Dear ESMS Families,
What a wonderful week at ESMS. Yesterday, all students engaged in Wingman, led by our student Wingman facilitators. Our sixth graders participated in Tin Can Pass, seventh graders participated in Onesies, and eighth graders enjoyed Reverse Pyramid Build - a good time was had by all! Be sure to ask your kiddos all about it!
Remind your kiddo to participate in Spirit Day if they want - Wear Your Favorite Hat Day on October 31. Click here for the flyer!
