Where the Adventure Begins...
Dear Parents,
Happy Friday! Thankfully the rain held off and the kids had a BLAST at Big Day in Pre-K!! Above are just a few pictures from all the fun. They got to play with funnels, dig for treasure in the sand tables, play with spray bottles & squeeze toys, and even got to drive through the car wash! We hope your children enjoyed it as much as we did.
I had the pleasure of visiting a classroom this week and being served lunch in a "restaurant." The students were dressed up as chefs and had such a great time serving me a delicious lunch. Young children learn so much by imagining and doing. Have you ever watched your child pretend to drive a car using a box or hop a lego across the table and pretend it's a bunny? The process of pretending builds skills for our young children in many essential developmental areas such as social emotional, language and critical thinking. To encourage pretend play at home consider creating a prop box that includes old clothes, backpacks, hats, telephones, cooking utensils, stuffed animals, and dolls. These items are sure to spark your child's fantasy world!
With only two more weeks of the school year, we are reminded of what an honor it is to be part of your child's progress. Thank you for sharing them with us! Have a wonderful weekend!
For Kids,

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!
