Our New Parent/Student Blog

Welcome to our new parent/student blog. This blog will serve as a communication forum for all Ellendale families. Blogging is a great way to communicate about various aspects of our school. There are a few things you need to know about this blog:

1. I will update the blog with information about school events and accomplishments weekly. Be sure to bookmark it and check it frequently.
2. Blogging is very easy. You can post anonymously or you can also post by signing up for a free google web account. The account will provide you with a google blogger identity. If you need assistance in figuring out how blogging works, I will be glad to help out!
3. This blog is intended to serve as a positive means of communication. If you have a concern about our school program or a personnel issue, this blog is not an appropriate means of communication for those concerns. Please contact the school receptionist to make an appointment to come in to discuss those concerns with me personally. Our blog moderator reserves the right to take down any negative posts that are harmful to our educational environment, staff, or students.
4. If you allow your student to visit and post to this blog, be sure to go over these blog rules with him or her. Also, be sure to put safe internet use practices into place to protect your child while he or she is using the internet. Literature concerning this topic is available in the school office upon request.
5. Please refrain from posting personally identifying information about yourself, your child, our staff, or other EES families. This includes full names, phone numbers, cell numbers, addresses, etc. We want to be sure you and your family are protected while using this blog!

Thank you for allowing us to try this new means of communication. We welcome your feedback and look forward to a great school year!
