We love each and everyone one of our teachers! We are celebrating them big time next week for all they do every week here at school. We love you ladies!

Take this moment to explain to your children what appreciation means. Teach them ways to show appreciation. Let them craft something for their teachers or take them to the store to pick out a candy bar that they think their teacher would love. Teach them the importance of those magical words "Thank You for all you do!" It's a great week to teach about gratitude and love and showing appreciation.

Please reference the schedule below, as well as look to your teacher for more information on the day. The first half of the day will be LIVE LEARNING and students will have to be logged in and working to be counted as present for the day.

This week we celebrated National Principal Day…. And we’ve got one of the absolute BEST around. These kids absolutely nailed some of all of our favorite things about her!!! We love you Mrs. Gutierrez

Thank you to Nurse Lisa for all you do for our tiny Brickies every day! From band aids and ice packs, to temp checks, to serious things- we are SO glad we have you here for us 🥰 You ROCK!!! From all of us at the ELC... thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!

Congratulations to Mrs. VanMilligan & Mrs. Kilar's class for bringing in the most boxes of cereal for the cereal drive. They enjoyed their prize of a pizza party last week!

Thank you to The Waters of Hobart Skilled Nursing Facility for their donation of potting soil and seeds to plant on earth day! We can't wait to see what we grow!!!

Here is the link to your own Smore this month with all the info on Graduation night and all the things to help get your kiddos ready for Kindergarten in the fall!

Zoo permission slips came home this week. The cost is $11.25, exact cash only, or you can pay by check to The ELC. Friday, May 10th is the due date for permission slips and money. DO NOT send in chaperone payments yet! You will do so once you are notified by the teacher that you are chosen to attend.

What a fun project to be working on with your kiddos!!! We cannot wait to see what you guys come up with!

Cars cannot go on the bus and will need to be dropped off at school prior to the event. We are asking that they get dropped off by May 1st.

Did you know that you as parents can nominate a staff member to be recognized as someone who is Being Excellent On Purpose? Dr. Buffington LOVES to know about and celebrate the positive!

The School City of Hobart Building Brickies' goal is to strengthen families by empowering parents as their child’s first and best teachers. Every day, we advocate for families so every child-in every neighborhood-can thrive.

If your child isn't feeling well, please keep him or her at home. You must report the absence IN SKYWARD before 10:00AM. There is no need to call the school to let us know. If there are any questions about the absence, we will reach out to you.
