Amazing First Week!!
Dear Parents,
We are wrapping up the best first week I think we've ever had! It has been nothing short of joyful to see all of our students and get to start settling in for a new year. The children have all done such a great job already learning their new routines. We've seen so many smiling faces and really just the most precious children on earth.
This year we have two new Assistant Principals, Mrs. Briggs and Mrs. Patz! They are doing an amazing job and each day just cannot believe we get to call this work. We are super grateful to have them join our team. As you see them out and about, be sure to introduce yourself.
September 6th is CURRICULUM NIGHT! This is a night for parents only. You will go to your child's classroom to hear a presentation by your child's teacher about routines, procedures, and all that your child will learn this year. This night does include all class types: ALC, SLC, PPCD, Pre-K, Bilingual Pre-K, Head Start Pre-K, PLC, PSC, and PFIG! We look forward to this time together, as this will give you great information on details you need to partner with us for a successful year. It does begin promptly at 5:30, so please be on time. We look forward to this time with you!
Is there another parent or caregiver that would like to receive my weekly emails? Just email us at earlychildhood@friscoisd.org and give us that person's name and email address. We are happy to add them to my distribution list!
For Kids,
Melissa Ellis
Principal
Early Childhood School
Check out this video our AP, Mrs. Patz, made of our first week!
READY ROSIE - Coming September 12th!
Your teacher will give you more information about this at Curriculum Night. As of September 12th, you will begin receiving short videos that your teacher has specifically chosen to fit your child's class and level. We are so excited about this resource and hope you love it!

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. We've had two posts so far this year! Thanks!
