Notes from the East Hill Principal: Here Comes Summer!

Here Comes Summer!
It has certainly been a strange ending to the 19-20 school year. I have missed the staff and students terribly and am staying hopeful that we will be able to return in the fall. If your children are looking for things to keep them engaged over the summer, in addition to reading (which they should do every day), please have them check out the distance learning portal where all of the weekly activities provided by our librarians, music teachers, art teachers, and counselors are archived. They can also return to any unfinished work that was assigned by their teachers in Google Classroom, or complete some of the activities in the CKLA workbooks that were sent home. I hope everyone stays productive, active and healthy over the summer!

5th Grade Recognition
This is just a reminder that the 5th Grade Drive-Thru Recognition Ceremony will be held this coming Monday, June 15th (with Tuesday, June 16th as a rain date). Miss Button's class will begin at 9:30 followed by Mrs. McDonald's class at 10:00. We will conclude with Mr. Meaney's class at 10:30. Please do not arrive early and remember that there will not be access to the building on this day. We look forward to seeing you! Next week we will be sending out the 5th Grade Virtual Recognition Ceremony Slideshow that Mrs. MacArthur has been hard at work producing. I think you will love it! Here's a sneak peek at the first slide!

School Supply Drive

Pictures from Home

I have loved seeing all of the great artwork that students are completing at home. Here are just some of the recent pictures I saw on Facebook.
