Student Arrival and Dismissal RemindersThe traffic expectations listed below help to keep our children safe and expedite the process of getting our children to and from school. Please be attentive and follow the guidance of our staff members! You will see them directing traffic, helping children exit cars, and ensuring the safety of our students. Traffic Expectations Lunchroom UpdatesThis past week our 3rd-5th graders have done an excellent job of demonstrating the 3C’s in the lunchroom. We went back to homeroom tables to reteach these expectations while also introducing “table captains”. Our 30 student “table captains” help ensure we are keeping our lunchroom safe and clean! We are looking forward to open seating next week as we maintain our 3C’s expectations! Soccer Collection for Kids in NeedWe are collecting new and used soccer equipment for kids participating in ESCO's community outreach soccer programs. Collection Boxes will be in our Commons over the next couple of weeks! The youth in these programs do not have the means to play organized soccer let alone afford the necessary equipment. ITEMS NEEDED: Soccer equipment for kids in grades 2-5 (soccer cleats, shin guards, and size 4 soccer balls). ESCO is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization located in Arlington Heights.
