This week's news:

Thank you for attending parent conferences-it was lovely seeing you all. Thank you to the PTO for providing dinner for the staff who stayed for conferences

Thank you Mrs. Kilcoyne for organizing the book fair. It was a great event-thanks also to all the volunteers who assisted as well. I appreciate your time

Please be sure your child finishes any donuts/breakfast foods, coffees or Starbucks drinks prior to arriving at school. We have so many allergies in classrooms-we need to keep everyone safe-thank you

Best of luck to Mrs. Toohey who is retiring on Tuesday October 31st after 35 years of service to students in the Shelton School System. We wish her nothing but the best

Have a great weekend--see you all on Monday-Mrs. Weber

Old News-

Please be sure your child is in school appropriate footwear-crocs are super cute but not practical for the playground.

Spirit days are fun ways to unite as a school. They are optional and if you do not want your child to participate, that is completely fine. The schedule for the year is attached below

Just a reminder that any medications must be brought to ESS by an adult. Students are not allowed to have medications in their backpacks at any time
If your child is arriving in the morning after the doors are closed, please do not just drop your child and drive away. Please walk your child to the front door and ring the bell and we will escort them to their classroom
As stated in the rules/expectations that were sent out and are also linked below please remember that
- Student cell phones and smart watches must remain in backpacks in the off position during the school day. Students are not allowed to use these devices while at school. If your child contacts you during the day, please call the office instead of responding.
- Be sure to label all student items including jackets, sweatshirts, water bottles and lunch boxes. We have an overflowing lost and found collection each year. Anything left at the end of the year will be donated
We have designated visitor parking in front of the school. Please use those spaces when you come to school. Parking is not allowed at any time in the fire lanes or in front of the school after 3:00 when buses begin to arrive .

Support the Elizabeth Shelton School Library Media Center!

Starting on September 25th and running through November 22nd, we are holding our first online Titlewish fundraiser of the year. Please know that 100% of the money we raise will go directly to purchasing new materials for our school library.

We’re asking you to participate and help us raise $1,000. To help us meet our goal, please visit https://www.titlewish.com/1095299. The site goes live on Monday, September 25th.

Thank you for helping us provide Elizabeth Shelton School students with the best education possible! It is a great way to honor your child for their birthday or any special occasion, or just because you want to help! Your child will have their name placed in a new book in honor of your donation.

Thank you!
