Our next PTO Meeting is on Wednesday, January 21st at 7:30 pm in the EWS Dining Hall. Come get involved - whether you want to lead a project or just donate napkins, there’s a place for you! Click here for a Zoom link for anyone who prefers to join from home. And don’t worry - showing up doesn’t mean you’ll leave chairing a committee… unless you want the clipboard and glory :) We hope to see you there! Thanks!
EWS PTO Winter Ice Skating will be held on Wednesdays from 2:00-2:50 pm at Pilgrim Skating Arena in Hingham from January 14th through February 11th. The cost is $8/skater each week. Parents and siblings are welcome to skate too!
Families may sign-up and make payment via PT Board at the following link: EWS PTO Ice Skating Sign-Up.
Please note the following:
- Helmets are required for everyone under the age of 18.
- There are no rentals available at the facility so you must provide your own skates and helmets.
- Hockey sticks and pucks will be allowed, however, only as long as it remains safe and kept to one side of the rink. (Please discuss this with your children who want to play hockey.)
- Pilgrim Skating Arena requires a waiver.
- As for payment, there is a small credit card processing free via PT Board. If you prefer to pay by cash or check, select that option at checkout and PTO will collect cash/checks at the event. Checks should be made payable to Eames Way PTO.
If you have any questions, please contact Julie Brown (617-780-9646).
Here are a few tips to stay healthy and stop the spread this winter season:
Practice hand hygiene frequently with soap and water or hand sanitizer.
Cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue. If a tissue is not available, cover them with an elbow, not a hand.
Clean high-touch surfaces in your home frequently with household disinfectants.
Keep your child home from school if they have a fever, especially in combination with a cough, difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, congestion, runny nose, or sore throat. They should remain home until they are fever-free for 24 hours without fever-reducing medications.
Avoid social gatherings if you or your children are ill.
Proper handwashing, nutrition, adequate hydration, and regular sleep are the best ways to prevent illness. These strategies also shorten the duration of an illness.
Helpful tips for students to be successful at school:
Please pack a healthy snack EVERY DAY. Great snacks include easy-to-eat fruits and veggies like apples, oranges, carrots, and cucumbers as well as whole grain snacks including granola bars, and crackers. Cheese sticks and yogurts are another great option. These ideas help keep hungry bellies at bay and students ready to learn!
Have your child bring a water bottle to school EVERY DAY. The students have access to the bottle fillers and can refill their water bottles as needed throughout the day.
We want to be able to send students outside for as long as possible despite the chilly temps. Please be sure students dress in layers for school- they need warm weather gear for outdoor play even when the inside temperature is warm. If students do not have appropriate warm weather/snow gear their outside activities may be somewhat limited so they stay warm and safe.
