Every year, like clockwork, Mr. Ray rounds up the WES and CMS crews for the legendary pre-school-year pilgrimage to Eischen’s. Last night did not disappoint — great food, even better company, and one slightly dramatic moment when the bus A/C wasn't working quite right. 🥵

Enter Teacher of the Year Rhett Blundell, who literally saved the day and fixed it like a champ. 👏🎉

Huge thanks to Sarah Kerr for being their fearless driver — they made it there and back safely, full of fried chicken and okra, and ready to take on the new school year!🌪️🍎🚌

#cpsreds #BuildingChampions #StaffTraditions #BackToSchool

📵 New Personal Electronic Device Policy 📵

Starting this school year, students must keep phones turned off and stored in backpacks from bell to bell. This includes smart watches, earbuds, and other personal electronic devices.

✅ Exceptions for medical/emergency use
📲 School-issued devices = OK for learning
🚫 No distractions. No disruptions.

We encourage everyone to take some time to review our CPS Board of Education policy on personal electronic devices, which you can find on our district website: https://5il.co/3meqv
