We are so excited and deeply grateful for our partnership between Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) and Amazon! Thanks to their incredible generosity, a portion of our EJES students received bags packed with brand-new books to build their very own home libraries! 🎉🎒

At EJES, we believe literacy is the foundation for a bright future. Reading builds confidence, sparks curiosity, expands imaginations, and opens doors to endless possibilities. Having books readily available at home plays a huge role in developing lifelong learning habits.

A massive THANK YOU to Reading Is Fundamental and Amazon for investing in our students and helping us foster a love for reading across our school community! Partnerships like this make a lasting impact on our kids. 💙

Our students have officially begun planting in the greenhouse! From getting their hands in the soil to learning what plants need to grow, our students are getting real-world, hands-on experience.

We are excited to watch these little seeds grow while our students learn about plant life cycles, agriculture, and the importance of where our food comes from.

🦅 What an unforgettable adventure at Rock Eagle! Our 5th graders are heading home today after an incredible 2 night trip filled with outdoor learning, teamwork, and amazing grade-level bonding. Watching our 5th graders grow closer and make lifelong memories together was truly special! 🌿🌲

A HUGE thank you to the wonderful Rock Eagle staff and our phenomenal 5th-grade teachers and chaperones for going above and beyond to make this trip so smooth, safe, and memorable! 👏❤️

And the timing couldn't be better—our tired travelers (and even more tired teachers! 😴) will be pulling into school and stepping right into Fall Break! Thank goodness for some well-deserved rest and relaxation. Enjoy the break, Eagles! 🦅
