HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE ECC, WHO OFFICIALLY HIT THE ONE-YEAR MARK SINCE OPENING LAST FALL!
We absolutely love seeing our Little Owls on campus each day and can't wait to watch them grow up!
Congratulations to ECC Director Stephanie Guerrero and the entire ECC Staff for making our school community feel complete!
NOTE: The Wild Robot is rated PG. To allow younger students to enjoy movie night,
we will be showing Toy Story (rated G) in the cafeteria.
Our Annual Grandfriend's Day(s) will begin in the cafeteria at 9:00 AM.
Guests will then transition to classrooms where they will spend the majority of their morning enjoying a special activity and/or presentation planned just for them!
The morning will end with a photo op in the courtyard before wrapping up. Students are encouraged to stay for the day, but are welcome to leave early and spend quality time with their visitor.
NOTE: If a visitor is unable to attend their designated day, no problem! Simply pick which day works best for your family and schedule.
We are looking forward to seeing our fantastic Grandfriends as we head into Thanksgiving Break!
