I hope you have notice growth in your child’s achievement. It has been gratifying to note all the accomplishments of our students over the past six weeks. We carefully monitor students’ growth to ensure that we are addressing the needs of each Ellis student and we are seeing significant gains. We want to thank those of you who are helping at home. You make a strong difference in the academic growth your child experiences.
We want to thank all of you who attended the McTeacher night at McDonalds. It is an evening we always enjoy. It allows teachers and students to see each other in a different setting. The teachers appreciate your participation as the proceeds go to support the teacher’s printing for their classroom and we are being very conscious to spend conservatively this year.
The Third Grade students experienced a wonderful field trip to the museum to expand their learning about Native Americans and they had the opportunity to create clay pots. The First Grade students have an upcoming event you will want to make sure to ask about if you have a first grader. The First Grade Thanksgiving Feast is coming up on November 20th, and we have a 2 hour early out on the 25th followed by two days out for Thanksgiving.
We are thankful for the terrific students and parents at Ellis and wish you a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday.
