IN THE NEWS: Clark Elementary Student Earns National Recognition!
Congratulations to Elana Van Deman, a Clark Elementary School student, for earning a spot among the winners of the national America's Field Trip contest!
Out of 125 students selected nationwide, Elana was the only winner from Indiana—an incredible accomplishment that showcases her outstanding writing, creativity, and thoughtfulness.
As part of her award, Elana will travel to Washington, D.C. for an unforgettable three-day, two-night experience. During the trip, she'll receive an exclusive early visit to the new National Geographic Museum of Exploration and participate in a private Smithsonian Sleepover at the National Museum of American History on the National Mall. She'll even have the opportunity to explore the museum's special America250 anniversary exhibit after hours—a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
One of the things Elana is most excited about is having free time in the evening to see the White House while she's in our nation's capital.
We are incredibly proud of Elana for representing Clark Elementary, Clark-Pleasant, and the State of Indiana on the national stage.
Thank you to the Daily Journal for sharing Elana's inspiring story. Read the full article here:

Good morning,
We are fast approaching our June 20 car show fundraiser here at CES from 9:00am-2:00pm. The car show, and all the money we raise, will go towards purchasing a horizontal rock climbing wall for our students. Please see the attached flier that explains our fun filled day on Saturday, June 20, from 9am-2pm. The QR Code makes it very easy to register your vehicle. There is also a "donate" button for those who simply wish to donate towards our 10ft x 40ft horizontal rock climbing wall that will be installed on our north gym wall and benefit all of our PreK - 5th grade students. We will also accept donations at a table the day of the event where the QR code will be available to scan along with any cash donations or checks made out to Clark Elementary. Cars can also be entered the day of the event at our registration table.
This is a family fun event, and even if you are not entering a car into the car show, we encourage you to come out and enjoy the playground and Gaga Ball Pits along with supporting many of our local food vendors who will be here on that day along with other local businesses. Please see the attached flier of the vendors we will have here that day...lots of good food to go along with the fun! Door 2 will be open for the use of restrooms, but that is the only part of the building that will be open that day as this is an outside event. Also, please have an adult with your child/children as this is not a drop off event.
Those families coming to just enjoy the car show, food and playground, we ask that you park across the street at the church as they have graciously allowed us to use their parking lot on this day. You can also park in the far back west parking lot by the baseball diamonds and the spaces on the south side of the building closets to the county road. We will have one of our police officers here assisting, but please take extra caution when crossing the county road from the church, and please do not have any children do this without an adult. The main parking lots by the school, and the hard surface playground area, will be for the cars being entered into the car show. Our vendors will be set up in the middle lane that our car riding students use each morning to enter the building.
Please stop by the registration table to consider making a donation and also to pick up one voting ticket per person to write down the number of your favorite car or motorcycle as we determine the five "Best of Show" winners. There will also be two silent auction items available to the highest bidder located at the donation table as well.
The flier is attached and here is the Facebook Event link: https://www.facebook.com/share/1CHReSSbxV/
I would appreciate having some volunteers help me on this day, even if it is for an hour...if you can assist in any of the following areas...event set up, registration table, donation/silent auction table, parking, floating helpers/other...please email me at bsloan@cpcsc.k12.in.us
Thank you for your help and support...excited to see all of you there and bring your family and friends!
Sincerely,
Dr. Sloan, Principal

CES students had the opportunity to visit with our special guests today...Lucky and Seabiscuit. These are very gentle mini horses from Mrs. Dougherty's farm.
The CES staff and students did a huge clap out for Super Dave yesterday, our head custodian, as he is retiring at the end of this year. He will be missed!
Former CES students, who are graduating from high school this year, returned to CES to be recognized by our current staff and students. Congratulations!
The CES students who helped Nurse Emily throughout the year took this group photo right before enjoying their pizza!
Our Pre-K students have been learning about dinosaurs and making fossils...so a friendly T-Rex stopped by for a visit to hear about all they have learned.
Our CES Pre-K students got to have a short visit with Sally yesterday.
We had another wonderful 4th grade program last night! Ms. Arndt is so good at making these experiences fun for our students while showcasing all of their musical talents and growth throughout the year.
Thank you also to Ms. Alvarez, our student teacher, who also helped our students grow.
