Effective April 20th, 2020, all of your child's assignment can be found on the

the gmail account that you sent to me. The new CES Kindergarten Crew Google Classroom link
can be found on the CES website by clicking 'students' then 'classroom websites'  and then scrolling down to the 
Kindergarten section on that page.

We know this is a lot of change in a short about of time. 
We thank you for your patience and understanding as we shift over to using all Google platforms.
