    We are grateful for our Cypress Springs Tigers!  Thank you for your continuous support.  We could not do it without each of you...from the excellent staff, outstanding students, and stellar families!  Recharge, refuel and relax as we enter into the holiday season.  Focus on your families and cherish these moments.  

    1. See you at Cypress Sprinters tomorrow morning at 7:15!  Weather permitting. The last running morning is December 3rd and then we begin again March 25.

    2. Thanksgiving Break is November 22-26 and we will return on Monday, November 29. 

    3. Please be mindful of classroom instructional times when scheduling appointments and travel.  Learning is impacted when students are not present.  We understand that appointments are needed and family obligations happen, however, please limit the early pick ups from school so that we can fully support student learning.  In addition, when a student misses 10% or 18 absences, they lose credit for the school year, and plans are required to be made for students to earn credit. Thank you for your support with student attendance.  It matters!

    4. TOMORROW IS OUR LAST COLLECTION DAY! Click here for information about our Coats for Kids Drive. We will have a collection bin in the front foyer for November 15-19. Let’s make sure all kids are warm this winter season!

    6. November 30th at 9 am, CSES will conduct a lockdown drill in conjunction with Hays County.  Please expect numerous emergency vehicles onsite this day.  

    7. Fall Picture Retakes are on December 1st.  Please complete this form only if your student(s) will (or might) do a retake - or if they were not here on our original picture day (Oct 7). Please complete this form one time for each student who will be doing a retake.

    • CSE PTA has applied for designation as a National PTA School of Excellence, with the goal of growing family participation in advocacy for education.

    • Join us for Family Movie Night Friday, December 3 from 6pm - 8pm in the gym at CSE! The kids will vote this week on the feature film: Muppets Christmas Carol, Elf, or The Grinch!

    • It's time to stock the December POWER Store, where students redeem their Cypress Cash for prizes. Our children work so hard to earn these rewards, so please help us encourage and reinforce that positive behavior by donating items from our wishlist.

    November is here!  We are ready for lower humidity, cooler temperatures, and a season of thankfulness!  We are grateful for our amazing learning community here at CSES!  

    1. See you at Cypress Sprinters tomorrow morning at 7:15! Weather permitting. 

    2. Families may eat lunch outside in the front entry area with their students if they would like.  Families will sign their students out and eat lunch, then sign their students back in.  If you elect to visit and have lunch, please bring your own lunch as our cafeteria is not accessible to visitors at this time.  Please show up a few minutes prior to the start of your student’s lunch to get them checked out. THANK YOU!

    3. Mark your calendars for Parent University.  The topic is Parenting During a Pandemic: Regulating and Connecting Anxious Moments with Your Child.

    4. Message from PE: During the month of November, the CSE PE team will be doing our Shoes Tying Challenge. We encourage the whole school to participate! Please see the following flyer about our challenge and videos to help learn how to tie shoes or learn a new way to tie your shoe.  Also, if you have any extra shoes that have laces lying around please send them so we can use them to help those students that don't have laces on their shoes. Thank you so much for your support! 

    5. As the temperatures drop, our Lost and Found grows!  Please be sure to label your children’s items- water bottles, lunch boxes, and jackets/coats so if they misplace an item it can be found.
