Dear ELC Families,

It was a short week for us, and we want to wish everyone a relaxing and enjoyable Thanksgiving break! We hope you’re able to spend quality time with family and friends. We look forward to welcoming the ELC students back on Monday, December 1st!

Happiest of Birthdays to Olivia W. and Jameson C.! They share their birthday week with Ms. Kathy M.!

It’s hard to believe, but planning for next school year is already beginning! On Monday, peers who are not eligible for Kindergarten next year will receive a yellow form. Please complete and return the form by Friday, December 19, 2025.

PM peers who wish to switch to the AM session will be prioritized based on the order in which forms are returned.

This holiday season, there are more families in need than ever. Please consider donating to our school's Giving Tree—your generosity can help ensure every student experiences the joy of the season. We've tried to streamline the process and make it easier to participate. You can utilize the online store and have it shipped to the school: TES/ELC Giving Tree Store
