Let Us KnowDear CEE Community,
During this third straight school year of dealing with the impact of the pandemic on our lives, as well as confronting controversial issues regarding our environment, the political and social landscape, racial tensions and all the uncertainty we face, one of our enduring truths is that we all wish the best for our children to inherit a more positive and enduring legacy as the world continues to evolve and change.
When I think of the staggering complexities of the issues facing this generation, I am troubled by the world that adults may leave this generation of children to tackle these issues in the future. The great solace I take is that The Center, now in our 82nd year, is mission-driven to prepare students to not only find the joy and success in our school, but to serve as global citizens and to thrive in the world outside our doors. Our core values of Honesty, Caring, Inclusion and Responsibility form the foundation of our culture and prepare students for the world they will inherit.
As The Center engages daily in the support, nurturance, and education of our students, you can be a positive force for this generation and for generations to come. Your active support for the furtherance and excellence of our educational pedagogy and programs will give students the life-affirming tools to tackle whatever may come their way. In the face of the many challenges we are passing on to this generation of students, the antidote is clear: An exemplary, motivating, outstanding preschool and elementary education will be a positive and rewarding legacy for them and for you.
This meaningful legacy can be created by the financial support and endowment that an enthusiastic and participatory Planned Giving Program can provide our school. Please consider making a planned gift that will be a welcome, thoughtful LEGACY to The Center and to current and future students.
For more information, please contact Laura Maher at (323) 651-0707 or maherl@cee-school.org.

Sincerely,
Reveta Bowers
Interim Head of School 2021-22
