VOLUNTEERS NEEDED- International Night

We are in need of families to host a country!

International Night is a celebration of CES’s cultural diversity! This cultural extravaganza will take place on May 25, 2023 from 6-8pm.

It is an excellent way for our children to share their culture and to learn about other countries.

• During the first part of the evening (6:00 – 7:00), families may visit each country to get a sampling of the country’s culture.

• During the second part of the evening (7:00 – 8:00), families will enjoy performances originating from the various countries on display.

 If you would like to sign up to represent countries, please contact Xinran Li at xinranli@utexas.edu or

Xin Gao at umxingao@gmail.com, International Night Committee.

VOLUNTEERS ARE NEEDED to represent countries! Team with your family and friends and bring the cultures you celebrate to CES!!!

Young Author’s Templates 2018

Every year the CES PTA offers each student the opportunity to “publish” a book. Students write their own creative story, type it into a template, cut and paste the story into a blank book, and then illustrate their book. All parents are invited to a grade-wide Young Authors Tea to celebrate their child’s accomplishment. The Young Authors tradition has given students not only a useful lesson in creative writing and project completion, but also a keepsake of their literary development at CES.

The 2018 templates are available for download via the links below.
