We will be in remote learning starting on Tuesday, November 10th-Friday, November 13th. We will reassess our situation at that time. Please be monitoring the Class Dojo School Story Line, EES Facebook Page, and the Live Feed. I will post the finalized information by lunchtime.... Our schedule is set, our meeting in the morning with staff on the 9th is to work out our logistical details, and for me to answer staff questions. Please call me with any questions that you might have, (785) 844-1039
I will have a question and answer session with EES parents/guardians, on Monday evening at 6pm via zoom on Monday, November 9th to answer any final questions before remote learning begins. I will post the link on Class Dojo.
Mr. McDaniel
EES Parents, due to our changing COVID situation there will be no in person CATS starting tonight through Thanksgiving Break (11-24). CATS personnel will be putting out information on packets and other virtual options.
Mr. McDaniel
Parents, let me say thank you to all of you for putting your trust and faith in us that we will put together a plan that keeps all students and staff safe with EES and will allow those that need to quarantine within the building to keep education happening!
We made it through Day 1 with relatively little problem, and had Halloween parties and our 2nd Spooktacular Costume Parade!
Just a reminder that all quarantined students need to arrive at 8:15 and will dismiss at 3:05. This will be done through the Circle Drive Doors only, which is door #5. Staff in the quarantined classrooms will arrive at 8:05, so please do not arrive before 8:15. We will have a school breakfast and lunch for all students in the quarantined classrooms, so please do not feel like you need to send a sack lunch. It is free to all students. You may if you choose, but they will still get the option of the school breakfast and lunch.
If you are NOT quarantined, you are starting school at the regular time.... Please do not be late to school!
What an amazing group of staff we have within this building that band together to make magic happen for the students even in the face of adversity! I could not be prouder of the staff and students of this building...., even in the face of COVID today..., much laughter, joy, and LEARNING was had throughout the building! There are truly many shining stars within EES!
~Kudos to all!
Mr. McDaniel
PreK-4 Parents, just a reminder that tomorrow is our Halloween Parade. Students may bring their costumes to school with them, please do not have them wear their costumes to school, we will change prior to the parade. The parade will start as close to 2:45pm as possible.
Mr. McDaniel
