Dear ELC Families,

What a wonderful Valentine's week we had! The festive spirit days brought so much joy and excitement to our classrooms, and it was heartwarming to see the children celebrate together. We also had the opportunity to screen some new peers who may be joining our ELC community next school year – we're looking forward to welcoming new friends!

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the families who participated in making gold medals for our staff! They were greatly appreciated and truly made our team feel valued and special.

As we head into February vacation week, school will be closed. We hope you take this time to relax, recharge, and enjoy some special moments together as a family. Whether you're building snowmen, having cozy movie nights, or simply spending quality time at home, we wish you all a wonderful break.

We'll see everyone back refreshed and ready for more learning and fun!

Warm regards,

Frank Rich, Principal

Meghan Thomson, Assistant Principal

Yearbooks

We're ready to take orders for this year's yearbook! However, we're still in the process of creating our annual yearbook and could use your help.

Please use this YEARBOOK link to place an order. The deadline to order isn't until April 17th.
