The Primary Connection

This may have been the most unusual opening week of school that I have experienced since COVID-19! Despite the high heat index and unexpected schedule changes, our students and staff have been incredibly resilient. They have adjusted beautifully and are already learning the routines and expectations of school.

The decision to close schools or move to an early dismissal is never an easy one for our superintendent. Unfortunately, weather conditions can change quickly, requiring difficult decisions to be made. For this reason, it is important to notify the school office immediately if your phone number or contact information changes so that you continue to receive important district notifications.

Have a safe and wonderful holiday weekend! I look forward to welcoming everyone back for a much cooler second week of school.

September 7th - No School - Labor Day

September 10th - Picture Day

October 2nd - Homecoming

Car Rider Arrival and Dismissal went incredibly well during our first week of school! Dismissal is still a little slower than we would like, but I promise—it will speed up. Once our kindergarten students become more familiar with the procedures, the process will move much more quickly.

We are already finishing dismissal 15 minutes earlier than we did during the same week last year! Keep up the great work—our drivers and students are doing an amazing job!

The EPS Transportation department has a great responsibility ensuring the safety of children who ride our buses. Last minute changes to a student’s transportation schedule increases the chance that a child may not end up going to the proper and intended location. Last minute changes are highly discouraged!
