CERSD Families,
Tuesday 5/14 at 10:45, we will be holding a "State Send Off" for our Warrior Baseball team who have advanced to the 2B State Tournament on Tuesday 5/14 at Rotary Park in Ellensburg, WA. Our local fire districts and sheriff department are involved in this tradition and will be the reason you see multiple emergency response vehicles at the schools and going through town, please do not be alarmed if you see this.
Give a wave and a honk if you pass them, and Go Warriors!

Partial Solar Eclipse Eye Safety: with the solar eclipse that will be partially visible tomorrow, Monday, April 8th, we want to take a moment to remind you of the importance of safety precautions for your child's eyes during this rare celestial event. Students will be instructed not to look or glance directly at the sun during the eclipse. While this precaution is being taken, it is essential for parents/guardians to reinforce this message at home, emphasizing the dangers of looking at the sun even when it is partially obscured during the eclipse. In the event that your child experiences any symptoms related to eye discomfort or vision changes following the eclipse, it is crucial to seek professional evaluation from an eye care specialist. Please remember that our school staff are not qualified to assess for eye damage, and it is the responsibility of parents/guardians to ensure the well-being of their children in such circumstances. We appreciate your cooperation in prioritizing the safety and health of our students during this exciting astronomical event. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at nursesd@cersd.org.
Wishing all of our families a fun and restful Spring Break! There will be no school April 1st - 5th. Classes will resume on Monday, April 8th.
