EPS Family News-February

The month of January certainly was a cold one! As we head into February, I hope that everyone continues to be healthy and can find some time to get some fresh air. This month we focused on the character trait of Perseverance. Students practiced setting goals and working with persistance to meet them. Our monthly manner is greeting others. We practiced making eye contact, using friendly gestures and polite greeting words and phrases. As we head into February, we will focus on the character trait of Caring and the monthly manner of personal space.

On January 9, we said goodbye to 3rd grade teacher Mr. Valerio and welcomed Ms. Scialfa. On January 29, we said goodbye to Ms. Rosenthal, our long term substitute in art and we welcomed Mrs. Puglisi today to our art room. We are so excited to welcome our new EPS family members. Please be sure to introduce yourself when you have the opportunity.

Our amazing PTO continues to work hard for the students. Our family movie night was a great success and we thank all those who volunteered their time as well as everyone who attended the event. Coming up this month, we will be hosting a Parents Night Out to benefit the LLS foundation in tandem with a Dine to Donate. We also continue to collect our hearts for staff! See the flyers below.

Lastly, we will celebrate School Counselors Week during the first week of February. We are so thankful for all of the important work that Mrs. Burns does with our students and families. She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure that all of the students needs are met and that ALL of our students acquire the knowledge of what it means to be a Kid of Character and a fantastic citizen. A big thanks to Mrs. Burns for all she does.

All My Best,

Amy Amiet, Principal
