Parents are welcome to join us! Parent admission is $9 and $8 for other children 2 and over. You will pay there when you arrive.
Sack lunches will be provided for each Kindergarten student, as we will have lunch there in their lunchroom. The cafeteria will provide a sack lunch with a ham and cheese lunchable. You are welcome to send lunch from home if you’d rather. Please make sure everything is disposable and the bag is labeled with your child’s name.
We will be leaving to return to campus at 12:30. Your child is expected to ride the bus to our venue, but you will be able to sign them out afterwards, if you wish. Please make sure you get with your child’s teacher to do this.
This is an exciting time for our students! For some, it will even be the first bus ride. Please speak with your child about being safe and following rules as we embark on this adventure!!
Thank You,

2x2 Program ending this week
Message from Miss. Tiffany...
Thank y'all for supporting your students in their extra curricular reading program this year!
The students will not be getting a new book next week, they will be receiving a completion certificate instead! They will get their certificate only when I recieve their returned folder containing their final 2x2 book.
After I have checked their book in for the final time I will return the folder with their certificate to each student. I will be allowing the students to take home their folders with their 2x2 list in it to keep so that parents can see the titles of the books in case they would like to purchase any of them for their home (not purchased from us).
We had wonderful participation this year and I look forward to hosting the program again next year now that I have some experience under my belt. :)
Thanks again for your support.
READING LOG INFORMATION
Dear Parents,
As an incentive, we will be sending home monthly reading logs. The goal is for students to read/share reading with someone, and keep up with it by coloring a square each time a book is read. At the end of the month, these logs will be taken up, and if they are all colored in, the student will receive 10 Eagle Bucks. A class reward will also be given to the class that has read the most at the end of each month.
You may use any books including classroom books that are sent home and books read through the 2X2 program.

ECC Drop Off/ Pick Up Procedures:
Drop Off Procedures:
- Drop off Times are 7:25- 8:00
- After 8:00, parents will need to park and walk their child to the front door.
Cars and buses will enter the parking lot from the west (back) entrance. Parents have to drive through the stadium-side drop off, or can park in the parking lot and walk their child to the front sidewalk.
Pick-Up Procedures:
Pick- up times are:
- Pre-K 2:15-2:45
- Buses: 2:50- 3:10
- Kindergarten: 3:10-3:25 (Our pick-up line is moving quicker now & starts moving a little before 3:10 and is getting done by or before 3:25 each day so please be here early :))
All car rider pick-ups will be on the stadium-side. Once the buses start pulling in, cars are NOT ALLOWED to get in the bus line. If you are late picking up your child, please park and bring your car tag to the front door. If you are early picking-up your kindergarten child, please park in the back 2 rows of the parking lot to wait for bus time to finish. Please have your pick-up tag (car tag) ready to show the first person on duty. You will be guided by our staff members to proceed through the line and to the correct spot where your child will be waiting for you. Remember to pull up close and to put your car in park! Please also either put your car tag on a hanger to hang on the rearview mirror or be prepared to hold it up for callers. We are not able to see them when they are laid on the dashboard.
Important Reminders:
- You MUST have your car tag to pick-up your child. You will show the tag to the first person on duty in the car line. If you need more car tags, please let your child's teacher know.
- If you forget your car tag, you will need to park and bring your driver's license to the front door. We will make you a new tag and then you will need to get back in line.
- ECC staff members are NOT responsible for seat belts. If you need to buckle up your child, please turn right on Bell St. and take care of it there.
- Parents CANNOT get out of their vehicles in the car line for safety reasons and to keep traffic flowing.
- If it is ever necessary to change the way a student is to go home from his/her normal routine, please call the office BEFORE 2:00 P.M. Front office phone number is (903) 881-4400.
