Notes from East Hill Elementary
October 20, 2023
Message from East Hill Principal
Dear East Hill Elementary School Families,
What an amazing week celebrating the joys of reading!
Thank you to all of our family members that were able to come to EH and be guest readers in classrooms for PARP. This is such a special time and the students love to have special guests visit and spend time in the classroom.
Congratulations to all of our Wildcats at EH for meeting the reading goal for our PARP celebration! I told the students at our PARP kickoff last week that if they worked hard and met the goal I would ride a unicorn to school and they did so I did! We have included a few pictures of arrival this morning below.
A HUGE thank you to our EH PTA, volunteers, and Officer Clarke for making our Pumpkin Walk such a success! Many students and families came out on Thursday evening to see the decorated pumpkins, enjoy a donut, see creative costumes, and have fun with friends! It was a gorgeous fall evening and everyone had a great time. We have included pictures of this event below.
Keep reading Wildcats!

Congratulations to this week's Wildcat WOW prize winners!
PTA Directory Deadline Extended!
Every year the East Hill PTA creates classroom directories for our families. Each student will get a copy for their grade level. These directories can be used for families to contact each other to coordinate play dates, birthday parties, etc. The information gathered is used for social purposes and not used for solicitation of any kind.
If you would like your information to be included in the directory please fill out this questionnaire by Wednesday, October 25. Paper copies went home in backpacks this week.
Notes from the PTA
Our Scholastic book fair continues for online shopping until 10/22! Sales from the book fair are how we fund and fill our Book Vending Machine, so that every student gets to pick a brand new book on their birthday— your purchases mean so much to us!
There is still time to join the PTA! Membership does not commit you to volunteering at any events or attending meetings. It's truly the easiest way to support the programs that have a direct benefit to your child! It’s also a great way to be able to go to the classroom parties! Click here to join!
Please join our Facebook page, so you have the most up to date information on events and volunteer opportunities!
Our next meeting is on 11/15 at 6 pm in the East Hill library. We’d love to see you!
As always, email us with any questions you have or if you would like to volunteer at any of our events: wgehpta@westgenesee.org
