Esther Jackson Elementary PTA

☀️🐆 Summer Play Date Thread for EJE Families!

Looking for ways to help your Jaguars stay connected this summer? Use this thread to organize casual play dates with other Esther Jackson families!

Great meetup spots might include:
• Esther Jackson playground
• East Roswell Park
• Martin’s Landing playground
• Other family-friendly parks and spaces nearby

If you’d like to host a play date, comment with:
📍 Location
📅 Date & time
👧 Ages/grades of your kids

If you plan to join, REPLY to the comment with your child’s age/grade so families can connect easily!

To help keep this thread useful for everyone, try to post planned meetups rather than last-minute “we’re here now!” park/pool visits.

This thread is intended for current and incoming Esther Jackson families. Happy summer, Jaguars! ☀️

📸 Let’s see those first day vs. last day photos! Drop them in the comments so we can celebrate how much our students have grown this year. 💙

Wishing all of our Esther Jackson families a fun, safe, and relaxing summer break. Thank you for being part of such an amazing Jaguar community this year!

And congratulations to all of our graduating 5th graders! We’re so proud of you. Don’t forget to come back and visit - you’ll always be welcome at PTA events like Movie Night and the Spring Carnival and can even volunteer to help run the events! 💛

FREE SUMMER MEALS - Available for all children under 18
