Students in Mrs. Wright's class wrapping up their first unit of CKLA--"The Wind in the Willows."

Elementary Smartwatch & Cell Phone Use: Ensuring smartwatch and cell phone use at the Elementary Level is only occurring outside of the instructional day. Students are not to wear or use these devices in school. We will expect them (if brought to school) to remain in their personal backpacks until after school hours.

For families dropping off and picking up students in the carline, please remember that cars must enter from Paper Mill Road and come down Springfield Way and turn left into our upper parking lot. This will help to prevent congestion at the entrance of the upper parking lot. We appreciate everyone's efforts to help us keep carline running smoothly.

Dear Erdenheim Families,

The Scholastic Book Fair returns to Erdenheim the week of October 5 to October 9, 2026, hosted by the Enfield-Erdenheim Home & School Partnership (EEHSP).

HOW IT WORKS
Every student will visit the Book Fair with their class at a scheduled time during the week. There is no Preview Day. Every visit is a shopping visit, so please have your child's payment ready before the fair opens on Monday, October 5.

PAYMENT OPTIONS

• Any unused balance from a previous Book Fair will carry over to your current eWallet.
• New this year: funds can be transferred between eWallets.
• Cash, card, and checks made payable to EEHSP are also accepted.

FAMILY NIGHT: WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 7, 6:00 TO 8:00 PM
All Enfield and Erdenheim families are invited to shop together.

• Stop by the Spartans Station for lollipop sales benefiting the Spartans Care Fund. Lollipop sales are cash only.
