EP Parents
Such an amazing first couple of days to start the school year. It was wonderful seeing everyone back in the hallways and classrooms ready to learn and improve everyday.
Reminders:
On Monday ( 8/14) ALL students will be walking to class on their own. We ask that you discuss this with your child. There will be adults in the hallways ready to help get them to their classrooms safely.
Everyone needs to complete and return the blue Health Card that was sent home. We apologize but there was a misprint and we had to resend these home.
Don't forget to always check our website and Facebook for the latest infomation.
Remember school starts at 7:50 AM. Please make sure you have made arrangements to have your child on time.
We are looking forward to a wonderful first full week of school. Go Eagles !
EP parents,
We are all ready to welcome back our Eagles tomorrow for the first day of school of the 23-24 school year.
Please remember Kindergarten and 1st grade parents ONLY will have the opportunity to walk their child to class if they want. This is not a time for a conference, so please walk them to class and we will take care of them.
Kindergarten parents are welcome to join us for our annual BooHoo breakfast for coffee and donuts in the media center at 8:00 am.
Remember to be patient with the first couple of days of dismissal as we try to make sure everyone gets home safely.
See you tomorrow and Go 🦅
EP parents,
Next week is an exciting time for everyone. Many of you have already received your post cards or looked within your FOCUS account to see your childs classroom teacher. During Monday's orientation there will be people available in the hallways with updated class lists if you are unaware of your child's teacher.
As a orientation reminder:
Prek-1st-11:11:45
2nd-5th -1:15-2:00
Unfortunately if there are multiple siblings in different grades, you will need to go to both orientations.
For your convienence we will have someone available on campus to help complete online applications for free and reduced meals. There will also be a limited amount of school spirit shirts for purchase ($10 cash only at this time).
We lookf forward to seeing our Eagles on Monday!
