CRES is celebrating "I Love to Read" month by having dress-up days all this week. Tuesday's day was 'Dress like a Dr. Seuss Character'...we think these students and staff members nailed it!
Last week, our special Olympic students and their unified partners got to enjoy the day at Special Olympics Winter Carnival. They participated in snow tubing, face painting, ice fishing and more!
First graders had an Eggcellent day! They learned how different beverages affect our teeth. Our eggs (teeth) were soaked in water, milk, juice, and soda overnight. Students observed the differences and similarities from the original egg. We practiced brushing our teeth (egg) after. February is dental health month :)

C-I hosted an amazing young lady yesterday! Miss Emma Benoit hails from Louisiana and is a suicide survivor. C-I’s senior high students had the opportunity to watch her documentary, My Ascension, and then participated in a panel discussion with Emma, representatives from Smiles for Jake, mental health professionals from CRMC, and school counselors.
This presentation was part of the “SMILE” program, a joint project between Smiles for Jake and CRMC, which is funded by a grant from Sourcewell.
