Message From The Principal

Dear ELC & LS Parents,

It’s been a fantastic week of fun and literacy with Literature Week 2024: “Reading is Magic”. Thank you for all your support in getting your children dressed up for each day from Tuesday to Friday this week.

We still have one literacy event this morning, the Grade 4 Wax Museum of Heroes for Social Justice. Drop by Gym 2 and get to meet and greet the different social justice heroes that have made a difference in the lives of many. Congratulations to our fourth grade class for all the hard work they’ve put into this project for all to see and experience.

House Spell-ing Bee was also a major success and salutations are in order! Congratulations to AZURE House for coming out as the top House in this year’s Spelling Bee competition. A big CONGRATULATIONS as well to our grade level champions!!!

Mr. Martin Chatterton will be on campus this March 19-20, Tuesday and Wednesday as our International Author Visit 2024 guest speaker. Mr. Chatterton is a British/Australian writer, illustrator, performer and producer. He has written a number of books for ages 3-11. The children cannot wait to meet him, learn more about his stories and be inspired to be authors, storytellers and illustrators themselves.

Finally, “Color Carnival Food Fest 2024” is happening tomorrow, March 16! Be ready for fun games, fabulous food and a fantastic flair of home grown talent! If you still have not purchased your tickets, today (Friday) is the last day to take advantage of the early bird rate. Get your game tickets in advance as well to skip the lines.

Warm regards,

Michelle R. Jingco
Principal

KIDISMS

Heroes of Social Justice

“Why do kids have to go to school and parents just stay at home?
That doesn’t seem fair.”

I don’t see any beds here.”

Three Wishes

“I wish I had three “Ates”. One will do the cleaning,
the next one will do the other cleaning and the third one will be in charge of playing.”
