FISD Early Childhood School
Where the Adventure Begins...
Dear Parents,
Happy Thursday! I hope you all have had a wonderful week and are ready for a day off with your sweet children tomorrow since we do NOT have school!
We had quite an eventful week here! Last night, two of our amazing staff members, Lindsay Brittain (ALC Teacher) and Jennifer Cox (Physical Therapist) were able to see one of their innovative ideas realized in the biggest of ways! Some of you may remember the Go Baby Go car they made last year to use with some of our students who are immobile. Well, because of their hard work this year they received a grant to fund a couple more of those cars. One of our district business partners saw this and ran with it! They got hooked up with some engineering students at the FISD CTE center and were able to modify and give 12 of these cars to children who need them! Last night was our presentation night and it was a HUGE SUCCESS!!! Even the mayor came out to see the hype! This collaboration on a project with our oldest students that benefits our youngest students has been a dream to watch unfold! We are super proud of Lindsay and Jennifer and proud to claim them as part of our ECS family!
Don't forget we do NOT have school Monday either! So Tuesday when your kids are back will be their end of year party! We also have our Moving On Parades for our students graduating on to Kindergarten next year! We'd love to have you join us if you'd like. Once the parties wrap up, parents will just line the lockers outside your own child's classroom for the parades. Then at the end of the parades, the students will return to class for you to check them out with your child's teacher if you'd like.
Here is the schedule for that day:
May 30

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!
