Thanks, men. "Recess with Dads" brought more than 100 fathers, grandfathers, uncles and other mentors with students for a special event at CSAL Elementary. The event was designed to strengthen family engagement and bring positive male role models into the school environment in a fun and meaningful way.
From fast-paced games of basketball and football to shared laughs at the sack race lines, "Recess with Dads" allowed participants to spend time bonding with students, modeling teamwork and encouraging kindness and respect during recess activities.
“At CSAL Elementary, we believe that strong families build strong schools,” said Principal Andrea Mathis. “Events like `Recess with Dads` show students that their village is here and ready to support them — both in and outside the classroom.”

A plan for school realignment was announced Tuesday afternoon. The proposed plan includes 28 schools, with nine school closures. The goal is to provide every student access to high-quality educational opportunities, resources, and facilities. This realignment plan is designed to put students first!
We encourage you to visit https://ebrschools.org/realignment and click “See Plan” to view the full proposed plan and find school-specific details. The plan will go before the board soon for approval. Once approved, we will be communicating school-specific information with all families affected by realignment.
“We have a multifaceted plan. First, it’s the recommendation. If approved, then it’s the implementation. Then, it’s the optimization.” — LaMont Cole
