EVE Weekly Director's Highlights

We are excited for tonight's Fall Festival! There will be food, fun, and lots of candy. Bring your family out for one of our biggest events of the year. Remember there will be a costume contest and photo booth. The snow cone truck will be here as well. Tickets are $5 at the door for all children ages 4 and up. Adults get in free. Saddle up for a wild night!

We kicked off Red Ribbon Week with speakers from Arkansas State Fusion Center and Arkansas Counterdrug provide a presentation about the risks of vaping, smoking, and drug use to our 5th and 6th grade classes. Students will have the opportunity to participate in a poster contest on drug prevention this week and have a few dress out days. Take a look at our flyer for more information.

This week we also kicked off Heart Week to inform our students about bullying prevention. On Wednesday, students dressed like celebrities because "Everyone is a STAR at EVE!" Today students said "BOO to Bullying!" and wore their Halloween costumes. Take a look at some of our celebrities and their costumes.

We have started our biggest fundraiser of the year! Otis Spunkmeyer and Holiday Gifts. Our goal is for each family to sell 10 plus items so we can meet our goal of $15,000! Please watch this short video to see how to help your child get started today. Our goal is for every family to Register and Share the fundraiser digitally with friends and family who will support your child and our school. Be sure to check out the video of all the awesome prizes your child can win!

Check-outs should be reserved for medical appointments or emergencies only. When students are checked out early, they are missing important instruction.

• A student may be checked out of school in the case of an emergency or for a medical appointment. Please provide documentation to the office for appointment.

• The student will be released from class when the parent/guardian arrives at the student’s school office.

• No check-outs after 2:00 p.m.

• Early check-out may not be used to avoid the carpool line.

• Early check-outs will be monitored and excessive use may result in parent conference with Administration.

• Early check-out also causes your student to miss very important instruction at the end of the day and can be counted towards tardies and absences.

If you have an address, email, or phone number change, please email those changes to our registrar, Mrs. Ginny Parker, at Ginny.Parker@estemschools.org. This helps us make sure our records are up to date and so we can provide you with pertinent information.

eStem East Village Elementary is a uniform school. It is expected that all students wear the prescribed uniform each school day. (Exception of paying $1 to dress out of dress code for cash for casual on Fridays only). Any student who is not in uniform is subject to the provisions of the “Dress Code” section of the eStem Dress Code Violation Policy in the student handbook.

The dress code will be strictly enforced, and the Director of School has final authority on all matters relating to the other dress code. Repeated violations of the dress code will result in detention, loss of privileges, or suspension. If a student misses class due to a dress code violation, the student will be responsible for making up any missed work.
