"Inspiration + Dedication = Growth"
From the Transportation Dept.:
Welcome Back for the 2019-20 school year. We hope the school year has gotten off to a terrific start for your students! 
We have been working to maximize route efficiency while continuing to provide transportation services, at no cost, to our families. In doing so, the District has reviewed all routes for the 2019-20 school year. This review has resulted in changes to many of our existing routes, including a reduction of two routes at Ross-Sullivan.
Because routes are developed each year, based on areas of student population, stop locations and route numbers change each year. We have received several requests for changes in pickup locations, routes, etc. We continue to review and prioritize all requests and are working with First Student to address all parent concerns. We appreciate your patience as we work through each contact and are targeting Labor Day to have changes made and student information updated. 
A special note of thanks to our building administrative assistants who have been working to address each of your questions. Should you have any additional concerns about your child's transportation, please contact Amy McPartlin in the Business Office.
Our school
picture day is on Wednesday, September 4th!

The Principal's
Century
Book Club
T he Principal's Century Book Club is a listing of children who read multiples of one hundred books during their years at Eisenhower School.
*Books can be read by parents or enjoy a shared reading with your child. Take turns, use voices, and, most importantly, have fun!
Remember to ask plenty of comprehension questions and discuss new vocabulary words!
Your child’s name will be added to the front foyer wall when they read their first one hundred books. Their name continues to be added with each 100 books they read. 
Students will also receive a special prize from the office.
B ooks should be at the child’s reading level, and left to parent’s discretion.
Below, is a link to a form that you can download and print.

You may also list the books on a sheet of paper. 

Setting aside 20-minutes a night for family reading with or to your child makes a world of difference.
