Welcome to 2nd grade!!! My name is Ms. McLain, and I am so excited about this journey we are about to embark on together. This is my very first year teaching, although I have been a part of the CES family for several years. Upon completing my internship at CES, I graduated from AUM with my collaborative elementary education B.S in 2013. I began
substitute teaching at CES and ARIS in the 2014-2015 school year.
I was born in Montgomery, and raised in Millbrook. I graduated from SEHS in 2005 GO MUSTANGS!!! I still live in Millbrook now with my 3 boys Bailey, Talan, and Brock. I enjoy TEACHING, reading, photography,
watching movies, and spending time with my boys.
I feel very blessed to be with the CES family, and I know we are going to have a wonderful year together learning and growing.

Behavior•Ms. McLain LOVES outstanding behavior!•Inside your child’s daily binder, there will be a behavior chart. I have a clip chart system so every day your child will receive a color on their chart. There is also a reference to what each color means. Please initial this daily and return to school. •If your child reaches the very top of the behavior chart, he or she will place a star on their clothespin. Once the student gets 5 stars his or her clothespin goes on the wall of fame and they will receive a good behavior token.•CES also gives out GOTCHAS, every staff member has a blue pad with GOTCHAS. If a student is seen practicing good behavior they will be rewarded with a gotcha. Students with 5 or more GOTCHAS are allowed to attend the monthly GOTCHA party!•If your child is caught misbehaving, they will receive an MBI and clip down.
