Division Highlights

Think First and Stay Safe
September 19-23, Primary School students will participate in a special program from Holly's House. Students learn to identify & outsmart the lures that are consistently used in predatory crimes against children, most often by someone known to the child. Students also gain personal safety skills while being assured that most people are kind, safe and committed to their well-being.


Day School Community Highlights

Fall Festival Volunteers Needed!
Help serve our famous Walking Tacos, Smoked BBQ Baked Potatoes & EDS-Made Puppy Chow at the 95th Annual West Side Nut Club Fall Festival - October 3-8. Parents, teachers, students, alumni... anyone can help at Booth 109. There are plenty of ways to get involved and help raise tons of money for the EDS community. Want to work the food assembly line inside the booth? You can do that! Want to take customers' orders & serve ice cold beverages & homemade Cotton Candy? You can do that, too! If you'd rather work from home, you can bake potatoes and deliver them to the booth. We need about 7 people to work each of the 3 daily shifts (9am-1pm; 1pm-5pm; 5pm-10:30), plus potato bakers.
