Easley Weekly Update
Everything You Need to Know for the coming week.
April 16, 2023
a note from the principal
I hope everyone had a great weekend!
This week our third through fifth grade students will be taking the mock EOG on Tuesday and Thursday. This district assessment will provide teachers with information about areas in which our students still need additional support during the last quarter of the school year.
Spring Book Fair
We’re excited to host our upcoming Bedford Falls Book Fair. This event is an opportunity for students of all ages to build their home libraries and further their love of reading. As always, all purchases benefit our library. Since it is a different company, things will be a little different than in the Fall. Here’s what you need to know about the Fair:
- The fair will take place from Monday April 24th- Thursday 27th from 7:15-3:00 and on Friday April 28th from 7:15-10:00. The book fair will close at Friday at 10:00, so please keep that in mind when planning your shopping. Parents are welcome to come anytime during those hours.
- Please check the Easley homepage and Bloomz for info regarding credit card pre-authorization options you can set up for students
Please contact caroline_hartley@dpsnc.net with any questions.
This Friday: PTA Book Fair Pizza Party
We are excited to be kicking off the spring book fair with a pizza party from 6 pm- 7:30 pm this Friday, April 21st. Bring your lawn chairs and outdoor games and relax with the Easley community, and shop at the book fair.
The PTA will be providing one piece of pizza, a drink and a dessert for each Easley student and their immediate family members. Donations will be accepted, but are not expected.
