🩵💛 What a day at CES!💛🩵

Today was full of learning, hands-on experiences, and opportunities to grow!

🌲 Our fourth graders got to explore the world of forestry with Usher Land and Timber.

💰Our fourth graders also learned important financial literacy skills with Suncoast Credit Union, building on the fifth graders’ experience last week.

💎And fourth and fifth graders got to enjoy an exciting, hands-on Diamond Del Gem Mining experience right here at school!

💜 All students had the opportunity to participate in Purple Pinkie with the Chiefland Rotary and CMHS Interact Club, raising awareness and funds to end polio worldwide.

So many ways to learn, explore, and grow—all in one day at Chiefland Elementary! We are grateful for the community partnerships and proud of the experiences that make learning come alive for our CES Indians!

🪨🔎We have ROCK stars in 2nd grade science at CES! Our second graders are getting hands-on with science as they investigate rocks and explore the many ways they can be alike and different! Students are observing, comparing, and classifying rocks by their size, shape, color, and texture while putting on their scientist hats and making discoveries along the way!🧑‍🔬⭐️
