Campus News & Celebrations

Notes from the CCES Office & Admin

January 23, 2026

Dear CCE Families,

Wow—another great week at CCE! While it may have been a short week, it was certainly full of learning. Kindergarten enjoyed engaging presentations from Keep Austin Beautiful, students in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade worked hard on their Reading Interim exams, and our UIL practices continued after school.

A big thank you to our PTA for the popcorn and soda bar—it was a fun and much-appreciated way to start the week for our staff!

As colder, wetter weather moves in this weekend, we hope you all stay warm and safe. RRISD will share important updates if inclement weather impacts our school schedule on Monday.

To learn more about RRISD’s weather protocols, visit our Inclement Weather webpage. 

Take care,
The CCE Team

 
 

NO change in Transition Meeting – Weather Contingency Plan

Hello 5th Grade Families,

We are planning to move forward with our Middle School Transition Meeting as scheduled on Monday, January 26th at 7:45 a.m. at CCE.

In the event of a two-hour delay or a school day cancellation, the meeting will be rescheduled for Thursday, January 29th at 7:45 a.m. at CCE.

While we are hopeful that no changes will be necessary, we wanted to proactively share our backup plan so families can plan accordingly. Thank you for your continued support and partnership as we help prepare our 5th graders for their transition to middle school.

Warm regards,

The CCE and GMS Teams 

 

GoGuardian / Beacon After Hours and Non-Instructional Day Notifications

To support student safety, digital citizenship, and social-emotional well-being, Round Rock ISD partnered with GoGuardian this fall to implement the Beacon digital monitoring system. Beacon helps district and campus staff monitor student online activity during the school day to identify potential safety concerns and provide timely support when needed.

School-day monitoring hours in Beacon are 7:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. on instructional days. On those non-instructional days,  district staff will not actively monitor Beacon notifications. 

Outside of school hours, and during weekends, holidays, and school breaks, parents and guardians may continue monitoring their student’s online activity by using the GoGuardian Parent Mobile App.

The Beacon system allows district staff and parents to view:

- Student online browsing activity, and

- Activity within the student’s district Google account.

When enabled, Beacon generates notifications for online activity that may indicate that a student could benefit from additional support.

Parent Monitoring Encouraged

Parents and guardians are encouraged to download the GoGuardian Parent App to continue monitoring their students’ online activity during Winter Break and throughout the year outside of school hours or on non-instructional days.

Thank you for partnering with us to support student safety and well-being, both online and offline.

Reminders for Event RSVPs & Campus Visitors

When submitting your RSVP to volunteer for school events—such as field trips, classroom celebrations, or special events (coffee chats,etc) —please  make sure to enter your name as it appears on your legal form of identification (driver's license, passport). This helps us speed up the check-in and approval process. Thanks for your support!

When visiting our school—whether you're picking up a student, meeting with a teacher, joining your child for lunch—please make sure to bring a physical ID with you. Photos of your ID on your phone won’t be accepted. Thanks for helping us keep everyone safe!

 

Notes from the CCES Counselor, Mrs. Hougham

With the cold weather coming, if needed, please keep in mind information regarding the Cold Weather Shelter in Austin.

Full STEAM Ahead! Grab your lab coats and your curiosity—STEAM Night is just around the corner!

Date: Tuesday, Jan 27 Time: 5:00 – 6:15 PM   /    Location: CCE

We invite all our families to join us come explore interactive stations from every grade level and enjoy special presentations from our Westwood High School guest groups! From engineering challenges to artistic creations, there is something for everyone.
We can't wait to see our scientists, techies, engineers, artists, and mathematicians in action! You will be able to explore the various stations at your own pace but as a reminder that all students must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
