Good Afternoon ESMS families,
As we head into the holiday recess, we want to wish our families a safe, healthy, and restful break.. We hope the coming days bring time to recharge, make memories, and enjoy the season.
We would also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our PTA for organizing the staff Cookie Drive. The generosity and thoughtfulness shown truly meant a great deal to our staff and helped make this week feel extra special.
The Spirit Rally was a fun and energetic way for our students to come together and celebrate as a school before the break. The energy, enthusiasm, and school pride on display were amazing, and it was a joyful reminder of the strong community we share.
Winter Break will run from December 24th to January 2nd, and we will return with a full day of school on January 5th. We look forward to welcoming students back in the new year.
