Dear ELC Families,

A big thank you to everyone who participated in the Veteran’s Day Parade— not even the rain could stop us! Our morning students always look forward to watching the parade each year and love seeing teachers and families take part. A special thanks to TES Assistant Principal, Mrs. Desautel, for organizing such a wonderful event.

A reminder that Monday is school picture retake day; please let your child’s teacher know if you would like retakes, as students will not receive them unless requested. Any students who were absent on the original picture day will have theirs taken automatically.

Lastly, if you find yourself in the bus loop while buses are unloading, please wait to leave until their stop signs stop flashing—our students’ safety is our top priority.

Frank Rich, Principal

Meghan Thomson, Assistant Principal
