A Message from the Principal's Office A Message from the Principal's Office

June 5, 2026

Dear SES Community,


We would like to give a big shout out to our students. We had perfect attendance on Tuesday, June 2nd minus our Kindergarten students who were not in attendance due to Kindergarten Screenings for next year.


Our 6th grade students completed their portfolios this week. We are so incredibly proud of their hard work. Next week they will go on their field trip to Boston. Thank you to everyone in the community who was able to attend their BBQ last Friday to help fund their trip.


Students have been working hard on our all school musical that will be held next Thursday with showings at 1:30 & 5:00. We hope you can make it! Thank you to everyone who came out on Wednesday to help make costumes at the library. There was a great turnout and everyone seemed to have a fun time.


At this time, all students should have brought home information for their caregivers with instructions on setting up a PowerSchool account. We will be moving away from paper forms and caregivers will be able to update important information in PowerSchool. You can access the PowerSchool Portal HERE and select the "Create Account" option. The letter you received has your student's Access ID & Password needed to create the account. If you have any questions, please reach out to Laura & Martina in the office as they have spent many hours working with PowerSchool to get this up and running.


Have a great weekend,

Principal Anne
