EJPS Week at a Glance (April 14 - 18)
Chers parents,
We had another great week filled with engaging learning. Our students are moving forward at a good pace in all areas of the curriculum and as a whole school we are starting the work towards our school-wide Education Week Art Gallery for families on May 7 and 8th where each class will contribute to sharing their learning in creative ways around the intersection of self awareness, well-being and visual arts. Additionally, we will have our Willy Wonka musical which involves 40+ junior students on May 7 and 8 in the evening in coordination with our spring Book Fair. As the date approaches we will share more details.
In other news, we held effective fire and severe weather drill exercises this week where our students and staff followed the procedures with great precision and in a timely manner. We learned about some areas of improvement and will continue to always look to do better.
In preparation for the upcoming Easter long weekend, EJPS has organized and EXTENDED our food drive to support the Wyndham House from April 7-17. Please consider supporting this effort by sending in non-perishable food items with your child.
