Halloween Changes
I would like to share with you the changes we are making to our Halloween and Fall Celebrations!
1. Instead of a Halloween Carnival we will have a Fall festival Dance on Friday, October 26 at 6pm.
2. This event is cosponsored by the ELAC and PTO
3. Music, food, games and FUN!!
4. October 31, students can wear their costumes to school or pajamas. We will have a parade at 12:15.
5. No blood, masks or scary costumes on October 31. We have little ones on campus and they get scared.
We are trying a few new things to help celebrate the fall and include everyone!!!
Great Start to the School Year!
Thank you all for such a great start to the school year. We are so excited to have your children here with us everyday. They are learning and growing! Everyday is a new learning opportunity. Students and teachers are working hard to be amazing learners and scholars!
EV is a Columbia University, New York, lab site school. This means that teachers will receive several days of professional development to help them be the best teachers they can be!
We have had many accomplishments so far this year:
-Grade Level Teams meeting to discuss student placement for Focus Learning and ELD

-Students are coming better prepared for Readers and Writers. Their stamina and knowledge of the work is evident. THANK YOU!!
