Good Morning ELC families! I hope you are enjoying your day off today! First and foremost I would like to thank all the staff members for their hardwork and dedication to the ELC students. Today marks the end of Teacher Appreciation week but we all know that we appreciate them everyday! Thank you to the PTO for supporting the ELC staff and students! They are purchasing popsicles for our students next week and have provided staff with little tokens of appreciate throughout the week. Just a reminder as it is getting warmer and sunnier to put sunscreen on your students prior to them attending school so they don't get burnt while on the playground and especially during their field day next week! Please enjoy this week's ELC Panda Press https://www.smore.com/4bqj0
