4th Grade Research Project
Retired EGE teacher Bill Turner was a guest presenter in the library this week to launch a 4th grade project. He has a cross-section of a 300 (!) year old Penn oak that he is using to create an interactive local history display. Our 4th graders have been tasked with doing the research to match significant historical events to the tree rings. This library project will take several weeks and is an amazing way to learn PA history for social studies that has a real world application and audience.

Information on Updated Dismissal Process
Dear EGE Families,
I hope this message finds you well. I want to inform you about a small change to our dismissal procedures. Recently, I met with Dr. Missett and Wayne Birster (Director of Facilities) to review the results of a traffic study conducted a couple of weeks ago. As we anticipated, dismissal has been a significant concern, with some days experiencing a 30-minute backup on Paoli Pike. The township has been collaborating with us to address this issue.
To help manage traffic better, we will be opening the outer gate at 2:45 PM. This will allow cars to pull up to the top of the driveway (upper loop), where cones and a metal bar will prevent them from entering the lower loop. We hope this change will help clear about 10 more cars off Paoli Pike. This new process will begin on Monday, October 21st.
We will continue to monitor the traffic at dismissal time and make future adjustments as needed.
