We hope you'll join us!

👋 During Orientation, Kindergarteners and their families will find out who their teacher is, tour the school, and review school and classroom procedures.

🚨 Kindergarten students MUST attend orientation with a parent or guardian. Your kindergartener will go home with you after Orientation at 10:30am.

⭐️ The first day of school for Kindergarten students is Wednesday, August 12th.

🎉 Hey, Rockets! Tomorrow is our last day of school AND it's Field Day!

Here's what you need to know:

🚨 Field Day is on our Last Day of School, tomorrow, May 28th. It is a FULL SCHOOL DAY from 8:50am - 4:03pm.

⏰ If you volunteered to help us run a station for Field Day, please plan to be at Endeavor 15 minutes before your station starts.

🩳 Please send your student to school WEARING clothes they can get wet and messy in! We suggest shorts and a tank top!

🎒 Please also send your student to school with a change of clothes for them to change into at the end of the day. (Don't forget to send extra underwear!) Please also send your student with a bag they can put their wet/messy clothes in - an old grocery bag works great!

👟 Please send your student to school with shoes that can get wet. Sandals, crocs, flip flops, slides etc. are the best option. If possible, please avoid sending your student in sneakers - they will get wet and become difficult to wear.

💧 Please send your student to school with a water bottle with their name on it. We want to keep everyone hydrated and we won't have easy access to water fountains throughout the day.

☀️ We encourage you to apply sunscreen to your student before school so hopefully no one gets a sunburn!

🚨 This event is intended for current Endeavor Students and the family members that volunteered to run stations. While we love and miss our previous Endeavor students, older siblings of our students are not permitted to attend. Thank you for helping keep our students safe!

🚀 We are going to have so much fun with you tomorrow, Endeavor!

👋 Hi, Rockets!

🚨 Remember, TOMORROW, MAY 27TH, is Pajama Day!

😴 We filled all three windows on our "Caught-Ya" Rocket! Yay! Students and staff are invited to wear their pajamas to school to celebrate!

🚀 Have a great night, Endeavor!

🌟 Hi, Rockets! Here's what's happening this week at Endeavor:

🎉 Our Annual CASH CLASH Fundraiser wraps up this week! Remember, this fundraiser was previously known as "Penny Wars" but the penny has been discontinued so we renamed it!) We'll announce our second week's winner during announcements tomorrow morning!
Here's how to play:
💸 Students can bring coins and/or cash to school to add to their classroom’s piggy bank.
💰 The value of the coin = the number of points earned or subtracted. (1 quarter = 25 points, 1 dime = 10 points, etc.)
🚨 WEDNESDAYS are “CLASH DAYS!" On Clash Days, depositing coins or cash into OTHER classroom's piggy banks will REMOVE POINTS from a class's total points.
🏆 Each week the class with the highest total has the chance to win prizes!
🚌 All the money we earn through Cash Clash will be used to pay for field trips, end of year celebrations, and student supplies!
📆 This fundraiser ends May 21st.
💪 Good luck, and may the best class WIN!

👟 Some of our 4th and 5th Graders are representing Endeavor at the 4th and 5th Grade Cluster Track Meet this Thursday, May 21st. The track meet is at Columbia High School from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. You're invited to join us too cheer on our students. We hope to see you there! We're so proud of them!

☀️ Field Day is coming up on the Last Day of School, Thursday, May 28th. Field Day is an EARNED event for students. Just like with our Pirates of Penzance Field Trip, students will earn punches to participate. They earn punches by demonstrating our school pillars - respectful, responsible, safe, kind, and present. If you have questions about your student's punches, please contact your student's teacher directly.

🚀 Have a great week, Endeavor!
