Essex Elementary School
Sharing the Joy!

Hats off to our Artists and Musicians!
The Spring Art Show and Concert featured every elementary students' works, the EES Chorus's melodic voices, our band players' musical progress, and the jazzy notes from the EES Rock Band. It was a night to remember! Many thanks to Ms. Dooley, Mr. Carpenter and Mrs. Yutkins for their incredible efforts leading up to this entertaining evening!
Sound + Art = Creations to be Proud Of!
Looking Ahead to Field Day!
Mr. Marche has been planning...and has a few unique and new ideas for our Field Day Adventure next Wednesday, June 5 in the morning. One of the added elements will be a Bike Rodeo where students who bring their bikes can learn a bit of bike etiquette while riding through an obstacle course. Bikes and helmets can be dropped off on Wednesday morning on the playground by the pond for the events. (Students without bikes will explore a different Field Day option at this time.) Help your child prepare for the bike riding of summer by dropping off their bike/helmet on Field Day!
Special Day Dismissal will be in effect! See email for details.
Band members provide the musical soundtrack for the Essex Shipbuilding Museum's Opening Day.
