The Emerson School

Delicious dinner! Thanks for donating the wine for the meal as they were the perfect pairings!

In January we started collecting memories. Memories that made us smile, made us happy, and made us laugh! Here are some of our favorites…

This evening our 5th graders graduate and we could not be prouder!

It’s Spirit Week at Emerson! This is a chance for students (and staff!) to dress up, be silly, and be in community. Please note that all dress up days are fully OPTIONAL and no one should be spending a whole lot of time and/or money to make them work. Just do what feels right for you and your family to have fun!

Walking down the hall and seeing a giant vase of flowers on the wall definitely made me smile today! What made you smile this week?

Jenny, Miss Jamie, and Ray are ready for Magic School Bus Day: Dinosaur edition!

We’re still smiling over here at The Emerson School 💛

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, The Great Otter Chase didn’t just meet our goal — we surpassed it, raising an amazing $11,156 for Emerson students and programming! 🦦✨

That meant:
🌈 Jenny’s hair went rainbow (thanks for the hair!)
🧊 Students earned Otter Pops
🥧 And one very excited student got to be pied in the face, their choice

We are so grateful to every family, donor, volunteer, and supporter who helped make this event such a joyful success. Happy Monday, Otter community — thank you for showing up in such a big way for our students! 💛

What a great Otter Chase day! Huge thanks to for helping with the medals and after run fun! Thanks too to and for volunteering their time to make the day extra special!

And guess what?! We crushed our fundraising goal so come Monday Jenny’s hair will be a different color!

We are SO CLOSE, Otters! 🦦🎨

If we want to dye Jenny’s hair, we need to reach our $10,000 Great Otter Chase goal by the end of day Friday! Every donation gets us closer, and there’s still time to help push us across the finish line. 💙🏃‍♀️

Let’s do this, Emerson! 👀✨
