Salutations, Eames Way Families!

First and foremost, THANK YOU to all of the students and families who joined me on Monday afternoon on the EWS playground for popsicles! It was absolutely delightful to meet so many of our families and students -- and to share some stories and start learning the names of our Eames Way children!

A good time was had by all, and as one participant put it: "the smiles and the happiness are contagious!" I couldn't have asked for a more positive first experience as your principal and look forward to more opportunities for us to smile, laugh, and gather as a school community in the future.

I hope you all continue to enjoy the summer and look forward to spending more time with your children in a couple of weeks!

With Best Wishes,

Ms. Bishop, Principal

Kindergarten Playdate

The EWS PTO would like to invite you and your kindergartner to a playdate on Friday, August 25 on the EWS playground. If there is inclement weather, the playdate will be hosted in the EWS gymnasium.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO HAVING YOU JOIN US!

Kindergarten Orientation

Kindergarten orientation is Tuesday, August 30 by appointment. At the orientation, you and your child will have an opportunity to meet their kindergarten teacher, begin to make new friends, and even practice riding a school bus!

Earlier this week, all kindergarten families were sent an email with your child's scheduled orientation time and their assigned group. Please call the school if you did not receive an email so that we can ensure arrangements have been made.

We are excited to share that Eames Way School will be adopting the PickUp Patrol (PUP) App this school year! PickUp Patrol allows families to electronically make daily dismissal changes from a computer or smart phone.

Stay tuned for more information on how to set up and access the PickUp Patrol App!

Before and After School Enrollment is now open for families!

Every three years our parent/guardian CORI forms need to be updated in order to volunteer at school events. This year marks the beginning of a three year term, so every parent/guardian that would like to volunteer needs to complete a new form this year.

Please click here for the form and submit by bringing this to the front office with your license. You do have the option to have the form notarized and sent in with a copy of your license if you cannot come to the school.
