A huge congratulations and thank you to our Student Cyber Ambassadors!

Cypress Woods Elementary had four students attend the PCS Cyber Ambassador Academy this week, and our Eagles continue to soar even when school is out! Our team earned the Knowledge is Power Podcast Award for creating the most informative podcast. 🏆

Way to go, Allison, Eli, Lily, and Parker!

A special thank you to Ms. Reyes and Mrs. Wilson for serving as our teacher sponsors and supporting these outstanding student leaders.

The Cyber Ambassador Program is a student leadership initiative that supports our school’s digital responsibility efforts. Selected students serve as ambassadors by promoting safe, responsible, and respectful technology use across campus while helping educate their peers about digital citizenship.

Way to go, Eagles! 🦅

Quietly last week while we wrapped up the school year, said farewell, congratulations, and good luck to our fifth graders and celebrated the retirements of some of our finest teachers, Miss Cindy, Ms Edlemen, Coach Crispyn, and Ms Slater many missed a very important announcement. Not wanting to take away anything from his students or staff, Mr. Stevens quietly announced his retirement. Mr Stevens has been a trusted, loved, and admired administrator at CWE for eight years. He has been a humble leader, friend, and teacher. The quiet way he leads was so admirable, always with an encouraging word or a supportive gesture. He would drive all over Pinellas County even if it meant he was just supporting one of his students.

We wish him the best in his next chapter. We want to make sure we celebrate his accomplishments and all of the acts both small and large that continue to make CWE one of the top elementary schools in the county.
Mr. Stevens ….We will all miss you very much..

All together now…
And as always… GO EAGLES! 🦅

The Inaugural VPK Bright Starts PreK Art Show at The Bette Ra Ivey Discovery center celebrated the district’s youngest artists! We had a CWE artist celebrated at the show - Viktoriia M. had her artwork on display.

We are so proud of you Viktoriia!!

Congratulations to our published authors who were celebrated for their writings in the Cross Creek Chronicle last night! We had four Eagles celebrated — Pia P. and Olivia W. (3rd grade), Grady K. (4th grade) and Joanna R. (5th grade).

The Cross Creek Chronicle features writing from Pinellas County Schools elementary students. Works are selected from submissions throughout the district. The Cross Creek Chronicle is published annually to showcase the district’s talented young writers.

Way to go Eagles!! We are so proud of you. 📝 🦅
