Good Evening ESMS families,
We hope you’ve had a wonderful weekend. As we head into the new week, we are looking forward to honoring Veterans Day with our students on Tuesday and hope to see many of you at the PTA meeting on Monday evening. Please take a few minutes to review the updates and reminders for the week ahead.
Food Drive: Our school is proud to take part in a city-wide food drive supporting Milford families in need! Students can bring in nonperishable food donations to their homerooms starting this week. The homeroom with the most goods donated (per capita) will win the Hot Chocolate Breakfast! All donations will go to 12 local charities helping Milford families. Collections end Friday, November 14.
PTA News:
Veteran’s Day Help: Please sign up to donate food, beverages, or paper goods to the Veteran’s Day breakfast reception.
Milford Turkey Trot: Join us on Thanksgiving morning for the Milford Turkey Trot fun run which benefits Milford charities, including our PTA! There are 1, 2, and 3 mile options so there is something for everyone. Register here and don’t forget to check off our school in the Milford Public Schools Challenge when you register. The school with the most entries wins a prize. www.milfordturkeytrot.com
