Hello CES families!
All of you should have received (or soon will receive) a permission slip for your child to be allowed to interact with a medically and behaviorally screened dog from the University of Tennessee’s H.A.B.I.T. program.
While the H.A.B.I.T. team will visit only one classroom at a time each week, we want to be aware of any student allergies or aversions in the building so that we can set appropriate boundaries and make this experience a success for our whole school community!
If you have questions, please reach out to billingsa@clintonschools.org.

If your student is planning to stay after school next week for band tryouts, please fill out our quick digital form. This helps us know who to expect each day and ensures we have a safe dismissal plan for how everyone is getting home!
👉 Fill out the form here: https://forms.gle/ArbxQQNEG4n7Qfva7
We can't wait to hear all the amazing talent next week. Let us know in the comments if you have any questions! 👇


Next week the car rider line will be substantially longer when Kindergarten students dismiss in the back of the school at 2:45 with all other students. Please help us keep the line moving by doing the following things:
-Car seats/booster seats need to be secured on the passenger side of the your vehicle
-For everyone’s safety please DO NOT get out of your vehicle. There will be a staff member assisting your child.
-If your child still needs assistance buckling, please pull into a parking space before helping them
-Do not pull around other cars in the car rider line
-Please have your child ready to get out of the vehicle with his/her backpack zipped up and ready to go in the mornings (preferably with lunchboxes in the backpack)

You should have received an email from your child's homeroom teacher!
If you have not gotten this email please send an email to: chitwoodd@clintonschools.org !
We will make sure you are connected to your teacher & get your schedule for next week!
