Eastside Elementary School

Dear Parents and Guardians,

I am looking forward to another wonderful school year at Eastside Elementary School! I know we are starting this school year under difficult circumstances, however together we will get through this. Please stay tuned for updates as the start of the school year approaches. The first day of school is now Monday, August 17th. Keep in touch with us through Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube. We will hold our morning news live on YouTube starting on Monday, August 17th during our digital learning time-frame. Once the students are back in the building, we will use the WBNN program again.

School Based Digital Learning Schedule

Please stay tuned for information pertaining to our Title I Program. We will following meetings this school year:

• Title I Parent Input Meeting
• Annual Title I Meeting
• Parent Advisory Council Meetings
• Parent Academic Nights

We are doing some really creative things with our Title I budget this school year! Mr. Jenkins cannot wait to share what we are putting in place to help our students meet and/or exceed their academic goals. We are asking that you support our Title I Program, because we are holding all of our meeting virtually until further notice. Mr. Jenkins will live stream the meetings and the teachers will also live stream their meetings when applicable. Mrs. Gillham will continue to serve as our Parent Outreach Facilitator.

Eastside Elementary School will be implementing AVID this school year for those students in grades 3rd, 4th, and 5th. AVID stands for Advancement Via Individual Determination. There are many components of the program, however we are starting with the following:

• Organization for student binders
• Student binders
• Student agendas

Mr. Jenkins is happy to reassure everyone that this is not "another thing to do." We are already employing many of the program principles at Eastside Elementary School. The program also focuses on preparing students for college and careers. All the teachers in the building decided to decorate their bulletin boards with either a college focus or a career focus. We will take pictures and share them on our social media pages.

We will be providing more information throughout the school year!
