Principal's Message
Thank you for all of your support in making this a smooth start to the school year! We have enjoyed getting to know your child and are working hard to get the routines and procedures down.
Another exciting new aspect of our school year is Project-Based Learning (PBL). We will have more information in the future at our Math and Lit nights throughout the year. Your students will still learn all of the required Indiana but PBL creates real-world experiences for our student and prepares them for life and career.
For new parents or as a reminder to returning parents, we are here to serve our school families. If you have a question, comment or concern, or you just want to share a positive story, please feel free to always reach out to us.
Thanks,
Jeff Spencer
SES Principal
