CES takes the leadership role very seriously! Our 4th grade students interested in being elected to the student council must apply sharing their reasons for joining, the talents that they can bring and are voted on in homerooms.
CES Student Council members are the true leaders, modeling our #ChooseKindness program, the pillars of our PBIS program (Being Safe, Respectful and Responsible!) and the character strengths of our Social Emotional Learning curriculum, the Positivity Project.
This year, activities include donating $250 to the Ronald McDonald House, made cards for the children at St. Jude's Hospital, donated to scholarships for the Community Theater Group - Center Stage, and more. Upcoming activities include: donating toiletries to the Corinth Community Cupboard, donating to a community group on Flag Day, visiting the Corinth Food Pantry and a special visit to our Corinth Mayor's office to learn more about being a leader and good citizen. You all truly embody the "Other People Matter" mantra!
Thank you to advisor, Mrs. Tina Fuller, for nurturing our young leaders! Well done, CES Riverhawks!

Dear CCSD Families,
This week, our school community will be focusing on the character strength of Leadership. Leadership means you value each member of your group and inspire people to do their best.
Leadership can be both formal and informal. It is concerned with getting others to do what needs to be done while maintaining group morale to ensure readiness to act in the future. This character strength’s focus is on the personal qualities of leaders rather than the practice of leadership. These qualities include the ability to understand others and inspire them toward a common goal, the capacity to mitigate conflict and mold consensus, and the desire to lead other people.
For individuals, leadership is a way to achieve what you know is important, as groups of people invariably achieve more than individuals. If you want to achieve your vision for the future, you need to inspire others to join you. As an individual’s ability to lead develops, so does that person’s confidence and sense of self-efficacy.
To practice and encourage the character strength of leadership with your child, please visit the Positivity Project’s P2 for Families, where together you can watch a video, read a quote, and talk about the answers to three questions. We will also be featuring some of our student leadership groups on our 4 social media sites throughout the week! Stay tuned!
Have a wonderful week!
