Dear Families,

It is hard to believe that we are heading into our last week of school together. Over the past year, our students have grown in so many ways- taller in height, kinder in spirit, more empathetic, and stronger academically. It is fitting that our thought of the week was “we are better together.” This sentiment truly resonates with our experience. Together, we have climbed mountains, accomplished challenging tasks, overcome obstacles, and developed deep, lasting friendships. As an ECC family, your partnership with us has been invaluable. I must also pause and thank our incredible staff of educators. The ECC teachers are a mix of incredible talent, dedication and passion. They have tirelessly supported our students, nurturing their growth and inspiring their curiosity. Their commitment to excellence has made a profound difference in the lives of our students. 

As we head into next week, please be sure that you have reviewed the flyer below. All week students are dismissed at 11:30. The afternoons are reserved for parent conferences. If you have not already, be sure to check Seesaw and choose a time to conference with your child’s teacher. 

A message from Dr. Schecter for Kindergarten Families ONLY:   

School supply kits for next year are on sale now. Please follow the link to order. Pre-ordered school supply kits will be in your child's classroom on the first day of school. For those who enjoy choosing your own school supplies, you will find the list here. 

End of year parties: Parties will be hosted on May 24 from 10:30 - 11:30 a.m. We invite you to join in on the fun. Please note, Clayton will not be available on May 24. 

Summer Camp:
Pickleball, soccer, American Girl Doll Party? The options are endless when it comes to our “Summer at the Ridge” Summer Camp Program. It’s not too late to sign your child (or your neighbor’s child!) up for Summer Camps. See flyer for details.
