Dear CCE Families,

Wow—hard to believe we have completed the first semester of the school year! Thank you to our families and volunteers for your continued support of our campus. A special thank you to all who helped with our holiday parties—you truly made the day magical for our students.

This week was filled with joy, from our fun Holly Jolly Days to the exciting capture of Mr. Jingles! There were lots of giggles in the hallways. Thank you to the families who helped with the search and capture of Mr. Jingles—you and Mr. Jingles brought so much happiness to our students.

As always, we are incredibly grateful for the support of our PTA. It never ceases to amaze us. The holiday cookie spread was absolutely lovely, and we appreciate all you do to make our staff feel so special and appreciated.

As we close out the year, we wish you and your family a joyful holiday season and a very happy New Year. We look forward to seeing everyone in 2026!

Thank you,
Your CCE Team

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.

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!

Coding with Kubo: An Elf on the Shelf Adventure!
During our recent Hour of Code celebrations, K-5 students visited the computer lab for a special holiday challenge! Using our brand-new Kubo robots—funded by a generous Partners in Education (PIE) Foundation Grant—students worked to "hide" the Kubo Elf on the Shelf. This screen-free coding activity helped students practice critical thinking and problem-solving skills by laying down "TagTiles" to program Kubo’s path. It was a festive and educational way to STEAM up our learning!
