Reminder: No School this Thursday & Friday / MEA Break
Dear Families,
We are heading into the third week of Maratón de Lectura and hopefully your readers are going strong! It has been fun hearing all the marathon chatter and witnessing our scholars' drive for reading. Last week’s Book Fair was buzzing with children fulfilling their appetites for learning, many referencing getting new books to help complete their Maratón reading logs! We appreciate your encouragement to help our scholars reach their reading goal of 850,000 minutes!
Please share this clue with your child(ren):
We hope you'll take part in our special Spirit Day this week: Wednesday, Oct. 17h is Plaid Day!
Wear your favorite plaid or flannel to school.
On Thursday, October 25th,we will recognize Unity Day at EHSI. (The actual nationally-celebrated day is Wednesday, but we already have a Spirit Day planned on the 24th.) On this day we invite all scholars to wear orange, the official color of Unity Day! This day is meant to bring awareness to the ideas about anti-bullying and spreading kindness.
Thank you so much to those who have volunteered to help at our upcoming Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) Mexican cultural celebration. We could still use more Saturday, Oct. 27th from noon-3pm.
We need volunteers to make this event a success! Please sign up here to help (shifts can be as long or as short as you wish!)
