EJ Elementary School News

Our BOGO Book Fair is coming soon! Please stay tuned for updates!

We're doing a happy dance thanks to your generosity! Your support for Share the Fair just made someone's day brighter!

Our Kids Club after school program is looking for snack donations! If you are able, we would greatly appreciate your help and support! Please sign up using the link below and bring snacks to the Main Office! Thank you for your continued support to our program and students!

Your feedback is important to us! Please take a few minutes to complete our School Climate Survey by clicking the link below. Your responses help us understand what’s working well and identify areas where we can improve our school’s environment for students, staff and families. We value your perspective!

Smartwatches are not permitted for use at school between the hours of 7:45 AM and 3:04 PM, consistent with the existing cell phone policy. If school personnel see or hear a smartwatch being used during these hours, the device will be confiscated and held until it can be picked up by a parent or guardian.

Parents who need to communicate with their child during the school day should call the elementary office at 231-536-7564 rather than attempting to contact students directly via smartwatches.

Smartwatches may be worn as timepieces but must not be used for calls, messaging, or any other functions during school hours.

Thank you so much for helping us with this!

Since the start of the school year, our students have been busy learning our PBIS expectations for each location in the school (classroom, hallway, cafeteria, playground, etc.). Please see the flyer below for more details about our Playground expectations and games!

Our students are also able to earn rewards for their great behavior! Please use the flyer below to view our Amazon wish list to help support our PBIS rewards program!

Help us spread some joy to EJES students and staff with Happy Grams!

Our children may experience tough days every now and then. We don’t always get the opportunity to let the school staff know we appreciate them. Why not take a moment to write some uplifting notes to them? These notes can be given to them on days when they need a boost. It’s a simple way to brighten someone’s day!

Please read these drop-off procedures thoroughly. ALL students should be dropped off in our back staff parking lot (see map below).

• PreK: Students will enter Door #3 to head to their classrooms.
• K-6th: Students will enter Door #4 to head to cafeteria, gym, or classroom based on their grade level.
• Parents/Guardians: We ask that you stay in your vehicles and do not enter the building. If you need to enter the building with your student, please come to the Main Office.

EJES Families,

It is with great excitement that I share we will be offering before and after school care for the 2025-2026 school year! Thank you to all of our families who filled out our survey! The survey helped guide our decisions on our ability to provide before and after school care. We truly appreciate each and every one of you and are looking forward to an incredible school year together! Please click the registration forms below in order to sign-up!
