Mid-October Updates
October 15, 2024
Hello Eisenhower Families,
Our Eisenhower team works hard to create a welcoming environment in which every child and family feels comfortable. A few years back, as a collective team, we made the decision to move away from celebrating Halloween to celebrate the fall season instead. Classroom teachers will be communicating their plans directly with students and families if they have not yet done so.
Fall is definitely here as there is a chill in the air. Unless the temperature is below zero and/or the windchill is -10 or below, students will be going out for a 30 minute recess each day. Please be sure to send students to school prepared to go out for recess each day. If you need resources for winter gear, please reach out to one of our school social workers.

In partnership and appreciation,
Principal DeRung

Hike for Ike
We raised $16,007.14 beating our $15,000 goal!!
We’re extremely thankful for all our parents, teachers, friends/family, and students who supported our school with donations. Our Hike for Ike event was a BLAST! We loved seeing the families mingle and the kids having fun–even when the sprinklers came on! All funds raised will be used to support Eisenhower Elementary this school year and fund our soccer field.
THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT!
