Parents this is a reminder tomorrow Thursday ( 9/12) , is the absolute final day for coupon book orders.

Parents , I typically don't send out messages back to back, but I do believe that some things deserve to be shared by themselves. Tomorrow marks 23 years since the tragedy of 9/11. I can clearly remember the exact place and time where I was teaching during that moment. Please support those that made the ultimate sacrifice as we support Patriot Day by wearing Red, White and Blue.Thank you for your understanding and Thank you to ALL of our first responders.🦅

Hopefully by now many of you have received the weather alerts from the school district, please know if anything changes we will do our best to keep you informed.
With that being said we will continue to operate as usual. All students should have received there FIC cards today. Please take a moment to look over the information and return them to your child's teacher. These cards are very important so the Classes that return 100% will get ice cream 🦅

Parents,
As you noticed we have a few upcoming events and plenty more to come. We need your help. We will be having a PTO/PET meeting after school Monday @ 3:00 in the media center to discuss ways you can support EP and these events. I know we are all busy but I challenge you to see if you can spare just a few hours a month to help support Elliott Point Elementary. I look forward to seeing you there Monday @ 3:00 in the media center.
