UPCOMING EVENTS

Join us TONIGHT for our third grade musical

SCHOOL HOUSE ROCKS Our third graders have been working extra hard to get ready for

their musical tonight. Students should arrive no later than 6:15 wearing their

School House Rocks shirt and the musical will start promptly at 6:30. If they

did not order a shirt, please have them wear a red shirt . You must enter the

building through the front doors. DOORS WILL OPEN AT 6:10! Due to

the limited size of our cafeteria, ESE can not accommodate community members

or extra spectators at our musicals. We ask that it be limited to family of the

participants in the musical that night. Thank you for your understanding!

Sincerely,

AUSTIN OR BUST!!!!! We will be having an END OF THE YEAR FUN

RUN on Friday May 20th to help our 3rd Graders get to Austin next year!!! All funds

raised will be used to reduce the cost of the field trip to Austin. Kona Ice will be there

selling snow cones and water. A percentage of those proceeds will be donated to 4th grade

for the field trip. All funds raised will benefit each student equally across the grade level.

Please see page 6 for more information and registration details.

ESE is raising awareness and money for the Crohn’s & Colitis

Foundation of America (CCFA.org) during a Fun Run this Friday,

May 6 during Specials. Students are asked to consider making a

$1.00 donation during the Fun Run. This disease has closely af-

fected Mrs. Garber (Kindergarten,) Mrs. Pierce (Science Lab,)

and their families.

You can also join us at the Houston Zoo!

Our team will be walking in the Houston Take Steps for the Crohn's & Colitis. We will raise

money for crucial research, bringing us closer to a future free from Crohn's disease and

ulcerative colitis. Over 1.6 million American adults and children are affected by these

digestive diseases. It will also benefit Camp Oasis, a summer camp program that en-

riches the lives of children with Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis.

Please join our team or donate to our efforts to support CCFA in finding cures!
