CSD Cheltenham ES

Ready, set, GO! 🏃‍♀️☀️🎉
Color Day was packed with laughter, friendly competition, and tons of school spirit! From racing across the field to cheering on teammates, our students gave it their all and had a blast doing it. Of course no color day would be the same without a special visit from our CES dolphin! 🐬 The smiles were big, the energy was high, and the memories made today will last all summer long! 😎💙💛

A special tradition and a full-circle moment. 🎓✨

Yesterday, our graduating seniors walked the halls of CES Elementary School one last time, inspiring the next generation of learners and reminding us how far they’ve come. From elementary students with big dreams to seniors ready for their next chapter, their journey is a testament to hard work, growth, and perseverance.

We are so proud of all they have accomplished and can’t wait to see what the future holds. Congratulations, Class of 2026! 🎉💙💛

🦁🐒🐘🦒Last week, our 2nd graders had an unforgettable day exploring the Philadelphia Zoo on their field trip! Students enjoyed seeing amazing animals from around the world, learning about wildlife habitats.

From watching playful primates to spotting towering giraffes and majestic big cats, every moment was filled with excitement, curiosity, and hands-on learning.

A big thank you to our teachers, chaperones, and staff who helped make this special day possible. Students had a wild time! 🐾

Congratulations to Cheltenham Elementary fifth grade teacher Dr. Andrew Vassall on the release of “The Blue Crayon” on May 22. “The Blue Crayon” is the second book in Vassall’s “Compassionate Crayon” series, following last year’s release of “The Black Crayon.”

“The Blue Crayon” is a heartfelt story about emotions, self-control, and learning how to stay calm during difficult moments. Released during Mental Health Awareness Month, this inspiring book encourages children to express their feelings, build confidence, and understand that being calm can be a true superpower.
