EVE Weekly Director's Highlights

Thank you to everyone that came out to our Fall festival. The weather was amazing, there was plenty of candy, and the students had fun. We enjoyed seeing all of the costumes and we can't wait to see what will be in store for our spring festivities. More family activities will be coming soon so be on the look out!

Congratulations to the 2024 3rd-6th grade homeroom spelling bee winners! They will move on to the school wide spelling bee November 21st at 4:30. Everyone is welcome to come watch and support the spellers. A huge thank you goes out to Mrs. Tucker for always working so diligently with our students to allow them the opportunity to participate in the spelling bee each year.

For this month’s incentive, students received a gift bag, and their names were entered in a drawing for a Walmart gift card! We are excited to celebrate the students that exemplify excellent behavior each month. Fostering a spirit of excellence means that we hold our students accountable and have high expectations for their behavior in and outside of the classroom. Thank you to our Deans, Mr. Johnson and Mrs. Youngblood, for supporting all of the students at EVE!

This month we celebrated our students who exude the characteristic of "Authenticity". Congratulations to all of our students that were selected as character kids.

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.
