TES & the ELC are holding another food drive to collect food for our students in need. This food will be handed out before April Break and the Summer Break to ensure all of our students get what they need. This food drive will begin on Monday and lasts until Friday, April 4th. If you are able to donate, the ELC is collecting pasta and cans of sauce (no glass). Thank you in advance!

Used Book Drive for the Family Fun Fair!
Do you have any books lying around the house collecting dust? The ELC is holding a used book drive to help support families receive used books during the Family Fun Fair in April! This event was well attended last year and everyone was able to go home with a book. We are collecting books of all ages in decent used condition. Please bring donations to the ELC office.
A Night To Discover
At A Night to Discover on Wednesday, students from Ms. Kathy McCormack and Ms. Fran Gauthier’s classes had the opportunity to showcase their learning in a fun and interactive way. Jason S., Jaxon S., Cora R., Jason W., Audrey M., Makenzie W., Reid S., and Kilo H. demonstrated their newfound coding skills using BeeBots, a hands-on tool that helps teach the basics of coding. They coded the path of the BeeBots based on finding the color/letter they wanted the BeeBot to end on. The students worked closely with Mrs. Morin, the TES technology coach, who set up a special center in the classroom to guide them through the process. The students were excited to share their knowledge, and they truly enjoyed the experience of working with Mrs. Morin. It was a wonderful opportunity for the students to engage with technology and demonstrate their creativity in a fun, supportive environment.
