FISD Early Childhood School
Where the Adventure Begins...
Dear Parents,
What a great week! We so enjoyed seeing many of you at Open House this Tuesday night. The children have been working so hard and have made such great progress. We always enjoy the opportunity to share those things with you! Thank you also for all your support with our Spring Book Fair! This is one of the few ways we are able to raise money to buy books for our school. It was quite a success! A special thanks to our very own, Mrs. Jenkins, and her parent volunteers for pulling off such a fun event!
Next week will be another big week! This is a special week each year where we show our teachers how much we appreciate them and all that they do for our sweet children! You are welcome to send in whatever you would like to show your gratitude to your child's teacher, the classroom assistant, and whomever else is making a big impact in your child's life!
Next Friday is our annual Storybook Character Parade! You should have received information from your child's teacher with details. Students are encouraged to dress as a character from a children's book and to carry that book throughout the parade. You are welcome to attend to see all of the children! It is always so much fun! If you need any additional information, feel free to email your child's teacher directly!
For Kids,
Melissa Ellis
Principal

Box Tops for Education!!
Have you been saving your box tops for us?! This is free money for our school and most people have them on items they already have in their home. We challenge to collect 25 box tops and send them in! If every student brought in just 25 box tops each, we would collect over 20.000 box tops in just one month, which would be more than $2,000 dollars. Please ask extended family to collect them as well. We appreciate you supporting our school!
Tuition Supported Pre-K Enrolling Now!
A limited number of spaces will be available in the 2017-18 school year for students who do not qualify for free Pre-Kindergarten at the Early Childhood School.
The cost for this program is $348 per month for the first child and an additional $300 per month for the second child, plus a $100 non-refundable application fee per child. Transportation to and from school is the responsibility of the parent.
If you would like to apply for tuition-supported Pre-K in the 2017-18 school year, please click http://schools.friscoisd.org/spc/ecs/site/home to find the application and to sign up for a registration appointment.
I want to hear from YOU!
Hey ECS Parents! I've created a new forum called The ECS Parent Place! As your child's principal, I want to make sure I keep open lines of communication with all of you! I'm hoping this will turn into a great forum where you can post questions, feedback, and praise so that I can stay better connected with you and your perspectives. I look forward to hearing from you! Just click this link and then look for the hot pink circle with the plus sign. Click on that and you're on your way! I'll keep an eye out so I can respond to your posts. Thanks!
