Principal's Message
Hello AEEC Families!
We blinked, and somehow May is already here! There is so much to celebrate as we reflect on the 23-24 school year. Students have grown socially, academically, and emotionally. It has been a joy to see the friendships that have been made.
During this final month, our second graders will close an important chapter in their lives as AEEC students. We are so incredibly proud of the close-knit bonds among classmates and peers, relationships formed with their teachers, and the leadership that they possess. It will be hard to say good-bye, but we are so excited about the future that lies ahead. We will celebrate our second graders on May 17th. Families of second grade students are invited to the Surfin' AEEC Performance/Sendoff at 9am. Please see the flyer for details.
On the other hand, we are very eager to welcome rising kindergarteners to AEEC. Please check out the “Welcome Information for New Students and Families” tab on our school webpage. You may access the school store, order school supplies, join PTO, learn about AEEC, and so much more.
Supply kits are available for purchase. This is an easy, efficient way to purchase your school supplies for the upcoming school year. Go to www.shopttkits.com. The AEEC School Account Number is 33609. The deadline to order is May 31st.
If you would like to purchase school spirit wear, please visit https://tinyurl.com/2bykc6bz. Students will wear the school t-shirt on field trips and are encouraged to wear them on Pep Rally days.
AEEC students will meet their homeroom teachers at our "Meet the Teacher" event on August 6th. Drop by AEEC anytime between 10:00am and 12 noon.
Our theme for next year is SHINE Brighter! We will continue our school wide behavior initiative, writing goals, and strategic planning. The focus will remain on student growth through collaboration and effective feedback. This theme is an expression of our core beliefs around the importance of working together in a way that we lift each other up and help each other to grow better and stronger each day.
We are very fortunate to continue to make upgrades to the school building this summer. We will have new paint plus lighting and building upgrades. We love our school building and continue to appreciate its beauty as well as its functionality.
I hope everyone embraces each day in May. Enjoy creating your summer plans and be sure to check out all of the opportunities that our incredible city has to offer. Thank you for your continued support as we work to close out this year and prepare for the upcoming year!
Sincerely,
Glori Lammons
