We are off to a wonderful start of learning at SES! As a reminder, Literacy is a focus this year! Please remind your children to read, read, read. The Book Fair is coming September 9-16.



Did you know for $5 you can display your child's birthday on our digital sign? You can purchase this on mypaymentsplus.com under the activities category.


Reminder-Monday, September 5th is Labor Day, there will be no school that day.


A few safety reminders while on school grounds per our school resource officer; please do not speed on White Road or in the school parking lots, cellphone use while driving is against the law, no cellphones in car rider line, and no parking in handicapped spots unless you have a permit. Citations will be issued.


Thank you for your continued support!

NEW! Excuse for Absences Google Form

Our new form for uploading attendance excuses is now live. We want to transition to an electronic form for accepting excuse notes. When your child is out, you will complete this google form and it will have the option to upload a doctors, dentist, etc note. See link below. This will also be accessible on the Sharon Elementary School Website.


When this form is completed a copy will be sent to the homeroom teacher and front office staff.


Here is the link to the form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfnHolt75aPIZaOe-40z1CjaCulwdBNP8BH4x5kf4BLNbbtmg/viewform?usp=sf_link
