Dear ELC Families,

The topic on all of our minds is the snowstorm barreling towards us for the weekend. In the event of school closure or delay, families will be notified via text message. You can also visit the local news channel websites, as they will also cover school cancellations and delays.

Bundle up, stay safe, and enjoy the snow! Here are some snow day activities you can do with your kids at home!

As a Giants fan, I can't believe I'm typing this, GO PATS!

Sincerely,

Frank Rich, Principal

Meghan Thomson, Assistant Principal

"Woah-oh, we're halfway there!" Monday, January 26th, will be our 90th day of school! 90 more days to go! We'll be celebrating with a throw back to the 1990s with a 90s Spirit Day. Students and staff are encouraged to wear 90s themed attire. ELC and Kindergarten started later so it's not technically their 90th day but we'd love their participation, too!
