Today's Okoboji Performing Arts (OPA) field trip was PHENOMENAL!
TWO musicals were written and music composed entirely FOR our Mavericks by the ever-so-talented OPA Director, Jessica Schable.! What an honor to have carefully curated scripts just for our Mavericks?! SO COOL!
To top that off, our Mavericks learned and performed each musical all in ONE day! They were told each musical's storyline, auditioned for roles, created their very own sets/costumes/props, and THEN rehearsed each musical (K-3 together and 4-6 together) numerous times to deliver a nearly flawless performance to the opposing grades at the end of our day. They did AMAZING!
The students were well-behaved, attentive participants. They were gracious, kind, and enjoyed their day SO much! We discovered we have so many talented, creative, crafty, and imaginative students here at CCE. We knew that already, but today truly made their new and old talents shine! Our Mavericks made us SO proud!
From roles as squirrels, owls, hares, pumpkin kings, and knights, to spoken solos, ensemble pieces, leading characters, and supporting roles...our students shined all around!
They learned about teamwork, public speaking, acting, singing, set and costume design, character development, role relationships, communication, overall theatre production and SO much more!
THANK YOU to the amazing Jessica Schable and Okoboji Performing Arts, the No Boundaries crew that assisted her (out of Okoboji and Lake Park Middle Schools,) Camp Okoboji for hosting, and all of OPA's other helpers as well! Our Mavericks made memories and gained skills that will last a lifetime! A wonderful day was had by all!
Enjoy your 3-day weekend Mavericks and THANK YOU for a wonderful "Day of Drama!!"

As we round out a busy week, we are reminded of Monday's Veterans Day Program, and the sacrifices Veterans have made and make daily for us all.
We look back at this program with pride, thinking of our Maverick's poise and respect shown while honoring the men and women who fought (or are still fighting) for the freedoms we hold dear.
May we remember every day, not just on Veterans Day, their sacrifice and selflessness.
CCE thanks all Veterans for your service. We are forever indebted to each of you.
Mavericks, today is the day!
Come prepared for learning and fun!
See you soon!
CCE is blessed to know so many amazing community members with vast arrays of talent!
Our Maverick Cooking Club was able to enjoy the delectable gifts of our ISU Extension friend and Open Gate Bake Shoppe owner, Jenna Steffen!
Jenna delivered an engaging and fantastic lesson on "Cereal Creations," which included delicious Smores Bars and a Peanut Butter and Jelly Snack Mix!
The students absolutely LOVED having Jenna as their Cooking Club guest speaker and devoured their delicious creations right up!
THANK YOU, Jenna, for becoming a Maverick for the evening and sharing your baking expertise with our students! We were grateful to have you!

At CCE we get the honor of periodically surprising our students with fun incentives called "Surprise and Delights." However, we know how equally important it is to highlight our amazing staff too.
So, today we let the teachers take a break, kick back, watch a movie, and enjoy their very own "Pop" up Surprise and Delight" afternoon!
For an entire hour, the staff retreated to the music room to watch the ever-hilarious Grumpy Old Men while enjoying a pop and popcorn bar with all the fixin's! They were even served by a cheerful group of students ready to pamper our teachers/staff!
Students then headed to the gym for an hour of recess joy! They jammed out to their favorite tunes, played basketball and other games with friends, created a giant circle to play hot potato, and even ended the afternoon with a few rounds of Limbo!
While it may be rainy and gloomy outside, it was a joyous day for staff and student Mavericks!
Thank you to our amazing staff for all you do for our school and students. You are truly WONDERFUL and worthy of a movie break!

CC/E's Lighthouse Team spent a fabulous day touring a Leader In Me school in Ankeny today. We also listened to the founders of Leader in Me, Muriel Summers & Sean Covey, speak.
We laughed, we cried, and we loved learning new ways to celebrate growth and & confidence in our learners.
We ARE preparing MAVERICKS for life as leaders of themselves and others everyday at CC/E. 😊
