Dear ELC Families,

This has been such a fun week full of fall activities! Everyone looked wonderful for picture day on Thursday—proofs should be arriving in your emails soon. If your child missed pictures or needs a retake, picture retake day is scheduled for November 17th. Next week’s schedule is a little different: we’ll have school only on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Tuesday is a professional day for staff, and Thursday is set aside for elementary parent conferences. (ELC parent conferences will take place in December.) Don’t forget to “fall back” on Sunday when daylight saving time ends so you don’t show up late on Monday morning! Wishing everyone who celebrates a fun and safe Halloween night!

Frank Rich, Principal

Meghan Thomson, Assistant Principal

Veteran's Day Parade

We would like to show our appreciation for the TES/ELC community members who have served our country through a parade. On Monday, November 10th at 9:15 am, students and staff will line the parade route to show their gratitude for our veterans as they parade around the building. The TES/ELC student connected to the active military/veteran will get to walk the parade route with their service member. After the parade, there will be a quick reception for our veterans/active service members in the cafeteria.

If you or a family member is an active service member or veteran of our armed forces and is available to join us on Monday, November 10th at 9:15 am please fill out TES/ELC Veterans Day Parade Google Form by Wednesday, November 5th:

School Council

We’re excited to invite parents, caregivers, and community members to join our School Council! By law, every school has a council made up of both staff, family, and community representatives, and your voice is an important part of shaping our school’s future.

This year, the council will be working on both our current and new School Improvement Plan. Meetings are usually held virtually from October through February, making it easy to participate from home.

If you’re interested in serving or would like to learn more, please reach out me atfrich@attleboroschools.com

You can also find additional information about School Councilshere. We would love for you to join us!
