Happy Friday! I want to thank you all so much for your continued support of our school. It has been such a smooth transition for me as the new principal. I am so blessed to work with such a wonderful staff and such caring and supportive parents.
Now for the good stuff...We have had an awesome week here at EES. We have collected an amazing 3,667 cans of food for the annual Christian Crisis Center Canned Food Drive. That is just amazing for a small school of only 302 students! I am so proud of everyone for this selfless act of giving unto others. I know each and every person who donated food will receive a tremendous blessing!
This week we also participated in Campus Beautification! Our students in grades 3-5 cleaned up the grounds, pulled weeds, planted flowers, and picked up trash. It was a great opportunity for them to take pride and ownership in our school grounds.
I want to remind you all of the Flu Vaccine Clinic coming up in Nov. The clinic will be at Ellendale on Nov. 5. Students in grades 4 and 5 may receive a free flu vaccine with parent consent. Forms were sent home earlier this week. If you want your child to receive this vaccine at school for free, you must return the form by Monday. No vaccines will be given with the form, no exceptions. If you have questions or need another form, call the school office.
Our book fair cranks up next week. Monday is our family book fair event. It will be from 3 - 6 pm in the media center. We also have PTE on Monday night. We will be serving Chik-Fil-A meals at 5:15 and the program will begin in the gym at 6:30. We hope to see you there!
Have a great weekend!
