🎄🍽️ December Lunch Menu 🍽️🎄
It’s the most wonderful (and shortest!) school month of the year! 🌟 Check out the delicious meals planned to keep our Panthers fueled for learning and holiday fun. 🐾✨
📅 Reminder: Winter break starts soon, so let’s make the most of the days we have!


🌿 Introducing the Brand New Hammock Garden at EES! 🌿
We’re so excited to share our new Hammock Garden, a unique outdoor space for students to engage with their learning in a fresh and fun way! 📚✨
Being outside during the school day is so beneficial, and this garden offers a wonderful opportunity for students to enjoy the fresh air, whether they’re attending class outdoors or reading a book of their choice in a hammock. 🏕️📖
A huge thank you to the Ellsworth Community Foundation EXCELLS Grant for funding the hammocks and to the OST Grant for supporting the framework. Thanks to these grants, we were able to purchase supplies and get everything built over the summer. 🌞
A special shout out to our incredible custodial team who worked hard to make this space so inviting for our students! 💪
This is just the beginning of outdoor learning at EES, and we can’t wait to see how students enjoy this new space! 🌳







❄️ Winter Recess Reminder from EES! ❄️
As temperatures drop, students need to dress appropriately for outdoor recess! 🧥🧤👢
Check out this helpful guide to ensure your child has the right gear for the "feels like" temperature. Don't forget to pack labeled winter gear in their backpack, including jackets, snow pants, hats, gloves, and boots.
Let's keep everyone warm, safe, and ready for some fun in the snow! ⛄


🩺 A Message from the School Nurse 🩺
We want to remind families about important guidelines to help keep everyone healthy this season:
🌡️ Fever: If your child has a fever of 100.0°F or higher, they should remain at home until they are fever-free for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medication.
🤢 Vomiting or Diarrhea: If your child experiences vomiting or excessive diarrhea (three or more episodes within 24 hours), they can return to school once they have been free of symptoms for 24 hours.
We’ve been seeing cases of mono, gastroenteritis (stomach flu), Influenza A, strep throat, and respiratory illnesses such as croup and bronchitis.
🔍 Please monitor your student’s health closely before sending them to school. If they are feeling unwell with symptoms like fever, vomiting, or diarrhea, allow them to recover at home to help reduce the spread of illness within our buildings.
Your efforts make a big difference in keeping everyone well. Thank you for your cooperation and care!
