Dear ESMS Families,
Another phenomenal week at ESMS! It was wonderful to see so many families, staff, and community members at our teacher, para, and parent of the year celebration Monday night at Parsons - what a special evening. Tuesday evening all MPS students who were selected as respect stars were recognized at the Respect Ambassador celebration at Fowler Field. ESMS was proud to have three of our students there: Rian L, Mirza T, and Maddie H! Congrats! All Respect Stars and Ambassadors are invited to march in the Memorial Day Parade with the Junior Woman’s Club ‘Respect’ Banner. Last night we had our incoming Grade 6 family orientation which was very well attended. We are super excited to welcome our returning and new ESMS families to our wonderful learning community.
Just a reminder that there is no school on Monday, May 30 as we observe Memorial Day. Next Wednesday is our city wide track meet for all qualifying students (rain date is Friday) and Meteorologist Joe Furey will visit our school on June 2nd. Joe Furey is a meteorologist at Channel 8 WTNH. Joseph Thomas Furey Jr. aka Joe, or @StormFurey on Twitter will present to students about weather and broadcasting.
