PTO first meeting of the year will be Wednesday, September 6, 2023 at 6 p.m. in the ALP room. Please come to the elementary entrance using the Explorer's Club option to enter the building. We are always looking for more parents to participate. If you have any questions in regards to PTO please email Mrs. Kaimann at akaimann@elsberry.k12.mo.us.


Ms. Stimac's 4th Grade students practiced teamwork, communication, problem solving, and collaboration for an activity known as "Save Fred".










Mrs. Keeven's class designed 3D campsite maps to kickoff the social studies unit on maps.








Students in second grade enjoyed a magic color changing playdoh activity while discussing the upcoming school year. Thanks for sharing Ms. Duvall.







The heat last week had our staff being creative for some inside fun. Third grade enjoyed a variety of games and activities during recess time. Thanks for sharing Mrs. Niffen and Mrs. Osterkamp.








Ms. Duvall's second graders spend time everyday getting to know each other at community circle and through a variety of back to school activities.







Please help us welcome Sierra Clote to our first grade team at CCE. Mrs. Clote is a graduate of Missouri Baptist University. She was inspired to become a teacher after seeing how some of the best teachers she had genuinely cared and wanted students to grow and succeed.


Today, August 24, the EMS and CCE Title I staff traveled to the EdPlus building in St. Louis to learn about the latest legislation from DESE. The team met and collaborated with various school teachers and administers to ensure that our literacy approach is both comprehensive and aligned with Missouri’s expectations.


We have had a great start to the school year even with the warm temperatures. At the end of the day Tuesday, we experienced a partial power outage that caused some problems with our HVAC units today. All of the classroom units are now functioning and we are currently working on the cafeteria and kitchen units.
At this point we are planning to follow our normal dismissal time for the remainder of the week. An early release time was considered, but the forecasted temperature is only a few degrees warmer from 11 am to 4 pm and therefore would not provide much benefit.
The bus ride home is our biggest concern for our students and bus drivers. If you are able to pick up your students Thursday and Friday, we would appreciate you doing so to shorten our bus routes as much as possible. Please communicate any changes from normal pickup routines to your child’s building office by 2:00 pm daily.

We are looking forward to day 2! Our students will all learn, grow and bloom and CCE this year.









The Elsberry R-2 School will be using a new student information system this school year. Infinite Campus will be replacing Tyler SIS. All parents with an email address on file were sent instructions and a unique identification code to create your new parent portal account. If you did not receive an email, please make sure all information is updated on the Student Verification Sheets that are sent home the first week. Also, please be patient with our staff as we are all navigating this new platform.


Back to school night is tonight, August 16, from 5:30-7:00 p.m. See you soon!
