English Village Family Edition

Greetings, EV Families!

We hope that this message finds you all well and finishing a nice weekend. We will keep it short and sweet...Thank you, thank you, thank you for a successful 2023-24 school year. We have truly enjoyed working with you all and your children. They have accomplished and grown so much! This was made possible by your support, both at home and inside our school building. We greatly appreciate your commitment to being our partners in your children's education! Please keep that up as they move through the grade levels.

We will most definitely enjoy this last week with our students and you all! It has truly been a pleasure and we look forward to seeing returning students and their families in September. For those students moving up to third grade, we wish you all the best and will miss you!

Thank you again, take care, and have a fun and safe Summer!

Sincerely,

Jason Lewis
