ELC at George Earle Weekly Update

We will continue celebrating colors for the next week here at school. We do lots of theme and dress up days, and they are ALWAYS optional and ALWAYS just for fun!! If your child has something in the color of the day, have them wear it 🙂

Last week our Brickies lit up the halls with vibrant fun during Color Week! Thank you for making it so bright and joyful!

The kids are doing such a FANTASIC job with their procedures every day and we are in the full swing of learning. Here are some of the goals we are looking to achieve during the first quarter!

Silly Requests, Serious Thinking! Learning to Make Responsible Choices! Our Classes Said ‘NO’ Loud and Clear! Pigeon’s Not Driving Today!

The kids all had Bus Safety lessons this week in library with Mrs. Ragon and Officer D (aka Officer Pigeon) They LOVED getting to tell that Pigeon "NO!" over and over when he tries everyway he knows how to get to try and drive that bus! It's a great way to have some fun all while learning about all the safe things to do on and near a bus! One of our biggest discussions is where and how to walk around the bus and where the danger zones are so they stay safe while getting on and off the bus!

Fall Fest starts here and we need our Brickie adult builders! Join the fun and bring your ideas! Have a little time or a lot? It all adds up for our Little Brickies! Let’s build an amazing year together!

Has your child ever wanted to go into a GAMETRUCK?!? We are starting the year off with an awesome opportunity for them to be able to here at school! This is an awesome fundraiser that helps us earn money for our school. We hope everyone will buy at least the 1 book they are sent home with. If you are not interested in participating, please just stick a little note on the coupon book that says "Not Interested" and leave it in their red folder to be returned to school the next day. Thanks parents!

Here at The ELC, and all over the SCOH district- we LOVE to celebrate Brickie Fridays and encourage the kids to wear their purple and gold every Friday with us! We will be sending home these order forms as soon as school starts so your Little Brickie can get some gear. The due date for this will be September 5th with no exceptions as we want to have the orders back to us before the big homecoming game.

Did you know that you as parents can nominate a staff member to be recognized as someone who is Being Excellent On Purpose? Dr. Buffington LOVES to know about and celebrate the positive!

If your child isn't feeling well, please keep him or her at home. You must report the absence IN SKYWARD before 10:00AM. There is no need to call the school to let us know. If there are any questions about the absence, we will reach out to you.

Check out the September Nurse's Corner to learn about immunizations, sports physicals, and other important information about keeping your student healthy!

Our SRO, Officer D is always available If you ever need to reach him- all of his contact info is listed here.

And so it begins!! Our lost and found already has items collecting! We will post pictures of our lost and found periodically here on Facebook and in our weekly newsletters. If you see something that is your child’s, or know your child is missing something- please reach out to SRO D. Please do not comment on Facebook if you see something that is your child's. His contact info is pictured here as well. Thanks!!

And remember- a GREAT way to keep your child's items out of lost & found jail is to LABEL EVERYTHING! If it is labeled, we can easily get it back to your child!

If you see something that is your child’s email officer D at dserrano@hobart.k12.in.us

The School City of Hobart Brickies from the Start goal is to strengthen families by empowering parents as their child’s first and best teachers. Every day, we advocate for families so every child-in every neighborhood-can thrive.
