A Message from the
Head of School:
Dear CES Families,
Christ Church and Christ Episcopal School are about to embark on a new journey, and we want you to join us!!! This exciting opportunity involves making some major changes to our current real estate holdings. The proposal involves both the selling of property and the building of new spaces that will allow our church and school reflect on the outside, the excellence that we know is alive and well on the inside! You may have heard that Christ Church is going to begin conducting focus group meetings as early as this Sunday, March 26. Both the school and church communities are invited to attend the meeting. However, we will hold additional meetings, designed specifically for the school community, when we return from Spring Break. During these meetings we will share our preliminary ideas and gather feedback from you. Our belief is that together we can galvanize our communities around a vision that will launch us into our next fifty years together.
Please come and take an active role in creating this new vision. You are welcome to attend any of the focus groups listed below. We look forward to hearing what you have to say!

'Bears' Go To
The Great Harvest Bread Bakery
The Bears class spent the last month learning about the story of bread. They planted wheat seeds, ground the wheat berries into flour, mixed and kneaded the dough and enjoyed sampling different breads from all over the world brought in by each student.
This study culminated with the grand opening of the Bears Bread Bakery
at which the students donned their homemade aprons and chef hats and sold their international breads to their parents and fellow students. The Bears Bakers are standing in front of their world map where we marked where each bread brought in originated. The grand opening was such a success that we sold out of bread!

On Saturday, 1st grader Maximilian P. participated in the Pinewood Derby with his Gaithersburg Cub Scout group (Pack 64).
The boys raced cars that they designed and built themselves.
Maximilian captured first place in his den, and first place in the whole pack!
Here he is pictured with his champion car and trophies to match.
Nicely done, Maximilian!
